X-D I mean before the hail STARTS! Most people can see a big thunderhead moving in and a hail curtain isn't hard to identify. (Then again, I'm a storm spotter so I'm trained to do that) But no, unless it was my stupid cat or something, I would not go after the hail started (not without some kind of cover anyway)

If you want to be the steak then go out and move it ... :-)

[EvilSpoofAuthor]

Just to make a dumb suggestion, shouldn't someone move those cycles? A hailstone the size of a softball hitting that bike is like a meat mallet on a porter house steak.

I promise if my town gets hit bad like in June 1975 i will have it on tape, even if i have to walk out on a job.

BTW A baseball size hailstorm stuck my town way back in 1975, We have been bloody lucky since then with at least a dozen hailstorms only a few miles out of town(4 in 2007 alone).

biggest hailstorm thus far was walnut sized June 30 2005.

Note we have had big hail since 1975 but in such a low amount it was barely noticeable.

Like in 2006 and 2007

Ack...hope you make out ok..I know how it feels, Calgary has been hit so many times.. You are the only one that got footage of the hail! Not that it's much consolation to you..
