Hail Report Information
Station Number: VA-FR-9
Station Name: Rocky Mount 6.4 NE
Date: 5/14/2010 2:45 PM
Submitted 5/15/2010 8:01 AM
Taken at registered location: True
Notes: This is my first hail report, but I WAS careful to note the times and go out to observe the ice. Individual stones were amazingly well-shaped, and looked like they had been frozen solid in tiny custard cups. There was a good deal more rain than hail; the storm began with heavy rain, then a hail/heavy rain mix, then more rain with lightening and LOUD thunder, neither of which were within a mile of my station. Power went out briefly just after rainfall stopped.
