Weather

About two weeks ago, we got home for the evening. As we were coming home I saw super dark clouds in the east. I was making dinner in the kitchen, and saw it getting darker and darker out. So I went to take pictures.

I went back inside, and a couple minutes later, super strong winds came flying through, whipping the trees around.



Then, it started to hail. Lots of large hail.










The hail began to melt, and it also started raining. It started backing up from the street into our driveway.



It runs down the drain, then empties into ours and the neighbor's back yards. Here's out little pool area that's flooded 6 feet out into the yard.

(within 30 minutes, all the water had dissipated)



And as suddenly as it all started, it stopped, and the sun came out again.
