Hail Yeah - Show Me A Shadow Round 164

avatar

Greetings, Friends!

Welcome to another week of the Shadow Hunters Contest!

Last weekend there were severe thunderstorms, heavy rains as well as the unique phenomenon called hail in the Midwest area where I live.

Within minutes the sunny skies darkened, blustery winds blew, followed by rapidly beating "ping pingping pingpingping" sounds of hail outside striking surfaces that echoed throughout my home.

Almost as soon as I hastily finished capturing video footage and photographs, the storm passed and the sun came out again. If you look closely at the images, you can see the lingering hail scattered in the grass.

Here is another set of photos of the shadows cast from the deck onto the hail-scattered lawn.

Lovely hail shadows! We do have hail storms to lookout for now, don't we? Thanks for including so much information about the community in your post! ♥️

It's my pleasure, Melinda! Thank you for starting and maintaining this awesome challenge and community throughout all the platforms. I always feel like there was someone I left out - hopefully not.

Hail and tornadoes are two of the worst weather scenarios we have to deal with the next couple of seasons. The insurance storm chasers already started calling & leaving pamphlets at the door for free estimates on our roof checking for hail damage. Sharks!

We had our first 70° day today. Storm season is upon us.

The hail is a disastrous for the crops. We have hail from time to time here too.
The shadow and edits are brilliant.

How very generous of you! @hive-179017

Thankfully the phenomenon doesn't happen that often but yes, it leaves a very damaging trail.
