Storms produce big hail in parts of area

By Capital Weather Gang

* Much more tranquil, and refreshing: Full Forecast | UnitedCast *


Hail captured last evening in McLean, Va., by CWG visitor brucebogtrotter.

Hailstones as large as 1-2" in diameter (to around the size of golf balls) pelted parts of the D.C. area yesterday. (And yes, we realize some of you missed out completely with nary a drop of rain.) Check out the video below of hail in Bethesda, Md., last evening, taken by CWG visitor mistertx1.

Also, see lightning shots from CWG visitor Joseph D'Angelo.

Did you have hail where you live? How big? Feel free to post photos and/or videos...
