This is nice. Still too warm to be quite like the North, but close. I think if I...hm...
[Scraping while he pushes his window open as far as it can go, and very faint straining noises while he leans as far out as he can, arm outstretched.]

Nice lightning, too...
[Sounds very happy, strained tone trailing off while he pulls back in most of the way. Thunder cracks and rumbles again.]
...It is not very big, is it? Just smaller than a grape. Oh well, I suppose any closer to a decent size would break things, hm? There is far too much repair work going on to want that sort of thing to happen just because I would like to see some proper hail.
