Seriously you could! There were reports of even bigger ping pong-sized hail a little bit to the east of where I am.

Was glad I wasn't outside when that started coming down! There was so much lightning it was even scary doing a quick dash to the covered front porch for a sample before it all melted.

I enjoy listening to thunder (and hail) rolling in from the safety of a covered porch/house.

Those look like decent sized hail stones.
Bigger than the ones I remember getting here (my state), and, perhaps, clearer too - but the lack of white stoney look could be due to increased size.

Me too - love a good thunderstorm! As long as I'm inside, and I'm not responsible for the safety and/or entertainment of a bunch of kids stuck inside.

I've seen hail in both clear and white versions, or combinations like this one - I think it has to do with the type of clouds it passes through when forming (water droplets vs water vapour or something like that).

Whoa, you got bigger hail than we did, ours was rock salt-size!

It was pretty amazing to watch it come down - like someone dumping a load of gravel from the sky!
