We had a hail storm come through this evening that made some cool hailstones. They were about golfball size in Amarillo and some baseball and tennis ball size farther east. Nothing unusual about the size of the hail in these parts but when they broke you could really see how hailstones are formed.

Look at the rings created with each cycle through the cloud.

These look just like the weather text book drawings I used to see in ATC weather class.

Golfball size hailstone in my hand.

The aftermath. No damage except for some leaves on the ground.
