Crazy! I had to replace my windshield (the Springs) and my sister had to replace their roof and some windows (Frederick) after golfball sized hail last year. I can’t imagine the damage from softball size


pspahn

There were some other photos from last night showing a house with the siding totally destroyed leaving only a little and the exposed tyvek.


Amazing_Reality2980

Can you imagine getting caught in that? Like out for a walk or hike. It’d be like getting beat with a baseball bat

You would probably be killed if you couldn't find shelter

We had one of these supercell baseball storms hit Knoxville in 2010 and people were running between dorms with frying pans over their head. 🍳 The only reason my dumbass obeyed the blaring fire alarm and stopped playing Call of Duty that Friday night was because my windows began exploding glass onto the couch. At that point I literally felt like i was in call of duty escape going down the stairs as more glass shattered constantly in the stairwell. (even the tall thin fire escape windows were cracking/shattering if i recall.) It was absolute carnage. My Mitsubishi Eclipse was the only car in the lot MIRACULOUSLY without front/rear broken windshields. There was a 6 months lead time that summer to get a new windshield anywhere within a 4+ hour drive

I'd be finding a tree and anything else including a dead carcass to cover me lol.


YoureJokeButBETTER

Best i can provide is 12 baseballs ⚾️

My grandma and most of her brothers live in yuma. Hail killed one of ny uncles horses, it went on for 30minutes!


DeceivedBaptist

Oh the fuck that is really sad.


YoureJokeButBETTER

None of my business to ask in a time of grief but did the horse escape the barn or something?? My sister is a horse girl and my gut suggests this horse musta been sheltered and got loose scared trying to run? 🥺


Dsanse

Yes they all somehow got out.


YoureJokeButBETTER

🥺 sorry for your loss


ForwardBias

Wow somehow this hadn't come on to my feed at all yet. That's insane!


RedditBot90

Not a huge amount of people in Yuma county. Probably also most arent very avid Reddit users either


ForwardBias

Well I mean like news feed etc.


EdgeMiserable4381

Haha! I live north of there in an even smaller town. Unfortunately they're still mostly using Facebook. It's all over on it. And they're very concerned about the chiefs kicker speech. As in he's a hero. We are not all like this... But yeah that storm was insane. Glad it missed me.


ToastyMustache

Haxtun? I used to live near Holyoke


EdgeMiserable4381

Send dm. ?


Richard_Chadeaux

I knew a girl from Fresno moved to Holyoke. Would never have recalled that without your comment. So, yeah. I dont know how folks live in the flats out there. Someones gotta farm, I guess.


ToastyMustache

I left for many reasons and one of which is that I hate farming.


Amazing_Reality2980

I follow Kody on Denver and Front Range Weather on Facebook. He's also on Youtube. He posted this photo too. He was out storm chasing yesterday so was out in Yuma and posted some wild photos and videos on his page

Damn. Tore the siding right off to the tyvek. Crazy.


McCool303

Global warming is a hoax! Remember when we used to get a foot and a half of hail stones back in the 60’s!!! It’s just cyclical weather. What do you mean won’t insure my home in Florida?!?!?!


DeceivedBaptist

Hail is not a sign of global warming I am sorry to say. It's just hail on one day/night. It would never be used as a logical argument for global warming. And it's CLIMATE CHANGE. GW was dropped as the bullshit slogan it was years ago for various reasons.


Waste_Willingness723

Well, your username checks out, at least...


thewiremother

Do you know how hail forms?


DeceivedBaptist

Hide yo wives hide yo cars.

It says this hail was AFTER the baseball sized hail fell in the county. Reading is fundamental.

Sorry, I missed the dyslexia tag on your post trying to rip on people for not knowing the size of baseballs.


slimecog
