Title: The day the hailstones came down
Post by: vec2 on September 02, 2004, 05:26:03 PM
This picture was taken from the balcony in Marsascala, in Malta one February, the heavens opened, and down came the hailstones.First time they had been seen for 35 yrs, and it only lasted a short while and it was gone.

The hail must have been quite small, right?  I have seen that a few times, it piles up and looks like snow.  I'll bet the Maltese were surprised to see it!
