Hail in Los Angles is highly unusual. Hail that lasts longer than a minute or two basically never happens.
But that’s what we got on the first day of Spring, a.k.a. Persian New Year! A hailstorm that lasted twenty minutes and was followed with brilliant sunshine!
Surely this means we’re off to an interesting season — or year — ahead! As you’ll hear my husband talking on the video, even our doggie shivered with anticipation…
How often does it hail where you live?

We have hail way too often for my taste, here in my area of Texas…probably about 4-6 times a year. Crazy, wacky weather.

We might have hail 2-3 times in ayear. As it happens, we got the hail, the day after you did.

Yikes! I don’t think we got hail that day but certainly have in the past. Must take cover when it happens.

Wow, that was bad! Hail like that is fortunately very rare here too. Usually the hail showers are shorter and the single hail corns smaller. It happens usually in April … 2-3 times maybe.
One year friends of ours in the north of Germany had hail so big that it dented the cars, and they rushed out to drive them into the carport. And it was local, more or less only in their town, which is even weirder.

yes – we’re fortunate to never get the huge ones – once in Spain I was caught in a hailstorm that was quite painful!
