New World Record Hailstone Possible

Share 

Large Hail
Severe storms raked the upper Midwest and High Plains last Friday.  The Storm Prediction Center recorded 19 reports of hail.  One of the hail stones may have set a world record for size and weight. 

The current record-holding hailstone fell from a severe thunderstorm in southeastern Nebraska on June 22, 2003. The stone found near Aurora measured 7 inches in diameter with a circumference of 18.75 inches.
