Almost marble sized hail here in Transcona, lasted about 3 minutes, made quite a racket hitting my windows!

Yikes, I see a few small branches down out front. No sirens yet so that crazy lightning never hit anyone! And we're back to sunshine now! Weird frickin' weather........

We saw some crazy rotation at the front of the storm as it approached over E.K. Dime size hail for a few minutes here.

Got soaked waiting for the bus by HSC. Reminded me of those lyrics in "Working at the Car Wash Blues", cause I was "walking home in soggy old shoes." Not much rain when I got home.
That 7:30 outburst got scary for a few minutes. SHouldn't have watched "Day after Tomorrow" on the weekend.

I didn't notice any hail, but at one point the rain was coming down so hard, I couldn't see across the street... and Kilbride ain't very wide!

Front lawn was white with hail (live in the northend) and lots of cleanup on the deck & backyard from branches falling off the partial dead tree in the back yard. I was hoping that the wind would knock it over and save me some money to have it taken out but no such luck, maybe next time. No damage to anything else however, very lucky.

Defnitely "Day after Tomorrow", I'd look foolish in ruby slippers.
