It was hailing in Corona del Mar today when I was on my way to the gym. There was just a small patch of clouds that became dark and then lobbed small hailstones down with fervor. The hail storm only lasted for about 5 minutes but it was quite exciting. The stones were much smaller than the ones pictured to the left. They were only slightly larger than peas. But I could feel them even though I was wearing a hooded sweatshirt. It was fun to be hit by the hail. The sensation was invigorating and exciting. But I was thankful that the hail wasn’t much larger than it was, because if that was the case I would have gone home. The beauty of the small storm was that after its short span, a clear light was visible throughout the town. And the sun shone down golden rays upon the buildings, plants and people.
