Where were you four years ago today? Remember the tragedy (to our roofs) on that fateful day? This is a video I shot from my house here in Northfield on August 24th, 2006 during the biggest hailstorm in recent history.
Some notes on the video first:
- It is loud and obnoxious, including the music I added.
- The opening and closing screen shot is of the TV radar showing this hail cell frozen over just Northfield.
- I run through my house looking for the best vantage point. I hope you don't get motion sickness.
- The last half is a time lapse of 30 minutes of hail accumulating.
