We've had very little winter in the Boston-area 2011 through 2012. Temperatures were quite warm with many days reaching into the high 40's thru the low 60's and on special days temperatures reached into the high 70's. Snowfall was only about three inches total and I am stretching it. There was almost no rainfall and we are presently (as is most of the northeast coast) in the midst of a drought. However; this afternoon rain (which was only supposed to be a 40% chance of showers) beat against the windows and became Hail....
I managed to snap a few photos. Hail is rarely seen in Boston. I've had it in Maine; not often, but when it does come it is somewhat frightening, causing me to stand away from the windows and hoping my windows are fine afterwards.
Here are the photos. I published them in Sepia because it gives more contrast and you are able to see the force of rain falling from the sky.
