Just a few hours earlier, it was sunny and mild.

And then, just after bedtime, the rattle of frozen ice balls.

The hailstones came in waves, and when they started getting bigger, I got a little nervous.

The storm passed quickly, but with several costly plants in the yard, it was a bit of a restless night. Yo, Spring, hurry up.
