2. Hail as large as grapefruit
Wed Mar 11, 2026, 09:36 AM

according to some studies, hail is getting larger and larger due to climate change.

There is a size, grapefruit might just be that size, where areas subject to such hail become too dangerous to live in... our structures are simply not built to survive such hail, the damage to vehicles and animals and to crops and trees is simply too much.

I've seen large hail before in Kansas... but softball or grapefruit???
