| These images were from the 4 May 03 Storm
to hit Bellevue, NE. They were photographed by Paul Demmert of the
Air Force Weather Agency.
Paul wrote: All pictures were taken at approximately 1700 CST. Location was Bellevue, approximately 2 blocks north of the intersection of Hwy 370 and 42nd Street. Note that all of the large (greater than 1.5 inch diameter) hailstones were relatively flat, like a hockey puck. Stones 1 inch and smaller were generally spherical. Also most of the large hailstones I found were single stones, rather than aggregate of many smaller ones. Many of the stones have annular rings showing the growth pattern of the stones. The largest stones I found were in the 2-2.25 inch diameter range. |
