Hailstorm in Philippines

Hailstorm in Saudi Arabia

 Yes, a hailstorm in Marikina, Philippines. This is the first time I've seen small ice particles fall from the sky here. I happened to see such hailstorms, well I know it's quite peculiar, in Saudi Arabia, a country that mostly comprises deserts. That was twice on a consecutive year in the month of May.

It was 11:30am when it started raining hard. I actually even looked outside because the rainfall is much heavier than the usual. And I saw mothball like particles on the street. Sadly, I didn't have the chance to take some photos. I was stunned from what I see that instance.

A shelf cloud forms following a torrential rain and hail storm west of Budapest, Hungary, yesterday (European PA).

I couldn't believe that hailstorm will also happen here in the Philippines. Well I hope the next thing that will fall from the sky are snows. I really wanted to experience snowing.
