What part of "seek shelter" does this person not understand? If sharp icy golfballs are flying from the sky at a 45degree angle, you hide. (Though it makes for a nice video)
I've been through an earthquake and a hailstorm. At least you can forecast and predict a hailstorm and most of the damage is to your roof or car anyway.
Maybe because I've been through hailstorms and snowstorms and severe weather and hurricanes and everything else the weather can throw at me that I'd prefer something that's at least predictable. Plus, with earthquakes, it's very difficult to tell what damage there is to your house when it's over.
I'm a weather bouncer and I have fucking stopped hurricanes with my face and fucked hailstorms like this in the ass after my morning grapenuts so fuck all of you.
I like baleen's comment. But earthquakes are terrifying. You can't predict them, and I live on the 3rd floor of a 50 year old apartment complex. There's nowhere to run or hide. When "the big one" hits, at least I'm on top of the other 2 stories. But still, ice the size of golfballs falling out of nowhere is pretty bad too.
i live outside philadelphia and i got caught outside in a freak hailstorm like this once, the hail wasn't this big thankfully. sucked ass though, its like nature's artillery strike.
Been through a couple of those. But while that's certainly a severe hail storm, most of that was no more than golf ball sized. I saw one or two stones that might have qualified for tennis ball sized. That's bad, but...
I'll hear forecasts and warnings for softball sized a couple of time a year. Only been in the middle of one of those actually manifesting a few times, though. That's some scary shit, no matter what kind of structure you're in.
Stars will multiply the first time I actually hear Laura Lorson say "DVD sized hail".
