Snap. We actually had the same in Edinburgh today
Hail.
What the hail? lol
This also happened in ireland today
When it’s that small it’s actually sleet not hail.
MR WHITE, the purity dropped!
Maybe Japan is one of those countries where there isn’t much Hail? I know my hometown back in my home country was one of those places, I never saw hail until I moved halfway across the world.
Isn’t Spring the most likely season for hail and sleet?
I mean, hail typically occurs when weather is turbulent. Which is what happens in Spring.
It doesn’t happen because it’s particularly cold, like snow. It’s because air layers of different temperatures collide so rain gets sucked back up into the sky where it freezes again.
At least in Europe where I live hail and sleet are typical spring weather, for this reason.
same in London yesterday. today was rather sunny at times
Was there a thunderstorm? That often causes this.
It was hailing on me today in England, and it was warm. I went for a run and was glad the ice just bounced off me because otherwise I would have been soaked.
It snowed here in the PNW USA the night before last (in the mountains).
It hails during summer storms here in the west frequently.
Hailed here too in Denmark
Pretty common tbh
Fill your freezers, summer is coming!
That’s called hail lol
also happened in England yesterday
It hailed in Edinburgh today too!

Its normal
Yes, we had Hail in Germany today. The frozen rain style, just to be clear.
AKA hail
Ice beads!
Hail is frozen ice so you’re technically right
And Wales!
Looks perfect for a soft drink.
First time seeing hail?
And here in North London
hail is frozen rain so op isn’t wrong. y’all are annoying
Same in Paris
Same yesterday in Germany
Happened in the UK as well yesterday
Hail bros
Aww ‘rained ice’.
It hails here quite often but moreso in Summer. Hail doesn’t care what time of year it is.
We actually have an area of the city called “hail alley”. The postal code has a VERY high homeowners insurance rate.
Global warming
