Notes: |
We had arrived home from Great Falls and reached Billings after the storm occurred. We were not here when it happened and so the times of start and ending are what I got from our neighbors. Hail was piled up to a depth of 4 to 6 inches on west facing structures. Most of the hail was about 1/2 inch diameter, but a few were ping pong size. One of our outside garage lights sustained broken glass on the west facing side and a shattered light bulb. A few new dents were seen in our garage door and some dents occurred on the siding to the right of the garage door. Shredded leaves were plastered on the west side of our home, and over the roof, as well as on our driveway and street. |
