Monstrous hail fell on the Front Range of Colorado, littering the streets with hail that looked like a winter blizzard. Hail the size of golf balls shattered windows, damaged cars, and put holes in many homes. The violent storm hit early in rush hour, damaging many vehicles on roads in the area “Colorado’s most destructive hailstorm demonstrates the magnitude of damage that a single hurricane can do,“ said Carol Walker, executive director of the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association. The hailstones, some the size of baseballs, rained down relentlessly, catching residents off-guard. Reports of injuries have begun to surface as unfortunate individuals were struck by the hailstones. Emergency services are working tirelessly to provide medical assistance to those affected. The storm swept across several cities, including Denver, Colorado Springs, and Boulder, leaving behind a scene of utter chaos.
