Hail

A line of severe thunderstorms just passed through here, bringing heavy rain and hail. Looking out the window, I can see holes in the squash leaves. Other plants have probably suffered similar damage, but hopefully nothing too serious. It has been a tough summer for weather so far: first rain, rain, and more rain (and more coming, it seems), now hail. It's probably not good news for local farmers. Local fruit growers suffered hail damage last summer, and probably did again just now.
