Hail accompanies Wednesday evening's violent Indiana thunderstorms
Valaparaiso was among the northern Indiana communities swept by Wednesday evening's powerful thunderstorms. These photos, submitted to us by Gerry Jasinski, show quarter-size hailstones covering the ground at his home. Hailstones in other sections of northern Indiana reached diameters as large as 2.5"—large enough to be termed "tennis-ball size".
