    No damage to my car, the trees above must have shielded it from the blows.

    have you seen the pube on the plate in the middle pic dontknow.gif, you sure that’s not frozen aeroplane toliet flush :D

    is that big enough to damage a car in any way? I’ve seen hailstones breaking car windows n stuff before :)

    p.s. I thought you installed an image resizer as this page is mighty wide? :(

    ignore me as the image resizer works now, maybe it has to load them all first or something :)

    Just FYI here but hail doesn’t necessarily mean tornadoes…they are two entirely different events.

    I know I keep saying this but I’ll get around to it. 2GB is a large file(the one I think was the most exciting) and I have no real way of hosting currently. But let me look into and I’ll get back to you.

    Well if you get it under a 100mb I could offer some space on my piece of the net. Have you tried windows movie maker to do wmv??? You can shrink the resolution and get some manageable file sizes. Whats the running time of your favorite clip?

    It’s fine, I’ve got the go ahead to upload the full file to a server for a week so I will do that later today Yoda. It will be up at The Q Lab, Convopit, Bobsnox.com, and here for those interested in watching me chase tornadoes.

    Nothing where I live, and that’s 10 minutes outside of Madison. Heard some places got pretty hammered though! 😯

    That is in fact big enough to damage a car – I’ve heard of some windshields being cracked. Also the largest piece recorded in Madison was 4 inches in diameter! 😯
