Residents were caught off guard Tuesday evening when a sudden hailstorm struck the town, turning a calm night into chaos. Strong winds, thunder, and massive hailstones — some as large as golf balls, even baseballs — pelted homes and cars. The noise was deafening. “It sounded like rocks hitting the house,” one resident said, shaken by the storm’s force.
Within minutes, streets were covered in ice and debris. Dozens of vehicles were dented or had shattered windshields, and several homes suffered roof damage. Local authorities quickly issued warnings urging everyone to stay indoors until conditions improved.
By the time the skies cleared, the community was left assessing damage from what many called the fiercest hailstorm in recent memory.
