Hailstones are big in Texas

 

A really, really, really big hailstone fell out of a thunderstorm in Texas a couple of weeks ago.

This Daily Mail article calls it a record-breaker, and it turns out it was, for North Texas, so it was a regional record-breaker.  I'm not sure what the regional boundaries are.

In any case, it was a big chunk of ice. 

Record-breaking 13-ounce hailstone that's almost SIX INCHES long is discovered in Texas after huge storm

Here's the National Weather Service description of the big one.
