I took the pictures from the same
gas station I sought refuge at during the hail storm. It looked as if
the wall cloud was only 1,000 feet or so away. This was downtown
Hastings, that is only 1 mile square, and has 1 four-way stoplight. I
believe the time was around 5:10 PM Sunday evening. The storm grew
very quickly, I would say in about 25 minutes before the rain began to
fall. The temperature was around 91 or so, and very muggy. It looked

About 20 miles from St.. Augustine, and about 6 miles from my house.
This area is turning out to be my favorite place to stalk storms,
especially between the farmers fields where I can escape, if
necessary. I believe the time was around 5:10 PM Sunday evening. The
