(AccuWeather) Hailstone larger than a softball measured in Mississippi
Dangerously large hail has been pelting parts of Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi as severe thunderstorms rumble over the states, in addition to strong wind gusts and isolated tornadoes. A hailstone 5 inches across was measured in Brooksville, Mississippi, located about 110 miles northeast of Jackson, Mississippi. Photos on social media also showed that the chunk of ice measured 9 inches in circumference. A hailstone this large can easily cause property damage or severe injury. Hail larger than baseballs was also measured across southern Georgia.
