Definite funnel, don't see any evidence of touchdown, but there were homes in the way.

I was about 5 miles SW at the time, light-mod rain, no wall cloud, lightning, no wind, no hail where I was though there was hail further south and west. I think it was maybe localized rotation in the boundary at the front edge of the storm?

I'm a relative newbie to rotating severe weather but this just didn't look like much.

WHAT THE HELL?! That picture is beyond crazy.

It's not as crazy as you think. That hail was deposited there by flooding. It was not a four-foot hail fall on the level.

If hail did fall four feet deep on the level, then why is there a convenient canyon for that man to be standing in? He's clearly standing in a wash, which was earlier flooded and which left that hail deposited.

If that hail fell straight down that deep, then why is it all dirty?

Yet this is being hyped as a four-foot-deep hailstorm. A spectacular storm is never spectacular enough in this culture. Hype and embellishment always attends.

But on the chance that I am wrong, someone, show me an indisputable photo or video of a level four-foot hailstorm -- not four feet in heaps left by flooding. Heck, show me even three feet. I'll wait. It's been hours. Surely there's something out there to show by now.

P.S. Notice in the YouTube of the flash flood everyone is watching: the surrounding landscape is practically BARE -- NOT covered in four feet of hail, for heaven's sake! I swear, people will believe ANYTHING. They so WANT to believe!
