a Foot of Hail Swamps New Mexico Town
4
July, 2013
A
lone thunderstorm dumped over a foot of hail in the town of Santa
Rosa, N.M. Wednesday evening, leaving a surreal sight the day before
the Fourth of July.
Photos
from the Santa Rosa Fire Department showed snow plows clearing city
streets clogged with accumulated hail drifts.
According
to the National Weather Service in Albuquerque, hail up to golfball
size pelted the city around 6:00 p.m. MDT.
Skylights
were damaged and a roof was partially collapsed in the city of
approximately 2,800 residents, about 105 miles east of Albuquerque,
according to a report from the Albuquerque Journal.
