But alerts quickly began hitting phones across the Texas Hill Country at around 9 p.m. Thursday as a hail storm swept east across the rolling hills of Texas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;All my vehicles look like a damn golf ball now,&#8221; Steve Hoyland Jr. said, sharing his experience in Camp Wood alongside a photo of a massive piece of hail in his yard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Images and videos are swirling online of the impact this hail storm had on communities from Del Rio and miles east into the Hill Country. And these storms didn&#8217;t seem to be 30-second quick hit either.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Hoyland also<a data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share\/v\/1CxCQ9SYJr\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:shared a video;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link\"> shared a video<\/a> showing increasingly large hail hurling down from the clouds for at least 4 minutes.

More clouds are set to loom over the state this weekend, threatening excessive rain and life-threatening floods. For Hoyland, this was the worst hail he&#8217;d seen in 52 years, but others say it&#8217;s just typical of Texas Hill Country living.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;It happens quite a bit in the Hill Country. If ya know, ya know,&#8221; Larry Skains replied.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In reality, this hail storm was record-breaking. The National Weather Service said a storm chaser tracking this hail event measured a block of ice that was 7.1 inches across.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;A new Texas hailstone record has been verified,&#8221; the NWS office reports. &#8220;The official measurement of the hailstone is 7.1&#8243; which beats out the previous Texas hailstone record of 6.46&#8243; from 2021.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This article originally published at <b><a data-yga=\"{\" ylinkelement=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mysanantonio.com\/news\/weather\/article\/hail-texas-22235126.php?utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=yahoo_syndication\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:'Baseball-size hail' recorded in record-breaking Texas hail event;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link\">&#8216;Baseball-size hail&#8217; recorded in record-breaking Texas hail event<\/a><\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/articles\/baseball-size-hail-recorded-record-233200130.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Severe weather season is in full swing across Texas, and the Texas Hill Country saw some of the worst of it Thursday night, April 29.
