Default [WR] Romsey - 10mm diameter hailstones

A developing Cb to the south has just unleashed a barrage
of large white hail, making a right din on hard surfaces. The
shower commenced at 1615Z with small floating pellets of
snow which suddenly turned into hard hitting hail of 7-10cm
(measured with ruler) from 1620-1623Z. Now (1630Z)
it's back to snow pellets. No rain or snowflakes observed
in this shower.

Sorry to scare you all... I meant millimeters!!
