The Great Avilés Hail Storm

We had a little hail when we were at the Vodafone store (which took 45 minutes) We start going out an hour later, at 7:30 pm and it is pounding down hail, small stones but heavy hail. We wait about ten minutes and decide to go for it. Wynette is in her socks and sandals. There is half an inch of hailstones built up on the streets. This kind of weather must not happen much here because lots of shop people were looking out their doors and looked amazed.

It was slippery and wet. Not good walking conditions. But we did our errand and made it back to the hotel safely. Wynette’s socks were freezing and wet but the radiators were on and they dried quickly.
