Pretty fricking amazing
A hailstorm of mammoth proportions hammered sections of Mexico City Sunday. Several feet of hail piled up, making some city roads impassable.
“Roads such as the North Loop [el Periférico Norte] were flooded by hail and flooding, so municipal and Federal District workers labored for hours to clear them, Notimex reported,” wrote CNN Mexico.
Mexico news organization Azteca Noticias called it a “historical hailstorm”.
Pictures from Twitter are remarkable; parts of the low latitude city appear transformed into a winter wonderland in the dog days of August:

Wow! I am glad I missed that. At least, as a driving experience.
I've heard of a few inches of hail in the winter at higher altitudes ..... but August ??
