We had a super big storm that hit Mesa. I was visiting my mom and then headed over to Lisa's house to watch a episode of Smallville that I missed. We heard the rain increase and when outside to take a look. The rain turned into hail and a lot of it fell from the sky. I've never seen that much hail fall at one time. There was so much wind and hail that it was hard to see across the street. About 15 minutes later, the storm calmed down and Lisa and I went to survey the damage. Her basketball stand fell on my truck and scratched it up a bit. Little did we realize the damage that was done around the neighborhood. As I went home, I saw a lot of damage at Reed Park. There were a lot of trees down and a power line that fell on the roof of an apartment complex. The streets were littered with debris, sheds demolished, fences down, and the canopy at Porter was ripped to shreds. As I looked at my truck, I realized how lucky I was that there was only a scratch. It was a bad storm and people will remember this storm for awhile.
