A drive amidst hailstorm

It was a great drive upto Haldwani and beyond - upto Dhari, enroute to Pahaadpani on the 13th June 2009 - nothing eventful.
Then SUDDENLY, the weather changed.
From 34 deg.C, in a matter of 15 minutes, the sky exploded, sending down marble-sized hailstones at such a frantic pace, hitting the surfaces with such power, that I feared it may just damage my car windshield. The temperature steadily dropped down to 9 deg.C (I couldn't believe this.....) and the road was covered with hailstones - what a beautiful sight.
These are the small wonders of nature, that stay in your mind forever.
Share with me, the beautiful moments - see and hear it.....
The temperature - 9 deg. C - WOW!!!!
