What the reports say
Written by National Weather Service staff at the time of the event · public domain
A long lasting severe thunderstorm moved from Polk County into northwest Osceola County and dropped hail between quarter and golf ball size for over 10 minutes. The hail piled up to over a foot deep at the peak of the storm in portions of Poinciana. Some hail damage occurred to the siding of homes, pool screens, recreational vehicles and cars.
Large hail, quarter to half dollar size, fell across portions of St. Cloud as a boundary induced severe thunderstorm moved northward at 10 to 15 mph. The falling hail was video-taped and submitted to an Orlando TV station. The video clearly showed large hail on the ground.
