Neat report. I believe there are a few of those here in the Rockford area as well.

I recall it hailing really hard one day in '86,when I was @ the Lustron home that my friend owned here.It was coming down & sideways,and boy was it loud..He just smiled and said,relax.

There were (perhaps still are) a handful of them in Aurora, IL also.

[Mr. Chevy]

There is one of those homes across the street from my Father's home... It is in poor condition..
