Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin Video

Sorry I was running around like crazy in this vid. I was freaking out....I didn't want my dog to get pummeled in the head with a hail from the window. I didn't expect it at all and it was SO loud. I wish I would of picked up some hail afterwards, but I was too busy assessing all the damage to my house and cars outside. I'll do better next time. :) Videoed in Wisconsin Rapids, WI.
