<h3>Thunderstorm over Mt Elden</h3>

18 Aug 2014 northeast of Flagstaff Arizona.

I was on the east side of the ridge, so didn't get much warning about this thunderstorm coming from the west.  A few minutes later, I got caught in quite a thunderstorm with hail.  The hail was big enough to sting a bit when it hit me, even thru a shirt.  Getting under a tree didn't help much, and the real problem was trying not to be a lightning target.
