I don't remember very many Hail Storms in Gunnison. We probably have one every year, however they are usually very minor and don't cause much harm to anything. This years Hail Storm was mighty. Personal losses are in my garden and some of my perennial flowers, my rhubarb plants didn't like it at all it was cruel to them. I had bought 6 cabbage plants and the Hail tore them up and froze them a little. My Sweet Williams and Lilacs seem to have faired better. The lettuce was big enough to sustain some damage, but I would have had to thin it anyway.
