While we were eating it looked like hail was bouncing on the street. People got up to go look out the door.

Tonight the weather man on tv said “it wasn’t hail, it was graupel”. Looked like hail to me. No damage to the car though.

How Stuff Works says “

What’s the difference between hail and graupel?

“Hail consists of hard, solid balls of ice that form in strong thunderstorm updrafts, growing as they ascend and descend repeatedly, collecting layers of ice. Graupel is softer and forms when snowflakes collect and freeze supercooled water droplets, resulting in small, frosty pellets”. How Stuff Works
