Begins after the first storm had passed through, with water dripping. A peal of thunder announces the arrival of some spotty rain (also a car passes).

Just as the heavy rain begins, a phone rings (annoying, but what can you do.) Two rings before it's picked up. Then rain gets heavier and louder, more thunder and you can start to hear the hail coming down. (Plus LOUD thunder at about 2:10).

Hail and rain both die down briefly, then begin again and build up to high intensity. Cuts up abruptly at about 3:30 (Sorry, my microphones were getting wet!)

Recorded with stereo point mikes plugged directly into the iBook via an iMic.
