A thunderstorm produced nickel size hail northwest of Stockdale.

Wider weather episode

A cold front moved into a warm, moist airmass and generated thunderstorms. The warm sector airmass had CAPE values of 2000-3000 j/kg and deep layer wind shear around 40 kts with steep mid-level lapse rates all of which was conducive to large hail growth. Storms mostly produced large hail and then also some damaging wind gusts.
