As these severe storms moved through the greater St. Louis metro area, very large hail (i.e., roughly tennis ball to baseball-sized hail) for a brief time between 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM CST. Note how during the brief high-resolution satellite loop below you can see the small area of bubbling white clouds quickly blossom just prior to the heaviest rainfall and the largest hail occurring.
