But since you went there... SOFTBALL!

On Sept. 3, 1970, the largest hailstorm to fall in the United States at the time hit Coffeyville, Kan. The stone, weighing 1.67 pounds, was 5.7 inches in diameter—making it roughly the size of a softball.

Interesting article! I've been in a few hail storms, but I think marble-sized was the largest, and it only lasted for a couple of minutes.
