Hail Hail! Big hailstones on our catamaran in the Mediterranean.

The weather is beautiful in the Med. And sometimes the Tramontana wind makes itself heard and the wind picks up from the Northwest . At one moment, we saw it brought dark clouds over the eastern Pyrenean mountain range towards the sea and over the harbor. We had the boat open, so quickly closed the hatchers, but had no time to install the canvas to protect the rear deck from the rain. So in this movie you see this fierce hailstorm came over us in the harbor, leaving big hailstones on the deck. That was a first for us! The sound was so loud. And just as quickly as it came, in 1 hour the air cleared and the sun reappeared. It’s a well known phenomena in this part of Mediterranean, called the Golfe du Lion.
