Toronto hit by rogue hail storm Wednesday evening (PHOTOS)
Mother Nature was all over the map on Wednesday.
What started as a gloomy day turned into a sunny afternoon that was perfect for patio hanging… before a random hail storm broke out.
Just before 7 pm, a torrential downpour turned into an intense hail storm in downtown Toronto and parts of the GTA.

During the storm, heavy chunks of hail fell from the sky, causing dangerous driving conditions but also, some pretty great photo and video ops, too.
If you avoided the storm, Torontonians were quick to capture the wild weather and were kind enough to share their footage on social media.
Thats some big hail.
