Forecasters warned of “DVD-size hail” as stones larger than grapefruits bombarded an area near Lubbock.
Americans will measure with anything other than metric.
16And the title is hilarious. What should we call balls this size?? We don't have a name for it! We need a new name for it!!
Imagine if hurricanes had different names for different speeds instead of Cat N. This is a horse speed hurricane. This is a cheetah speed hurricane. This one is 2.5 bullet train hurricane.
4Fine the size a DvedD.

“DVD-sized” for fucks sake is this serious?
And then they say “larger than grapefruit”. Ok so it’s “large grapefruit” sized? Which is about the size of a DVD? Jesus fuck.
Why is everyone dumb :(
6DVDs just aren't bigger than grapefruits.
2Especially in Texas, grapefruit is the largest citrus crop in the state and so very large grapefruit are regularly available. Also DVD are very thin and light which makes my immediate reaction that these are less dangerous hail somehow.
