An outbreak of severe weather erupted across western Kansas late Sunday afternoon with storms exploding and dropping very large hail across the state. Some of the largest hail reported came down in Minneola where baseball sized hail was measured on the east side of town. Motorists along US-54 were forced to pull over and wait for the hail to cease as the onslaught of large hail hammered the highway.
