Check you sewer hose for hail damage before you dump. About 50 percent of the hoses in our park were damaged from the hail Sunday. Chris

East Valley refers to the East Valley of Phoenix. We are in Gold Canyon East of Apache Junction. Hail was around mothball size. Chris

I was driving east towards Canyon Vistas while the hail storm was doing its damage. Lots of cars stopped and parked along the freeway #60 and I was wondering why, since I was experiencing large snow flakes only. Now I know why they stopped driving. That happened about 3 miles from the park.

In the meantime, in the park, one of our sewer hoses was really wrecked by the hail, while the other one survived the ordeal. I suppose that the older one was weakened by Arizona sun and therefore was damaged by hail. In any case, thanks Chris for letting us know.

We're in Mesa, no such problems here. The weather was really hit and miss with that storm - drive 5 minutes and it was completely different.
