How much did the biggest hail stone weigh?

Answer 1

On the onw website I fond and after a little research I have found that the worlds largest hailstone was found in Aurora, Nebraska and it measured over 10 inches in width but that was only about half of it because some of it broke off when it hit the ground and some melted before it could be measured. It's circumference was over 18 inches and its weight was roughly about 5 pounds.
