Hail Cannon

After my experience with hail on our Cosmo, I ran across this:

Hail Cannon Manufacturer - Eggers Anti Hail Device

Cannons both hailed and blasted : Local News : The Rocky Mountain News


The Science behind it has not been proven or disproven, but it does make for interesting reading...

Can you imagine having this in the back of the Tow Vehicle and firing it up at the first sign of possible hail?

Kinda makes that neighbor with the loud construction non-inverter generator seem like a quiet librarian after firing one of these bad boys!!

Kev,

I think a kid in my 8th grade biology class that sat right behind me had one of these things!

My in-laws just lost all of their wheat and probably corn crop to hail. I'm not sure they are in a place where I can send this to them but maybe in a couple weeks they will think its funny.
