Norfolk and Hail

At 5:00 Indian Summer was at the fuel dock. As they tied up, there was a strong thunderstorm looming. They had to delay fueling until the storm passed. During the storm, they were boarded by some large hail that they later scooped out of the cockpit with a dust pan. They plan to head out to sea shortly. I have a planned radio contact with the crew at 6:00 PM, just a few minutes from now. This is really just a test, as their cell phones will still work until they are 10-15 miles out to sea.
