[Axel] Here too... +10 dergees Celcius.... Halfway T-shirt weather ;---)))
In the East of Belgium there's still 10 inches of snow!
In 'the East' may sound impressive but Belgium is just 300 Km long.

Your ice crystals were great, sorry to hear they were stolen ;-)))
I know a guy who collected the mineral ice from the great quarry in the
sky... He found it in his garden after a hailstorm in 1994 that injured
people, wrecked cars and damaged roofs. As far as I know, he still has those
hailstones in his deepfreeze.
Here's a photo
