In Hampshire County, up to 2 inches of golfball sized hail fell just southwest of Capon Bridge on the west side of Schafenaker Mountain (between Cooper and Bear Garden on Route 50).

In Capon Bridge, quarter sized hail was reported. Heavy rains caused creeks to overflow their banks. A driveway along Route 50 in Capon Bridge was washed away by floodwaters.
