A small line of thunderstorms dropped penny sized hail in Plymouth before weakening, then another thunderstorm on Cape Cod became severe and dropped penny sized hail in Mashpee.Another round of severe thunderstorms moved across Massachusetts during the evening ahead of a cold front. There were many reports of large hail, especially in the Connecticut Valley, where hailstones as large as golf balls were observed in Greenfield. Penny to quarter sized hail fell in parts of central and eastern Massachusetts, from Gardner to Clinton and Foxborough. No damage was reported as a result of the large hail.Lightning from thunderstorms caused significant damage in parts of central and eastern Massachusetts.
