Unfortunately for Texas, 

one household didn’t quite get the memo. After a gargantuan

hailstone dropped during an unprecedented storm in Hondo, Texas, on April 28, the finders
merely uploaded photos to social media before quickly getting to work making cocktails
with it. Meteorologists on Twitter then used impressive technology to analyze its size from
just a few images and a quarter for reference that was laid nearby. They discovered it was
the largest to have ever fallen in Texas at around 16 centimeters (6.27–6.57 inches). But
before it could be verified by the National Weather Service, they were informed the lump of
ice was already consumed by margarita-lovers, and the hailstone will never claim its
deserved title.
