Owner Chuck was quoted as saying:
As I ran downstairs to see what was going on, all 42 of our beautiful skylights (including the one over my desk…) simultaneously disintegrated under the bombardment of those huge hailstones. We had shards of sharp acrylic raining down everywhere in the store, followed by the unbelievable sight of an indoor hailstorm! Everyone had to take cover to keep from getting injured by these huge hunks of ice, as a direct hit could easily have caused broken bones, a concussion, or worse. Through sheer good fortune, no one was injured.
