Wintry Precipitation in May?

Yesterday, May 8th, there was a lot of reports of hail and graupel throughout the region. I saw a mix of less than pea sized hail and graupel. Graupel is wintry precipitation. Meaning that we saw some sort of wintry precipitation in early May, which is rare for our region. Pretty crazy isn't it? This is not common for our region. The cold pattern is really doing wonders here. It will also make the ground cooler and delay the boom of cicadas.

Here's a video of the hail/graupel mix that moved through the region.
