Overview

In the early afternoon of June 25, 2020, a severe thunderstorm developed over Custer. Hail reports ranged in size from peas to golf balls, and the massive amounts of hail that accumulated forced plows to clear roads. In addition, the combination of heavy rain and accumulating hail caused some flooding around Custer.
