Tennessee high school graduates were met with torrential rainfall while receiving their diplomas.Though the rain wasn't ideal, "it made for an iconic graduation night," said Victoria Burls, whose daughter was graduating. "Everyone out there were mostly in high spirits and excited because it was still graduation night!"

This was right when the massive thunderstorm began in Davis, California.In seconds it turned into a huge hailstorm, with rain rates briefly exceeding 5 inches an hour. 1.2 inches of rain was recorded just down the street from me in 20 minutes.
