PHOENIX -- Tuesday’s storm in the valley is going into the record books as producing some of the largest hail ever recorded in the state of Arizona.

According to National Weather Service records, the tennis ball-size hail -- 2.5 inches in diameter -- that fell Tuesday in Scottsdale is tied for the 10th largest hail ever reported in Arizona.

It’s also the second largest hail ever reported in Maricopa County, topped only by a hailstone measuring 2.75 inches in diameter that fell on North Cave Creek in 1990.

This is also only the second time that tennis-ball or larger hail has been reported in Maricopa County.
