DENVER — It looked like a winter storm barreled through neighborhoods out by Denver International Airport, but what residents woke up to Friday was a swath of accumulating hail left behind from Thursday evening and overnight severe storms.

For many blocks, a sea of hail covered the roadways and buildings along Pena Blvd as Denver residents reported shattered car windows and damage to houses and businesses after severe storms dropped large hail.A look at large, accumulating hail that battered the Denver metro overnight Jeff Anastasio 6:46 AM, May 31, 2024 Dozens of Denver7 viewers shared photos of golf ball-sized hail and damage to car windshields.
