Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for July 29, 2023

Broomie stay out of the big dark clouds. Go through the big white fluffy ones.

You’re not looking very hale

Hail and farewell.

‘Hail fellow, well met?’

Hail, hail, the gang’s all here…..

Curiosity killed the cat and hailed the Broomie…

Also airplanes you can’t see in the fog. And other witches on brooms. And the occasional hot air balloon.

What’s inside a cloud? More cloud!

LOL! We’ve got this now….winds, hail, torrential rains, lightening, rolling thunder! ☹️☹️☹️

For the sake of research, you should try a bunch of other clouds.

oh hail no

I’ve been through clouds in an open cockpit airplane—-they have a definite and singular smell to them

A cloud full of hail would also have some nasty updrafts.

and yet, she didn’t crash down.

As they say in the South, “hail yes!”

We did a Skywarn course and they had a picture of an eight pound piece of hail. Figure the wind required to keep that ice cube aloft

Ouch!

Don’t fly into Cumulus Granite clouds!

That’s a hail of a way to get there.

It’s those silver linings that’ll get you.

Judging by the sound effects, she’s wearing metal clothes again.

Uh oh, better get Maaco!

On the bright side, Broomie emerges from the cloud and hail still flying and in control of her broom. A little hail buffeting has invigorated her (even if she looks rather battered)!
