110 Residents Injured Near Milan As Tennis Ball-Sized Hail, Tornado Follow Dangerous Heatwave

A punishing hail storm injured 110 people in Seregno just outside Milan, Italy, after stones the size of tennis balls fell after searing heat plagued the southern Europe region.

The storm was ushered in with wind speeds up to 87 miles per hour which snapped trees and tore roofs off buildings. The same supercell formed a tornado that struck the City of Milan.

The temperature reported on social media videos reported 83 F, a welcome but temporary cool down from brutal heat temperatures before the storm's arrival.
