What Was The Biggest Hailstone In The World? Other stones have frequently been reported to be the size of a baseball or even a small grapefruit. How would you like to be hit by one of these? The largest hailstone reported in the United States fell in a storm in Potter, Nebraska, in 1928. It was round and hard and weighed a pound and a half with a circumference of seventeen inches, just about the size of a softball. However, the largest hailstone in the world that has ever been found was in India after a hailstorm on March 17, 1939. This stone weighed seven and one-half pounds. Scientists wonder if perhaps this stone was not really several stones that had joined to make one.
