Half the sky had dark clouds, we watched it and listened for thunder and looked for lightning. The window for Grand was 1215-1615. As clouds came in from behind us, we managed one more Turban and Grand started at 1541. The three bursts were a surprise and of course Grand blew toward the historic bench and that end of the seats. The high third burst drenched that area. Uncertain was splashing heavily when we walked by and we heard it called as we got to Castle. We just made it back to the Lower Store before the rain at 1610 and several minutes of hail. As I drove past the hills just before Midway Geyser Basin, I noticed they were white with the hail.
