Severe Hailstorms Devastate Texas, Serbia, and Georgia Amidst Climate Change Concerns Devastating hailstorms struck multiple regions across the globe on May 5th and 6th, 2025, causing significant damage and prompting renewed calls for international cooperation on climate change. The storms, captured on video by various citizen reporters, showcased the widespread impact of extreme weather events. In Southeast Texas, USA, large hailstones blanketed streets in Brenham, Pearland, Rosharon, and even south of Houston. "The hail was up to an inch in diameter," reported one resident, "It looked like a winter wonderland, but it was anything but." Meanwhile, in Serbia, prolonged rain and hail storms brought traffic to a standstill in numerous districts. One eyewitness described Valjevo as "literally under water." The damage to property and agricultural crops was substantial. Georgia also experienced heavy rain and hail in Dedoplistskaro. The video's author, linking these events to climate change, urged global action, stating, "To protect ourselves and our planet, we must bring together the brightest scientific minds from around the world!" These events underscore the urgent need for improved disaster preparedness and international collaboration to mitigate the effects of climate change. The widespread nature of the storms serves as a stark reminder of the global threat posed by extreme weather.
