    However, Nancy Knight of the National Center of Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., said the two largest she found in Aurora weighed less than the Coffeyville stone.

    Weight, she said, is the most important measurement.

    Knight visited Aurora earlier this month and collected 20 hailstones that fell during the June storm.

    Knight said she still plans to dissect the stones, slicing them down the center where they're longest, to verify their dimensions.However, she was confident her findings would stand even after she forwards them to the National Climatic Data Center in Ashville, N.C.
