A deluge of hail engulfed the outskirts of Guadalajara on Sunday, half-burying vehicles in ice and damaging nearly 200 homes.
The freak hail storm in one of Mexico's largest cities came as summer temperatures hovered around 31 degrees Centigrade (88 Fahrenheit) in recent days.
"I've never seen such scenes in Guadalajara," said the governor of Jalisco state, Enrique Alfaro.
"Then we asked ourselves if climate change is real. These are never-before-seen natural phenomena. It's incredible, " he said.
At least six neighborhoods were covered in ice up to 2 meters (2 yards) deep.
