I just saw a segment on WTNH TV in New Haven, CT which showed a basketball 
sized chunk of ice that hit and dented a roof in Preston, CT.  The piece of 
ice was predominantly whitish with varying sizes of dirt and gravel 
embedded.  The owner, wisely is preserving the specimen in his freezer.  The 
FAA said that no planes were over Preston at the time, but Preston is under 
the flight path of many international flights leaving from the New York 
airports.  The skies at the time were variably cloudy and the temp was in 
the upper 30's.
