Baseball sized hail in Coppel headed towards The Colony. Good thing my Firehawk is in the garage, too bad my GF's car is in the parking lot at work.

Hell, I remember being hit with Hurricane Alicia & tornados in the same month in Houston.

I was parked outside, but moved my car when people went to lunch! I don't need $16,000 worth of hail damage . . . AGAIN!

Saw the video of the trailers being thrown around live on TV a couple of hours ago. Pretty scary looking stuff.

http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/bes...ilers-wfaa.cnn

As usual, nothing in Denton. Just some rain and thunder. Sirens were going off for a little bit about an hour ago, or so, but nothing came through.

Hope everybody is safe. Cars and houses can be fixed or replaced.

2012 Jetta just came in from Las Colinas. It has a lot more damage than this but here is an example.


We're good here in Richardson, hope the house is okay in Rowlett, Rockwall is getting it bad right now.


Hope everyone is okay out there, this is bad bad stuff.
