Hail in Texas

[Genessee]

Look at the rings created with each cycle through the cloud.

That reminds me of a jaw breaker

We had a bit of snow. NFLD had 2 cm of it.

actually reminds me of my friend whom thought it would be funny to go outside during baseball size hail storm with a bat..... needless to say he struck out I would have stopped him but I really needed the laugh.....

Amarillo. Where we don't want any trees or hills to spoil our view.

the view is nice up there is you're taking storm pics and want a flat range! My dad grew up in Plainview so I have spent my share of days in the Panhandle but not in the past few years.

The hailstorm we had in Daytona last week caused 4500 in damage to my truck...its going to be in the shop for 2 weeks.

Just watched the news and there was some damage in parts of the city. The hail broke some car windows, house skylights and I am sure that there are some dented up cars out there too. Maybe tomorrow I will go look for some dimpled autos. I think that Tradewind (KTDW) was in the path of the worst part of the storm. Hopefully they got all the airplanes inside the hangers in time.

Everything really is bigger in Texas.

i wanna see the dimples in the cars at the dealerships!

Wow, wierd weather all over the place. We had 80 degree weather the other day, and for weeks straight rained for the first time in a month here today

We had a hail storm come through this evening that made some cool hailstones. They were about golfball size in Amarillo and some baseball and tennis ball size farther east. Nothing unusual about the size of the hail in these parts but when they broke you could really see how hailstones are formed.

These look just like the weather text book drawings I used to see in ATC weather class.


Golfball size hailstone in my hand.


The aftermath. No damage except for some leaves on the ground.
