Hail in central Tx

[Spacemom]

This is a once every 2 or 3 years occurrence around here. So of course the boys and I had to run around outside getting pelted by it. :P

4. You know it, hon.

I am so pissed that the man has the camera. It's been snowing for 45 mins. Only sticking on cars, but still. How's WA?

Actually, it's all good. I do like it here.

5. Gad, I remember the hail storm I got caught in in Arlington back in

1975. I was living in Ft. Worth, and the company I worked for bought tickets for everyone to go the a Ranger's game. It was early spring, so the weather was still really mixed.

Halfway through the game, it started hailing like crazy; the hail stones were at least the size of golf balls. People were running for cover; some people got hurt by the hailstones.

When we finally got to the car, it looked as if someone had taken a ballpeen hammer to it.

I never want to get caught in something like that again.

8. Heck, that's nothin'.

We had our Christmas tornado in Denison Monday night.

9. Once every 2 or 3 years?

That's not fair... we get it up here at least twice a year.

And we didn't get any snow. Boo.

10. Yep, very rare around here

My 8 year old was little freaked out because he's never seen hail before that he remembers. Once he realized the sky wasn't falling, he thought it was really cool. :rofl:
