RachelnLa Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Storm just moved thru. It was very rough. Trampolines flying, fences down, branches down. It was. WHITE when I looked out the door or windows. You couldn't see an inch out there. Three rounds of hail. I cannot go out to check on Rainette. Hope she is okay. Hope all my TX friends faired well!! Stay safe. Edited May 10, 2013 by RachelnLa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adair Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Oh no Rachel!!! I'm glad you are ok. I hope Rainette is too. Please let us know when you can get outside. Oh, and your garden too!!! I love spring storms, but only if they don't cause damage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnOhio Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Hope your car is ok. That would stink if you had to go through the whole ordering and waiting process all over again. I just got to work (early as usual,) and parked inside a parking garage instead of the surface lot I normally do. They are calling for strong storms with high winds and hail here today. My baby will be well protected at least until I leave. Hope I don't drive into anything until I get her home and into the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RachelnLa Posted May 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 I think a twister came thru. It was pretty bad. Thank goodness Rainette is perfect save for Tons of leaves stuck to her. My friend Wasn't so lucky. Lots of hail dents. One neighbor had three squirrels die in all the fallen limbs. One was still clinging to the branch :(. Cable just came back and the utility company was out setting new poles. Many snapped. Glad it's over. Hubby just checked my car again and said its fine. Cassidy. That looks like a whole lotta mess. I hope you never go thru that again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jus-A-CMax Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Glad you're OK rachelinla & rainette too :rockon: Wow, that was sudden too. No tornado warning like they have in OK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RachelnLa Posted May 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Adair. I am gonna snap some pics and put them on fb! Jus, hubby warned me it was going to be bad. I have a weather radio and it alerts me to bad weather but we didn't know it was gonna be THAT bad. I think we had 60mph winds. Tornadoes aren't common but a small twister or squall is possible.

roninsd Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Glad you, hubby and the car are all ok, Rachel. (Jus would have gone out in the storm to find a good tail wind to up his mpg!) Adair and Jus-A-CMax 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
