It was trying to close off fully and then it flattened/lined out a bit.

Hope you stay safe and it starts to weaken.


You too. Got a little hail but the worst of it stayed about 5 miles south of us.

ETA: as soon as I say that some bigger hail starts falling...

Good to hear.

I’m back in frisco now. Was going to leave the lake tonight but my husband wanted me home before this weather hit. Neighbors will keep me posted on our property there.

They are almost always for tornados. They are used occasionally for straight line winds and heavy/large hail but not for just any severe storm.

You can't really say that since the last two events saw sirens sounded for hail and wind. I don't like the trend of sounding sirens for anything other than a tornado warning.

Looking like ping-pong size hail will be moving into our area very soon.

Just going off my experience. I was the one in the last thread explaining that they do this and why it they started. It’s really not just for any severe storm. Large hail and straight line winds are most common reasons they are activated outside of tornados.

I’m really not going to get a drop of rain in Dallas

I’m so sick of these weather people.

Not a drop. I’ve seen a good bit of lightning but that’s it.

Probably the 7th time I’ve cancelled work projects and nothings came. I should be able to sue these retards for loss income.

Had to deal with it to see what was happening.



Sadly it is storming on the scene right now while they are trying to get the semi drivers freed.

Nobody gives a frick that you haven’t gotten any rain, man.

Are you complaining because you’re not getting tornadoes like other parts of Dallas?

fricking leave the thread if you don’t have anything else to add.
