That phenomenon is luck. We’ve been EXTREMELY lucky all 3 events. Tonight was the only time we saw more than just moderate rainfall.

Probably melted a decent bit. Got the wife settled and calmed down, then went check out the damage. A lot of hail in the yard. It wasn’t hard to find. I’d guess maybe quarter/half dollar sized hail when it came through. I was about 15/20 after it dropped before I went check it out. Some crazy Facebook photos of folks north of me only a few miles. I’ll wait to validate before I post some bunk stuff.

Definitely woken up to hail. It didn’t look super huge looking out my widow. Seems to have settled down some now in Denham. Maybe trying to pick back up a little?

Well I’m wiped out and I’ve heard from everyone I needed to after their respective bouts. Glad everyone is safe and if you’re still in the path, take care of yourself.

I think it’s probably past you. It blew thru here quickly. Once it was over, it was over.

My dog called this shite. She’s a well trained lab, super disciplined. Fireworks, thunder, other dogs barking...she’s calm. About 5 minutes before I checked the internet and went wake up the family, she came to me at the computer and came sit in between my legs with her head pressed up against me. I was like, what’s up with you?? Shiiit, when I grabbed the baby and handed her off to the wife in this rickety arse trailer tub, the dog was the next one in and curled up. If I snap my fingers and call her name, she comes. shite son, I called her name and she curled up. I was gonna be stuck clinging to the toilet lol

It mostly appears to be on radar. Just maybe some more moderate rain. Hopefully the hail wasn’t big enough to do to much damage. It didn’t appear to be big enough to mess up my truck which is parked outside

Where are you Deacon?


Behind Minnow’s gas station off 415 and 190. I sleep at work a couple nights a week. No major damage here. Have a tree blocking our side entrance and looks like it knocked over our keypad for the gate. Half our place has power but the part I’m in is out. Go figure. Good luck baws, looks like we dodged a bullet in WBR.

Deacon, I think we’ve got another round pushing thru now. Doesn’t appear to be as intense on radar tho. Maybe you can get a nap. Stay safe.

Not a single noise from any of the weather woke me up, but the second the power went off I’m up in a flash. Go figure.

Hope everyone stays safe.

It’s been quite the strange phenomenon as of late. The storms seem to stay just above us for some reason.


I’m in LC. This entire spring, all these storms that have been forecasted have gone up and over us (to the north of us). It’s the oddest thing the way these storms have been tracking out of the gulf. Maybe one of these seasoned weather guys in these threads has an explanation for that.

With that said, about 1215 last night, we had one hellacious storm come through. One of the worst ones in a good while. I bet it rained 2” in a span of about 30 min. Wind blowing 50 and lightning popping everywhere. So much water. Took about half an hour for it to go through and just stop like someone turned off the switch.

Just woke up to check what we are going to be hit with here in Auburn. Looks like the bad stuff is South of us. Is that cell spinning around mobile the same one that spun up in Texas and tore though Louisiana last night?
