Sure, whatever. There will be a bit of wind and a dark cloud. Better put my lawn chairs in the garage!

while I would be cool with a new roof/windows, I replaced both my wife's and my car this year. Not especially interested in doing that again this year

Quote HistoryQuoted: The only thing worse than hail is the gypsy roof contractors that flock like locusts to effected areas. I waited around last night for the crew to wrap up so I could lock the gates and go home. I walked up and said "hey, how's it going" and they just looked at me like I was speaking Swahili. Cuanto tiempo mas? Then I get just astonished looks. Manana siete? Then I finally get them to tell me 7. Maybe they are from El Salvador, who the fuck knows what's going on. |

For 12 years I worked in Emergency Management. Of all the hurricanes, tornados, floods, and wildfires I can honestly say tomorrow's event will be another one.

Hail is much more plentiful and leaves a lasting impression That presumes there won't be significant daytime heating west of Ft Worth along the forecasted dryline - but: Should the cap 'break' tomorrow afternoon I'd guess the 'Enhanced' category (30%) will be raised to the 'Moderate' category (45%). If there is significant heating ahead of the dryline it may well 'break the cap' and allow for significant thermal convection which will allow the unbridled formation of supercell thunderstorms due to the denigrated cap allowing strong updrafts and the formation of cyclic hailstones. I'm hearing hail, baseball size or larger depending on what happens with the cap tomorrow evening. The tornado threat is only at 5% currently, but that is subject to change too. 
Stay aware. Baseball sized hail will kill you deader than hell. Stay aware! Stay safe! |

Oh boy!!! We are in the middle of having our roof, outdoor furniture, and a newish garden shed all replaced, and one diesel pickup that remained out in the driveway repaired after that big hail storm whizzed through Oklahoma about three weeks ago. Maybe when I get home the new roof will be finished just in time for THIS storm......

We're in the big middle of the ENH mess. We already had the house hit by a tornado a few (9-10) years ago, so hopefully we are done with that nonsince. We came out of that one just fine. Don't want to do it again.

In the mid 1900's the folks here in Texas would simply call this weather. If you live in north Texas you don't need to invest in a 30 year roof. Chances are sometime over a 5 year span there will be a hailstorm that will require insurance companies to pay for a replacement roof. Often a good hailstorm will also cause drastic price reductions on the price of new vehicles.
Just keep in mind that is all stuff, take care of your family and animals. Our Spring storm season is only beginning. |

I looked at some weather sites but don't see a time when this might hit tomorrow. Noon, afternoon, evening?
Edited: I found it. At this time, it looks like early evening just west of DFW then we are gonna get hammered around 8-9 PM. Kids should be able to get home from school with no problem |

Mostly a wind event up here near KC. Maybe some small hail but lapse rates, STDiv didn't support big stuff. Not enough support for SC development.
