Re: severe weather
Nothing like that but we had a good one last night. Pea to dime size hail. Blowing horizontal with rain up over the curbs. Pretty good sized limb broke off our tree and the edge of it hit Judys car on the front. Just small limbs hit it. Don't think we will have much if any damage. I was parked next to her and it missed me.

Re: severe weather
Wow!
I know the weather service was saying that OK was in the bullseye for bad weather.
I was watching a station out of Tulsa at work till about 6:30. Even then they had a shitpot of funnel clouds and actual tornadoes bouncing round.
Guess I should have kept watching when I got home.
Just glad your safe guys

Re: severe weather
Jd we had 50-60 mph all day here. I bet it was higher than that last night. Your right when the storm chasers stop chasing in your town its time for the storm cellar. I stopped by the marina to check on my boat. It was fine but this new guy said he bet $1000 no one would go out in this. I said hop aboard and lets go. He didn't dang it. I didn't say what I wanted to. Trying to get along ya know. That would have been an easy and fast $1000
