Give it an hour or two they are creeping towards us slow as molasses.

OK, I just ran outside and got three trucks, two jeeps, two tractors and one golf cart undercover. The back half is my truck is still out but it is the only one with full coverage insurance.

Since I put everything undercover, in the dark, in my pj's, it probably won't even rain at my house now

Thanks for the heads up Anthony

Did you mean tomatoes? I looked at my garden and said a prayer I hope my wittle plants are still standing tomorrow

LOL!!! I hear ya!!! We went to a lot of trouble this morning to put up a temporary "shelter" for our vehicles that can't go in the garage (even tho they're full coverage - I just DON'T want to file any claims!!). I've been figuring all day that it's OUR fault that we didn't see any of the wet stuff!!

I know what you mean about filing a claim, UGH!!

It is getting closer. Here is the radar from mysa:

Dang! That's lookin' exciting!!

Was just on the phone with my daughter. We got her a nice hotel downtown tonight so that she could have fun a NIOSA and such without the worry of driving all the way to the Far West side of town with the drunks to come home. Now I think her biggest fear will be dodging hail on her way back to the hotel!!!

The good news is that the storms show signs of weakening. The hail readings are looking lower with each passing scan, but it the threat still remains.

I think it's mainly a factor of how slow moving these storms are and the fact that they are "raining" themselves out by sitting over the same areas. One thing to watch for is what the storms will do as they head south in the more unstable air here.

The heavy rain threat remains very high.. that hasn't dissipated at all and storms are popping up all over the place. I'm confident we'll see storms here in town... the main question is will we see hail?

I'm rooting for the soaker tonight... we don't need damage especially if we have round 2 coming this weekend.
