since a couple weeks ago with the "tornado" with huge hail slipped by, I'm wary. We (Denton County/Frisco) are under a tornado watch

We just bought a house in Collin County. Would be just my luck to have to get a new roof after living in it for 2 months. Truck is going in the garage after work

Sustained winds of 30+ here in Midland with gusts over 50. No moisture, but a lot of times high winds out here coincide with big storms in the metroplex.

We just bought a house in Collin County. Would be just my luck to have to get a new roof after living in it for 2 months. Truck is going in the garage after work You could go thru probably 5 to 10 bad hail storms before you really need to replace the roof, this could be over a series of many many years. Of course if you get a roofer on your roof and he sees some damage he gonna be yelling call your insurance, in reality your roof is good for another decade. I have watched newbies in my area get a roof one year and get a new roof the next year, while his next door neighbor will wait decades.

Weather Forecast is changing by the minute, It was 97% chance of T Storms at 7pm, now they scaled it down to 57%.
I am good with rain, Don't want no hail.

We had a bunch of big marble to nearly golf ball sized hail in Fredericksburg. Thankfully all intact but will need to check roof tomorrow. Tow vehicle may have some lumps.

According to the radar, it looked like we were going to get a good soaking. Got some light rain for a short, then the line of storms split around us and no mas rain. Cannot imaging that we got more than 1/2" which is fine considering all of the rain we have gotten lately,

Second round early this morning, around 1 am, dropped .20”. Sounded like some small hail for the first couple minutes.

Truck looks like it encountered a Gremlin carrying a small ball peen hammer. Already filed a claim. Filed on the 5er as well just in case. Have not been up top yet.
