    How are ya'll in DFW? We dodged this one in north Texas (W.F. area). Saw on the weather channel how bad it was down there:eek: Hope everyones ok. For that matter, hope the folks at OKC are alright, too. Lots of hail and high winds just south and north of here. Be safe out there.

    Haltom City along highway 121 got the worst of it.
    I really tore up plenty of buildings, a warehouse full of 53' trailers stacked up like a pile of wood. Hail pea sized to baseball size.Not Good !!!
    The Texas Motor Speedway was missed except for winds and rain.
    Everything here in South Fort Worth is now calm.

    Well since i live less than 10 miles from Texas motor speedway i got a little nervous but it blew off to Grapevine instead of Flower Mound area. I grew up in WF and my parents said Holiday got some pretty good size hail.

    Mesquite has a bunch of twisted, ripped, and split trees on a few streets.

    I got my chainsaw ready to make some hot rod money tomorrow.

    We were actually in Parkland Hsopital when it went down. I was with the kids and we were racing toward the storm to get to the parking garage. As soon as we stepped foot in the hospital doors a lemon size chunk of ice hit right at our heels. Then the hospital went on "code black" or whatever and we were shooed in to a waiting room and all the doors were shut.. it was like some sort of lockdown... but other than that we escaped anything serious.
