Serious weather headed this way
We just tucked the cars into the garage. I expect another spate of hail - 'twould be the 4th time in 2 months.

:(

3. Houston
Looks like it may have rearranged bits of Austin and San Antonio on its way here...

6. Thanks
The entire neighborhood has had roof damage due to hail in the last 6 weeks - hence the cars getting to spend the night indoors. We usually leave them in the driveway, mostly because we need to replace the garage door opener. Not tonight.

4. It just started raining
There were several tornado warnings west of us, all of which have expired. I don't fancy getting one here - the weather's quite sufficiently wiggy without twisters, thank you very much. :scared:

7. Hold on!
It's been horrible up here in N. Texas, too. Almost makes a person miss 100f days, doesn't it? :hi:

8. Saw some stuff coming through to the north
Are you and yours undamaged?

And of course, this won't keep the temps from hitting near-boiling during the day for the next 4 months...

:hi:

9. Well, our roof got damage on Thursday...
..and we have a leak, now, in the master bathroom. Luckily, my husband is pretty handy. He already got up on the rooftop and patched it up. We just have to do some minor sheetrock repair and painting. Could have been much worse!
