    We just saw on the national news the incredible hail that hit the Dallas area--golf ball to tennis size hail breaking car windshields, destroying greenhouses.and harming roofs.
    Toni, did you escape the damage (I sincerely hope so). Please let us know how you are!

    The weather alert radio was going off all morning but storm went across Tarrant county to our west, the closest was about 20 minutes away. We got absolutely nothing, not even some sprinkles as the storm moved north.

    When I saw the title of this thread, I expected Toni's response to be......"Hail yes"! ;)

    Well, it was good to hear that you and yours were oké during that stormy period. You can throw one hail of a party to celebrate.
