I recieved about 5 minutes worth of hail in the 1/4" to 3/4" range at my house near Gessner and I-10. Local reports are that it was even worse about 2.5 miles to my south. Now that the rain has stopped and the sun is trying to come out I will go out and check for damage. If the pictures I took are good enough I will upload them later.

Wow! Just clicked over to another station and we have had winds to 80mph reported to my NE(near my son's school)at I-45 and Sam Houston Tollway, as well as rain rates up to 5"/hr.(which I think we experienced here for a short while).

It must have weakened a little before getting here. We had a lot of lightning and very loud thunder, but no hail at my house.

<<whew>> I love the thunder and lightning but don't want any hail.

Yes indeed, Jonathan... I would like some action here, as well. Could use the rain across central Florida. It isn't common to see to a lot of rain in April, but we did have a very wet March. :wink:

Garrett, sorry to interrupt the line of severe weather warnings... but I would like to do this too, but there are so many warnings being issued it can be hard to keep up and you do get away from the computer and by the time you're (one) is back the warnings have expired... and then there are some overnight warnings at times, too.
