So last night… there was a rumor that there was a bad Texas spring storm heading our way…
Yeah… that beast was producing a few funnels here and there and golf ball sized hail… From my house, I had the perspective of being on a hill overlooking the storm coming in and it looked like a plague. Super dark clouds and lightning kept edging closer, with next to no wind and that calm before the storm feeling.
At any rate, things started to come down and let me tell you, I’ve never seen hail like that before… the ground was completely covered in hail (the largest being marble sized). High winds and lots of lightning made for one heck of a storm.
And yeah, I hate storms… and not really liking the fact that Texas homes don’t have basements… I was under a blanket in the hallway, cause you know, the mighty blanket protects you from everything….
I survived… barely…
Dude, if you hate storms, you’re living in the wrong state. :-P But honestly, try moving out to Riverside sometime. You’ll learn to love the hell out of storms. Or even clouds. It’s so damned boring weather-wise out here, it’s sad.
