Baseball.... maybe some softball. Was out looking at damage across parts of town. Looked like snow. Completely white ground. Cars out side destroyed. Windows knocked out of homes etc. I’ve not seen hail damage like this before.... and I’ve lived here a long time.

That happened in Nebraska way in `27 or around that time.

You should go to the source URL and have a look at some of the videos posted to YouTube.... You’ll be glad you MISSED this storm cell! While I was poking around, I looked at weather for our area and it’s looking like we’ll be fortunate IF we are missed this evening. Ah well...we’ll see. :-)

Here’s a video of a storm that rolled through OKC on the 10th of this month that produced softball-size hail.

I used to live in OKC, and I certainly don't miss the hailstorms or tornadoes.

Oh yeah, let's not forget the ice storms in winter.
