This was one of the strongest, short duration storm systems to hit the central Texas area in quite a while. We had 3/4 inch - golf ball size hail at my home. Some roof damage, trees stripped of leaves, garden is shredded and 3.8 inches of rain.
There is a national weather service station within 1/2 mile of my work. During the height of the storm, that station recorded 1/3 inch of rain in three minutes and 1/2 inch in eight minutes.

Wow, that's intense!
I live in an apartment in Cedar Park (2nd floor), and was awaken at 5 am by a gigantic thunder boom. I opened the balcony door slightly, and my bedroom blinds so I could see and hear the storm. The rain was coming down in giant waves - and the lightning was constant. I think we ended up with 4 inches of rain in about 3 hours. No damage here at the complex though.
