Those are BIG hailstones in the picture. They look like meteorites.

Just 5 miles southwest of me, they had something like this two weeks ago. Over 1 ft of hail, closing 5 miles of I-74, causing slideoffs, etc.
They finally had to call out the snowplows to remove it, and you could still see traces of it two days later, despite the 80 degree temps.

I’m not doubting it was bad, but one needs to use the word “drifts” when referring to 4 to 6 feet of hail. Without the photos, the words give an impression of that level of hail everywhere, which doesn’t appear to be the case.

All the more reason that people from California and Damned Yankeeland should stay out of Texas. It is crazy and dangerous here. The winters are brutal, the summers are hot, and the insects are so large that we put saddles on them.

Jeepers! Perhaps I'd better reconsider my retirement location plans. Texas is not for beginners.
