Texas weather is really bipolar. I remember this. We were living in Richardson, close to Murphy and not to far from Wylie. Not a single hail stone dropped in our neighborhood. It was just heavy rain. So glad the hailcore missed us! So yeah, you never ever want to see a green sky above you!
In Tulsa ok 2013 , rain , storms, ⚡ thunder, then hail , then calm eerily green sky quiet, then the sound of locomotives 🌪️🌪️rolling down hwy44😮ef2 a few hundred yards away missed us .Very Weird night...
Ahhh, my Southern brethren. This is some great footage. You're yelling NO NO NO NO but you can not go inside. The sirens going off intrigues us more. 😅 In all seriousness I hope you kept safe and stay safe in the future. These storms are getting really nuts lately. ~ Okie
We were living in Plano at the time. Our yard was completely covered by golfball-sized and larger hail stones in about 15 minutes. In some areas of the yard, the hail was piled up over 4 inches deep. It was a very bizarre experience! My defenseless red 4Runner was badly pummeled, with its alarm screaming the entire time. The vehicle looked like it had been attacked by an enraged loon with a large ball peen hammer. There were homes in Wiley that had cannon ball size hail go completely through their roof and ceiling that day. One of our cats was badly affected by the storm and the deafening noise it caused. He is still traumatized by it. Every time the barometric pressure drops and Teddy feels a distant rumble of thunder vibrating the floor in our old pier and beam, he slinks into the hallway near our bedroom door and flattens out next to a desk, not moving at all until the storm and all the noise stops. We seldom ever hear the thunder or detect the change in barometric pressure, but Teddy does. Poor little purrboy.
That was terribly scary. I would have freaked out. I am so sorry for the damage you suffered, but you provided some of the best hail footage I have ever seen.
In the future, please don't wave the camera back forth so fast. One landed in the pool, you swung the camera to that, we don't have time to make sense of what we are seeing, and you immediately swing around to look at sonething elsd. Pick one thing to focus on and stay on it.
In 98, I lived in Western Kentucky and we had 3 tornados in our city. It brought baseball/softball size hail. It was so bad, in the days and months following, you couldn't go anywhere without seeing hail damaged vehicles. Several car dealerships had total losses to all of their vehicles too. I drove my old 84 Scottsdale to work that day and only suffered a few dents. Lil bondo and paint and my ride was good to go. Helluva day though. Never experienced anything like it.
6:32 - "I'm startin' to get worried. Nah, we're fine." Literally 3 minutes later: Hailstones the size of grapefruits and winds gusting to 70 mph hit their home and destroy their windows
Nobody does basements in Texas, mate. It's probably riskier to stand at a window💥 trying to catch rare footage like this than to stay well under the porch roof.
That storm produced some of the best hail footage of any in the US in the last several years. Nice documentation of it! I bet those stones damaged your roof/windows/cars pretty badly.
