I already promised her the hottest 3 seconds of her life.

We've had a few weeks of "wow it feels like it's gonna rain" without it actually raining that day. Weirdest weather I can remember.

Not to mention highs in the 60s in late April. It's odd.

Pretty much? Girl… the Off cans are out and the beer is extra cold.

Pools need to warm up quick.

MI promised mine a triple digit experience for Mother's Day. It may shock her.

Not sure why my pics won't load but severe thunderstorm warning just issued for Grayson county. Was able to snap a few pics of mammatus (sp?) clouds.

I started running out side to save my plants and little trees. Forgot about the kids outdoor playtable umbrella. Was grabbing it and thought I was about to be Mary Poppins out of Celina heading south

Crazy winds knocked out the power in Rockwall. Just what I was hoping for after driving back from CS this evening.

Prosper trail and DNT. just east of it. Rain gauge has eight inches with another line to come.

8"?!?

I knew we got a lot last night but geeze

It just kept coming. I think 3 or 4 different waves last night. That hail wave wasn't fun. Nothing too big but there was a decent amount of it.

There was a lake in my backyard. Downspouts were overflowing because my drainage pipes couldn't handle the sheer volume of water. Gushing up at the street at the exit drains.

same, there's a whole little weather station thing you can buy on Amazon for about $100. temp, pressure, wind speed/direction and rain gauge, all digital.

I might as well give you mine as there has been no need for them over here lately!

There is someone about 1/4 of a mile from us that has a ridiculously pimped out weather station and his own website that is live updated with all of the data. I always just use him as a proxy for what happened at my place. I think both of his kids are in college now pursuing degrees in meteorology. These people are major weather junkies, and i appreciate benefitting from their effort

Far North Dallas, except it feels more like another dimension. We see giant storms roll in all the time and they pummel everything north of us, but we rarely get 1/4 inch of rain or more than a few gusts of wind.

Well, we did get those tornadoes that played hopscotch across our neighborhoods from Irving through Richardson, but everything else usually gets walled off by the invisible forcefield of Dallas proper.

The urban heat island micro climate effect is real.

Yeah, we call it the Addison heat dome. Seems to take the steam out of storm lines for far north dallas and Richardson. I play a lot of golf at Sherrill Park, and we oftentimes see ominous stuff coming from the west weaken big-time once it hits that heat dome around the tollway. So we'll play or keep playing assuming it will lessen or miss us entirely. Doesn't always, but has many many times
