These are nice rains the past several days. Good soaking ones that help get out of the drought conditions.

Not only do I really have to mow the yard but it didn't rain since yesterday morning so it's not going to be too messy out there. I'm pretty happy with my yard right now!

Ours bounced completely back. Looks like spring again. Just wild.

Same! Amazing how quick it bounces back. I can tell a few spots in the backyard where it probably died out but I also don't water as much back there.

Bizarre little pop up storm just sitting over our house for last 20 minutes or so. Developed out of thin air.

Another good rain here in Plano; however, some tiny pea size hail.

Extremely windy.

Wow. Had to evacuate the pool. The wind and hail, this is crazy. I didn't think there was a chance of rain.

Same. Power went out for two minutes here and then came back on. Never seen that before.

AT&T is also down here. That's a first. Weird storm.

Wow that was nuts!

Intense wind and rain in NW Fort Worth about 30 min ago. Seemed to come out of nowhere. Had to be 70+ mph gusts. Lots of fences down in neighborhood and tree limbs everywhere. Was just finishing up mowing when it hit. Rain first, so I was able to quickly edge the front and get inside about time the worst hit.

So I shouldn't have put out preemergent this morning? Next time I'll save the money and wash my car.

About 30 minutes of heavy rain in NW Dallas thankfully work no hail. I did a poor man's dethatching on a big dead spot in my yard earlier today, so hopefully this helps Jumpstart it back

Wow. That's nuts. This storm reminded me of that one random June storm that hit East Dallas with 80 mph winds

That's about 100 yards from my old house. Hope they had good builder's risk insurance.

As a former old east Dallas resident, power was much spottier at my place there than it seems to be in Lakewood (barring a tree falling on a line)

Hillbrook and southridge checking in. Ours went out for 2-3 minutes but then came back on

Oh the neighborhood is full of broken tree limbs.

Bad thing is the 96 yr old across the street is sitting in the dark. I brought her dinner and a battery powered lantern. Hope it stays cool enough that I won't have to hook up my generator and portable ac for her. She is too stubborn to have out at my place

We used to lose power with one cloud in the sky back when we lived in Hollywood Santa Monica.

Good man.

Had some big pecan limbs (6-9" diameter) bounce off the roof of my 90+ yr old bungalow near Skillman & Richmond. Looks like I have at least one cracked rafter. Still no power as of 8:30pm when I evacuated (i.e., went to get dinner somewhere with A/C).

That's sucks, man. For some reason I didn't have internet either the entire time.
