Everyone come through last night ok? It was a little hairy at times, but no damage here.

Just water logged. Tornados went pretty much both sides of us as did most of the hail...at least we didn't get the softball sized stuff some folks did. Susan spent some time huddled in the bath tub with the cat. Me of course I was outside watching...until the rain got so bad you couldn't see across the street...oh and that lightning was something too. Flash and BOOM less than a second later.

Guess i spoke too soon. Buddy of mine called me this morning, he keeps his RV in the stall next to mine. Said I better come and look at it.

Ouch - major hail damage. Apparently it was tennis ball size. All the skylights are gone, every taillight and marker light are gone. Everything on the exterior that was plastic is broken or gone. The awning, althought still tighly rolled up is all frayed on the top. Suprisingly all the windows are intact. I didn't get up on the roof, but I'm sure the power tv antenna and air conditioners are trashed too.

So much for trading it in on a toy hauler now...

Cory, was this damage from the storms last night? (June 14)
We saw a lot of lightning, but everything went north of us. Just got enough sprinkles to
mess up the dirt on the cars.

No it was from April 11. I had no idea they got hail up there, I keep it in Prosper.

They have totaled 25 units from the storage yard already, I don't think mine will total, but it will be close I bet.

You guys actually get sprinkles? Right now that would be a downpour here in the arid Houston area.
