Got the hail too. This reminded me of the same thing when that tornado destroyed parts of Lancaster a decade or so ago.

I did the exact same thing, heard the wind rushing, went to the door to look outside, trees going every which way, that weird “alien lightning” where it’s short staccato flashes everywhere but no thunder, and the sky is all green.

Only with Lancaster, the tornado passed within 1/4 mile of my house in Cedar Hill.

I’ve never seen the tornados threaten one area for as long as it did tonight. They usually pass over quickly, not linger overhead for hours!

Finally looks like we may be out of the woods, but I wonder about Wilmer-Hutchins.

I've heard of those effects when twisters are dropping out of major thunderstorms, but I've never seen it up close. Hope I never do!

Glad you're all good.
