You just have no idea how bad it can get. I had a vehicle destroyed, and I do mean destroyed, literally totalled, in what we (in DFW) call the Mayfest ‘95 storm. It was large, grapefruit-size hail. That car looked like it’d been in a war zone. It couldn’t have been more damaged if five grown men had taken a sledgehammer to it.

I have a friend who was at that Mayfest with her husband. When the hail started they were running for shelter and she was hit in the head by a chunk the size of a softball. Some video that was sent to a local TV station just happened to include the moment when she was hit. She was taken to the hospital and had to spend the night for observation, after getting a lot of stitches.

I only had hail about nickle to quarter size here in South Grapevine this evening. .........The Rangers ballgame has resumed!!! It’s now bottom of the 6th!
