don’t say that. Flying in on the 19 for a wedding but stopping by our property to have a beer on it. The oak trees it had sold us, don’t want to lose them.

Glad to see everyone made it out ok. It’s Texas, if you’re not in the danger zone tonight you will be in a couple of days again. I spent quite a bit of time in a RV in the Midwest. The tornadoes don’t bother me. It’s the random 60+ mph winds that come out of nowhere with a squall line that can blow your trailer over without warning. Spent plenty of nights watching the radar and weather alerts on my phone while the family was asleep- or hearding drunks partying around the bonfire, while stashing chairs and preparing for chaos. Got lucky and never had any serious situations, the supercells always missed us by a couple of miles.

Not green......





Yet

Hiding in the 5th wheel. Just finished some packing for move day with the deck down. Got it all secured right before it broke loose.

I think the worst just passed us though. Thank goodness no hail here but the town nearby got some golf ball size :(

I’ve only found 24 packs of beer. No 30 packs. Weird 🤷‍♂️. I usually buy Coors Banquet or Lone Star.

had a tornado warning, but it’s back down to watch status. Some good thunder/rain and strong wind. Rotation nearby, but no touchdowns. Fairly calm now. Prosper (north of Frisco, TX).

good to hear you haven’t had any damage where you’re bunkered down. Hope you make it East without any issues.

I didn't try it....after 4 BLs tried a local Blonde and it was bitter :(

Did you try any Lone Star or Lone Star Light?

It's basically the Coors/Bud of Texas. I can't get it in CA.

Heading to Lucky Strikes....no 30 packs in FL either. He wanted me to pick up like 15 of them.....lol I said no go in TX and he said "You will be going thru other states so pick em up" :)

I tried the Lone Star light....it was OK.....I am hardcore BL though

Went to Costa Rica and thank goodness they had a good light beer along the lines of BL. I would have been an asshole if they didn't. :)

Weather seems to be following you. Lucky strike might be rethinking your visit by the time you arrive, will probably bring a hurricane with you, lol. Stay safe.

Native Texas across the street was in his garage with the door up chilling with his 9 month old. Lol. I guess after awhile you get desensitized to it?? First Spring for us in Texas. I guess we have a few years before it’s no big deal.

yeah, pick up some 30 packs where you find them. You need plenty of welcome gifts.

That’s nuts... I’m thinking I should get ins on the rental in a few weeks. Cars must be getting trashed.

That had to cause major damage.......I got lucky and didn't get the hail. Thats what I was afraid of

I am heading out tomorrow but have to get thru the south as well....lol

I like active weather but not this active
