107 then the ground covered with hail? I guess it's true. If you don't like the weather, wait a while and it'll be a whole 'nuther story!

It sure is some crazy weather this year, we where 107 here today also in the Texas Pandhandle area , but we didn't get any rain though and we need it really bad, but I wouldn't want all that hail though :shock:

Maybe some rain coming our way next week!!!

sweet 06-17-2011 04:30 AM

We need rain too. That hail storm is amazing.

cinnya 06-17-2011 04:48 AM

That is the same storm that caused our problems,we didn't get the hail out here by the lake, hardly any rain just the awful winds.
They said it was a dry thunderstorm.What?????
never heard of that before.
The storm was still between Altus and Lawton when the winds started here,absolutely no warning.
We are waiting for the insurance to come out .our roof is mainly gone,let the clean-up begin.

sewgull 06-17-2011 04:59 AM

That's scary weather. Looks like snow. We need rain here in SC.

cabbagepatchkid 06-17-2011 05:01 AM

Famous last words..lol.He sounds like my husband.
I am sorry about your flowers,like I said we didn't get any hail out here.all our damage came from the wind.Insurance adjuster is coming out tomorrow because of the roof.
We have been hunting for our stuff all morning,what wasn't attached went into the woods.
We had to come in though it is so hot again, maybe go out later in the evening.
OH the joys of living in Oklahoma....wouldn't live anywhere else :-D :-D

Weather has been mixed up last several years, all around the country. It seems to happen in cycles.
