To hail with that.

I'll take snow any freakin' day.

People in Texas go apeshit when it hails. LOL

I've ridden in hail/motha stingin rain and hopefully never have to do that again. Rain is fine but not hail. It hurt and I felt violated.

I cant wait till rain hits here, if it ever will.

I know we had small hail but it's very uncommon to get hail here. The local news just showed hail that was golfball size from the storm. They also showed some homes that were destroyed by possible tornadoes.

It came through this area as well...but it was just rain.

But Ill take it it will wash the roads away off the left over salt and sand.

Just rain here too...sucks, cuz I was gonna grill ribs today...

People back home ask me if I'm crazy for moving up north where snow is often measured in feet...I just ask them if they're nuts for still living where their house can blow away with no warning. At least we can prepare for snow... I do NOT miss tornadoes, and I've been in a few...let it snow, baby...
