(83,458 posts)At least most of the storms are moving east, ahead of them. My friend in Fort Worth said the forecasts were speaking of baseball-size hail. She was more fearful of that than tornadoes - which she said had passed them by at quite a safe distance. But she just had to have her whole roof replaced from the last bad hail storm.
Hopefully the storms will have moved out of range by the time ACIDIC gets there.
