Not a good time to be outside.
You really appreciate shelter when you see things like this.

first professional engagement was with a major oil company in Houston, c. 1982 - 1987.
One Saturday afternoon a BIG hailstorm happened (not nearly like the OK video), which dropped golf-ball sized hail for 15 mins.
EVERY geologist I knew in Houston donned their hardhats and ventured out to "feel" it. Not ONE engineer did.
I'm jes' sayin'.......

Nope, they were of the class of people who can learn from others' mistakes, they aren't of the first class, those who have to pee on the electric fence themselves.

The good Lord has been watching over me the past few weeks. I live in southern Norman (a city at the south edge of the Okla. City metro area). Tornado missed the house by just over two miles (that's not that far!). Big hail went north and south (we just got some little stuff). I feel sorry for the folks that got hit. I'd rather have weather than earthquakes, though...
