Hail

  "Hailstorm hammers the Valley"
This was the headlines in this mornings Monitor! It missed us ! The weather man said we were to get storms late yesterday and we got em! A few hailstones as large as baseballs spotted in Mission and McAllen. Most of the hail was dime to nickle sized. But mostly rain. It was a very fast moving storm and there were some Tornado warnings. And again Weslaco was spared! We didn't even get much rain. It seems the storm went into Mexico before getting into our area, it was heading S.E. When we went out to eat the sky was really dark South of us and East of us. there were hail warnings for Southern Hidalgo County and of course I was nervous. Seeing how dark the sky was East of us I thought that couldn't have gone over us without heavy rain or hail but it did.
