Weather, weather everywhere


Nice big thunderstorm hit tonight. I put a big towel over my back windshield since they were panicking and saying "Hail! Wind! Tornadoes! OMG!", and so, of course, we had only pea-sized hail--lots of wind and rain, thunder and lightning, though. I had a couple of scared cats and I kept the flashlight nearby (after I powered down the computer). Nice change after almost reaching 100F today. That's two months early...we don't normally hit those types of temperatures until August, at least. *sigh*

One of our storm chasers (not with V2) was reporting in on the Austin storm last night on Facebook. The satellite image of the storm was very impressive. [livejournal.com profile] tingler commented that it looked like the eye of Jupiter.

It was a big ol' supercell, all right. They were calling it a 'stealth cell' on the radio this morning.

There was a report of a tornado touchdown a couple of miles from my place, but I think it was a false alarm.
