No problem! So far though have only received a report of 1'' hail 2 miles south of Huntsville. It looks like most of the larger hail likely fell in a sparsely populated section of Walker county.

Wow, huge amount of lightning to my north, I'm in Kingwood. However, looking at the radar, might be a pretty strong cap directly over Houston as the storms are dissipating as they approach.

Does anyone have a radar of the hail cores in these thunderstorms? I was getting some lightning here in Baytown and saw some ENE of Harris County. I am concerned about my plants in my backyard wondering if I should place them under my the back porch due to those thunderstorms producing hail.

I'm just outside of that tornado warning, a bit to the north of it and we're getting a nice steady rain, lightning but surprisingly not a lot of thunder or at least not the loud kind of thunder you would expect with a severe TS warning. Weird.

I slept through everything last evening. Harris County rainfall map shows what looks like the track of a shower across central Houston to around Dickinson. Max rain of 0.36" in the Pasadena area. Nothing in southwest Houston, and nothing at IAH. It would appear that I'll win this month's contest, as chances of over 0.55" at IAH in a day before June 1st look unlikely.

I'm glad that some of y'all saw rain but this is getting down right pathetic! I literally witnessed a strong storm completely fall apart just miles out to my west right before hitting me. I didn't even get a drop out of it! Where's my Zanax!!
