A powerful thunderstorm unloaded hail as large as 3 inches in diameter north of San Antonio on Saturday morning. Slightly larger than a baseball, hail of this size can cause significant damage and endanger people and animals without shelter.

Large hail of similar sizes also pounded areas north of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.

Just got an alert from the Weather Channel that a tornado hit a Texas town with fatalities.

Prayers up for all Texans here

Yeah, I'm between College Station and Dallas.  It was exciting for a while, but the sun is out now.  The electric company promises our power will be on in 5 or 6 hours.

@Freya, is that the one in College Station?

Oh, it see, it was Franklin:  https://www.kwtx.com/content/news/Significant-damage-in-Franklin-after-tornado-slams-town-injuries-reported-508539291.html

Luckily, no fatalities.

@Sanguine

Stupid weather channel alert said fatalities.

They also said the weather would hit a high of 76 here today. The high was 74
