Apparently there was hail up to 1.75 inches in diameter. For those of yall playing at home, that’s a golf ball. Here’s a blurry picture of the courtyard of my apartment with a generous layer of frozen death balls, didn’t get a picture of the river i was standing in that had freaking icebergs in it.

All of a sudden having an underground parking spot doesn’t seem like such a ridiculous extravagance, since it saved my dented car from being dented.
Holy crap, the world is ending outside. I think this is the first time I’ve been in a true Texas storm. I thought I’d seen hail…no, I was wrong. Huge freaking chunks of ice were falling from the sky. I hope the house is okay.
It has frustrated me a lot that OSX displays the time in the upper right hand corner and has an option to display the freaking day of the week, but doesn’t allow you to display the actual date. Unless it does:

That might be the most egregious use of internationalization I’ve ever seen, but it works. I love it when titles apply in more than one way.
