This is our new venture into urban chasing ... lol :rolleyes:

DFW airport is in the path of this beast, glad I'm not flying back this evening as the airport will be closed with 70 mph wind gusts.

They are on the move again.

Quite an unsettling weather report there, my Dad lives in Irving, and looks like it is heading right for him. Think he's used to it by now...?

Looks like they are delaying a lot of the flights out of DFW for the moment. With that mess coming down on them I'm not surprised!

We have just been through the most amazing baseball size hailstorm!!! Trees are stripped of leaves along the road - no windows smashed but some dents.

Gonna have some great video footage uploaded later of us taking baseballs.

Incredible day.
