It went from almost 90* here to near 50* quick. After the 3-4 rounds of hail between dime, and ping pong ball sizes, it blew like crazy-60mph winds. KNoked out out tv reception, but that's luckily the only thing...today it is 41*!

The wind came in, and the storms popped up around 4:30 yesterday (4/19). It is never a good thing when the storm chasers from the shows on TV are by your house!

Pea sized hail in Pea Ridge, Arkansas today! Springdale, AR had hail over 2.5 inches in diameter! Pictures on TV showed several cars in a parking lot that had windows knocked out! Rain, rain, go away, come again another day! :)

Always have the weather channel on here....we actually did pretty well on our side of Branson last two days (more south and east had hail and possible tornado issues). We had quick in and out wind/rain and then this afternoon, heavy rain etc. supposed to rain for the next 8 days but I'm optimistic; mainly afternoons I think after tonight. Hard to fully enjoy SDC (ok the rides) during this weather but have learned out here that it can rain on the other side of town and be sunny on this side or vice versa. Coming from Colorado originally, here though it really is a flip of a coin. :P

Yeah I'm not overly happy about the current weather system as I had planned on going to SDC tomorrow but I'm not driving almost 5 hrs for a rainy day
