Great googly moogly! We're having a hail storm right out of hell. I've *never* heard ('cause who'd be out in something like this willingly?) a storm like this. Wow, no Chinese delivery for me, dammit. ::cries::

Holy shit!

Oh come on, make them come out in the hail! LOL

Vicki went to dinner with her family at TGIFridays... I hope they are ok!

(did you see my post yesterday about you & Columbus?)

ROFL! Seriously! I have to admit that as soon as it started to calm down, I thought, yeah, I can call now. Well, maybe I'll wait 'til the tornado sirens stop. Such is my mania for Chinese food. It's calmed down quite a bit, so I'm about to call. Oh my God, I'm trying to feel guilty but I just can't. CHINESE FOOD! I love it too much to let a hail storm *or* a tornado watch get in my way. I'm a bad, bad (hungry!) person. ;-)

Dammit, the warning sirens just started up again. ::shakes fist::

A couple of hailstones hit the air conditioner that made me scream out loud. HAHAHA! The weather guy just said to watch out for dime-sized hail. Well, newsflash, I just looked outside and saw a couple of pieces about half the size of a golf ball. I've seen my share of hail storms, but I'd say this is definitely one of the scariest.

I'd hate to have gotten caught in that while driving! Hopefully they were already in the restaurant.

No! I'm off to read now. :-)

LOL @ the tornado sirens... everytime Vicki comes here she freaks out because there's a fire station right down the street and whenever there's a fire they blare the siren and she thinks it's the tornado sirens.

LOL! I can sympathize! Have you ever been here during a tornado watch/warning? I swear, you haven't lived until you've experienced 50 MPH winds, a weird, pinkish-orange sky, tornado sirens *and* the weird tornado PA system guy announcing "SEEK SHELTER" in his booming 'voice of God' way.

I hate to sound so geographically ignorant, but is your area tornado prone?

Nope, never been there during one. I wouldn't say we are "tornado prone" but we do have our share of tornado warnings. We don't have a guy coming over a PA system though! LOL

Freakiest. Thing. Ever. EVER. Imagine a tornado siren, but instead of a siren it's some guy with a deep voice booming: SEEK SHELTER. SEEK SHELTER. I nearly crapped my pants the first time I heard it (awakened from a sound sleep at like, 2:30 in the morning!). FREAKY!

no hail but we weren't in Westerville, I had heard a tornado went through somewhere in Westerville but I'm not sure where.

Lots of flooded streets on the way home. We're okay though.

I'm glad to hear you're okay! That was one seriously hellacious storm! I've been lucky, I've never had to drive in a hail storm. I'd be *majorly* freaked out!

Husband!monkey heard that Reynoldsburg and Pickerington, I think, had tornado sightings. !!! That's something I hope I never see firsthand. :-(
