Y'all's place getting any of this weather ? Watching The Weather Channel they had baseball size hail yesterday and today for Kansas and Oklahoma. Hail that size will leave a mark and tear some stuff up.

We didn't get any of it but Kansas is big and I'm on the eastern edge.  Baseball size?  Wow!  at 125 mph that's killing size.

I've always believed they exaggerate hailstone size but even half that size is way dangerous.

They was showing video with the hail stones in hand it was baseball size. Didn't catch it all but it was in Oklahoma or Kansas. Fingers crossed you don't get any bad stuff. Looks like The Great State Of Tennessee will get spared of this one?

It's just west of us here in Tecumseh and heading our way.
All battoned down and the Valks and VW are inside and protected.
Our house is earth sheltered and basically a storm shelter so we're ready!

I built a underground shelter after working a tornado in 1997 in Jackson , Tennessee . I wish it was closer to the house however its at the only place I had a bank to bury it underground. Would like to see a picture of your home if possible... Stay safe Buddy

A lifelong friend in McPhereson, KS told me last night that he was out and witnessed a tornado the previous evening.    He also said the Wx folks were predicting 2 inch hail.   Sad
We were reared in KS together and I’ve seen it before.   Can leave some very damaging results.

I saw that video also while eating lunch yesterday, man that is wicked.   I have been hit by a hundred mph baseball and watched my hand swell immediately.  A 125mph baseball size hail could certainly be lethal.   They said May is the most destructive month for severe storms.
