Holy weather last night

[sniper7]

Was at my FILs place cooking up some elk steaks, playing pool, then the wind rolled in. That storm that came through was brutal. Pea to grape sized hail, power out for several hours, wind opened up his big patio umbrella and destroyed it, lifted the hot tub cover off and a couple lawn chairs went in.
he braved the weather to get the corn and steaks off the grill and finished them inside.
Had a cherry stout porter last night that was surprising good. Was supposed to be a wheat but the brewer screwed up and made it a stout.
This was in Erie, anybody get any damage? We were worried about the hail, some of it was pretty good sized

I am in Erie. Lost a couple of trees and the wife's garden. Other than than my neighborhood just had lots of lawn furniture blown around. was driving home in the thick of it and visability was zero at some points. Heading up to Greely now to check out a friends house, they are out of town and can't reach any neighbors.

We got some heavy wind here, rained for a little bit, but no hail. Some of the clouds above my house started to swirl like they were trying to get some rotation going, but never formed.

-barely a sprinkle....but it looked pretty dark to the East of here.

Just saw on the news 5 tornadoes touched down in eastern co but not much extra info

Must have been in the fields. Damage would have been reported fo sho

I was at a wedding last night and half the venue was flooded for 45 mins. It must have rained several inches in 30 mins but after the storm passed it dried up and was nice the rest of the night.

Awesome downpour, nothing but thunder. Sat on my patio drinking a hot cup of coffee and taking in the senses.

Saw the flash flood warnings for Adams, didn't see any other warnings.

We watched it build in the FoCo/Wellington area, then turn south. We saw high winds, a little rain/hail, but nothing bad.

I was standing in line for the demo derby and BOOM down pour bitches. Wife and I went home changed, ate then went back our for the final derby.

No real damage, but the cellar flooded a bit (about 50-70 gallons worth) and I had to move the car out of the street to keep the flood level below the doors. The street was 6" deep in the middle and well over a foot by the gutter.

Got caught in Greeley at 85 & 34 when the rain started and immediately came the hail. Took the first exit and drove around the the down wind side of the first building to the right and hugged the wall with the roof overhanging about 1/2 the truck. The hail was pea sized mostly with some as large as grapes. Scared the heck out of the wife and lasted for about 40 minutes altogether. After we got home I looked the truck over and there are some dings here and there but you have to look for them. At one point the rain was so heavy the wipers could not keep up.

Spotters reported several funnels couple miles northwest of us and storm was headed right at our place. Wife was driving home from Ft Morgan and in area with no cell service. Very frustrating not being able to reach her for warning. Radio had just reported that cell was falling apart, which was why she headed home.

Got a shit ton of rain and small hail. Tornado spotted couple miles east of Ft Morgan and another spotted near Log Lane Village.

Major props for the volunteers of Northern Colorado Skywarn and the Wiggins volunteer firemen. Monitored them on scanner while I was stuck in traffic jam between Monument and Greenland.

Coming back from dinner on Alameda between Federal and 25 there was a lot of water on the road. Up to the bottom of my Grand Cherokee in one spot. I was having fun. There was one dumb ass on the road whose wipers apparently didn't work.

Sometimes not needed. Got caught in a downpour last monday on I25. Was going 65 and did not have them on. Good coat of Rain-X on the windshield though.[Flower]

I had rain-x on mine. They definately didn't and were all over the place with their flashers on. It was a beater old truck.

Kind of what I thought but I always try and give the benefit of the doubt.[LOL]

I live East of DIA and we got hit pretty good. No hail at all, but a LOT of rain. My pasture had standing water everywhere, which is not normal, lol. The "dry" creek beds were roaring, it was pretty sweet. I did lose some more shingles off of my shop roof, but that has been an ongoing issue I need to get fixed.

All in all, I needed the rain for the pasture. So I was thankful even with the Tornado and Flash flood warnings.
