Denver hail

For those of you that may have been effected, how bad was it? Heard on the news this morning that it shut down the Denver airport.

3-4 more days of it, today being worse than yesterday.

We didn't even get wet yesterday (south of Denver), but my Redwood is sitting at the Dealer for two weeks after being snuggled in a garage all winter, and I'm feeling naked and nervous!

7 tornados kind of scary as well. How would you like to be rolling down the runway looking at this out the window! Hail grounded a few planes for repairs.

That doesn't look good at all.

Hey Brad, at least your coach is inside and protected...I hope.

Nope - its sitting on the lot with the rest of them staged for work. Based on what mine needs done, I doubt they will take it inside at all. Like Coloradolivin, I'm watching Doppler Radar all day Vaughan! Not that I can do anything about it except go "whew" when it misses

I hope all the bad weather blows out of the area soon and there is no damage to property and life. I will be passing through that area in about 2 weeks and I plan to be watching the weather carefully.

The weather will be PERFECT in 2 weeks - I guarantee it because I will be out of town on business

Looks like Northeast seaboard is getting heck now!

Brad, it must be terrible for you guys to check Doppler constantly during this season. Storms most always break up here in the Northeast after you're done with them. It's cold & wet out here. Too bad you couldn't send them west where they really need them...

Thanks for the concern 5th time! Doppler is my friend I've parked on the side of the road and watched hail storms go by and never even got wet The new Garmin RV760 throws Doppler on the screen through my smart phone.

I found a CDOT streaming traffic camera right down the street from the Dealer where the Redwood is at. I watched it on the computer at work through the storms today. Not that I could do anything about it, but would like to know if it gets hit so I can check for water damage.

I use the Radar Now app on both of our cell phones. We will be in MN in early June and you can get some severe weather during g that time.

Thanks S&K! There are three of us at the Dealer crossing our fingers. Couple more days and this should be done for a bit.

Brad, we usually get your weather the next day here in Kansas City. Lots of rain but no hail. Glad you're ok.

Thanks Steve and Linda!

These storms seem to be on a journey to Nebraska - so hope you are avoiding some of the worse parts.

So we are getting some good rain, temps at 48F. Lit the wood stove right now to take off the chill. Nothin like Spring time in the Rockies
