Holy WEATHER Batman!

What is the deal tonight? I was thinking that there would be a tornado, but was not 100% sure. I guess one touched down in Pryor about 20 minutes ago. How is the weather in Billings? In Shepherd it has almost come to a halt.

its nasty here in lockwood!

Billings it's pretty bad- all vehicles in the garage!

its crazy in lockwood, well, was..

It was pouring while we were in Billings yesterday. It seems like part of the storm followed us as it's pouring in Bozeman now.

It was pouring like crazy in the heights. There was some pretty bad wind for a while but no hail, thank god.

Damn, it was hailing like a mother out here with 50+mph winds. We really lucked out and got all the vehicles locked up about an hour before the storm showed up.

Heavy downpour, now it is just raining all over town (just came from west end to heights)

I hid out in a parking garage downtown with my puppy since I don't have a garge

Its so funny up here when stoms like this hit. TO me this is a normal spring shower. To the locals it's like a freak show. I bet half the walmart employees in Laurel were outside betting on which clouds were going to be a tornado earlier when I was there. It was so funny. I'm used to hail and tornados. Seeing people freaking out and in such aww was amusing. I can't wait to get my truck running so I can chase these stoms and take some nice pics.

Never saw any hail on the west end (THANKS JOSH FOR LOOKING OUT FOR US) but I was gettin worried for a bit it was a hurricane where I was

out in ironwood it was raining really hard but no hail, clouds were dark

no hail in lockwood, that i noticed, but there was hail downtown.

my parents said there was hail over at the shop but idk i was working haha

Well we are missing about 10% of our trees out here. I guess the winds were over 60mph. I was going to run outside when it was hailing and see how bad the hail would hurt at 60. HA HA HA.

This weather is pretty consistent every year about this time. Mid June is a great time for hardcore weather. It has been a very long time since the last tornado though, at least this close to Billings. Hardin gets tornadoes every year.

That's awesome lol.I use to do that in Japan during typhoon season. How's your dog with the thunder and all? My dog freaks out

She doesn't mind the thunder at all it doesn't seem. Hell, we have to force her to come inside when it's raining otherwise she'd stay out in it the whole time lol. My parents Daushounds welp and cry and try to hide under furniture, our puppy just tilts her head like "wtf was that" and then goes back to what she was doing lol.

We had marble to almost golf ball size. The wife's honda got beat down and the house has a broken window and all the plastic trim around them is toast and the garage doors got the beat down too!

I'm assuming you had the beast in the garage. That sucks man. Hopefully you had hail insurance on the honda

It's all my fault, the weather. I finally got my act together with all the necessary equipment for tuning my car, and was all set to go out and start logging.

Way to go!!! Had to get everything installed and ready to tune, didn't you? HA HA HA.

Yep the charger was in the garage. She tried to out run it but got stuck in the hail for about a minute before she pulled it into the garage. It got a major beating but we have full coverage.

The charger actually took damage from the hail? :/

Bummer
