Take me all the way damn it, gimme a real thunder storm
redraider-102@reddit
I’m stuck on the tarmac at DFW because the gates are closed. I’d appreciate not having a dramatic storm while I’m in this plane
ViolaFields@reddit
How long was the ground stop?
redraider-102@reddit
We got to our gate about an hour late, after landing on time.

No thank you. I'll take a full day of rain over hail, straight-line winds, tornados and lightning taking out the grid.
El-MonkeyKing@reddit
The lightning is gnarly tonight
CuriousCamels@reddit
Craziest lightning show I’ve seen in at least a year.
omgfloofy@reddit
It was nuts. According to Steve McCauley, the lightning was arcing from the top of the storm to hit as far as 60 miles away, too.

I live in Weatherford, right on the edge of Springtown, and I'm on this subreddit for events. My house lost its siding and skirting last night and I'm going not going to have power for days and tomorrow is supposed to get close to 96 degrees. Who knows if any of my electronics browned out. But there goes all of my food, including a chest freezer, and having to figure out the logistics for my pets and everything else. OP can have my storms
GrantRhymes@reddit
Great photo op for those so inclined.

I was out walking and was thinking “crap!” Because I was far from my apt and there was nowhere to take cover. I skedaddled back home as quickly as I could. It was crazy seeing lightning only going half way and not hitting the ground.

Careful what you wish for lol.

You were saying?
IFlyAircrafts@reddit
Lol ya we are about to get rocked here in 30 minutes or so….
AcceptableProduce296@reddit
You could always move to Moore, Oklahoma. That place gets cleaned off the map at least once every few years. You'll definitely get your fix there.
ArmWarm8743@reddit
It’s unfortunate that the storm that hit Runaway Bay didn’t hit your home instead. 🙄
JustMarshalling@reddit
This is the “shit or get off the pot” season. Fronts take forever to finally roll through, we have to sit through a solid week of humid, warm, cloudy weather before anything pleasant happens.
Adidasboy07@reddit
Had frequent lightning where I live. You must have think I was at a rave party.
diptripflip@reddit
Typical - here we go slut shaming the storm for expressing her meteorology.
favorthebold@reddit
Ok so, I live in Bedford, and I genuinely thought being in the mid cities would mean more storms for me but no, most of the time they pass over and hit Dallas instead.
Today was the FIRST EVER time the storm swung around and hit us with the angry fist of Zeus and I am SO HAPPY.

Anybody remember the tornadoes of 1999? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tornadoes_of_1999
Far-Today4442@reddit
I blame every single one of you guys in the comments and OP
savannah31401@reddit
Sirens in East Dallas...thanks
DeathByGoldfish@reddit
I’m about to get hailed on. First hail storm to hit me in 13 years at my house. This storm is not messing around. Normally, the heat island of Downtown shelters me, but this supercell just laughed.
dahyunsbby@reddit
it’s already hailing really bad over me right now
BestCryptoandRevMain@reddit
Look what you did bro
YaGetSkeeted0n@reddit (OP)
all right everyone i'd like to apologize for making the monkey's paw curl. in my defense i'd had a few beers and some whisky
CuriousCamels@reddit
Looked like the worst of it was going to miss Dallas, and then the storm started moving due east when it got near Fort Worth. I blame you. I’m loving the lightning show though.
Meiyaaaaa@reddit
Sirens in oak cliff rn bestie 😭
quantumthrashley@reddit
Too late for apologies, eat the paw and chase it with more whiskey or we’re all doomed
Mess_Tricky@reddit
I literally felt my building shake a few minutes ago after thunder, wtf
happy_dad857@reddit
FOR REAL!!! I was soooooo looking forward to that storm. And then, nothing 😒 Huge bummer
IFlyAircrafts@reddit
There is literally a tornado on the ground right outside of Fort Worth
Little_Sherbet_2751@reddit
Night tornados are sooo scary 😢
mynytemare@reddit
Laying here in bed wondering where it went. It was building all day. I was going to sleep so good. Now, now I’m just going to doomscroll all night
lil_unnyon@reddit
here is the thunderstorm you ordered
sealclubberfan@reddit
I mean it looks like theres a pretty big tornado to the northwest, I'll take the teasing over that.
Pumpnethyl@reddit
We are at a Goose concert in Irving, Toyota Music Pavilion. Show got halted
cyrusamigo@reddit
That sucks, but better to be safe.
caphair@reddit
We’ve had good rain
4ofheartz@reddit
Happy cake day 🎉
caphair@reddit
Thank you!
omega_watts@reddit
You can miss me with that. NTX gets biblical storms and I don’t have ark money.
quantumthrashley@reddit
And I’d like to be able to get insurance. Already got denied homeowner’s because companies are pulling out of DFW.
trippapotamus@reddit
I’ll just take the fact that it finally cooled down and doesn’t feel like suffocating death outside anymore.
Vinylforvampires@reddit
You’re tempting fate. I don’t need no tree crashing through my roof
quantumthrashley@reddit
Right? I still have storm PTSD from the derecho that sent a tree through my roof two years ago 😭
IAmTurdFerguson@reddit
Fort Worth is about to get rocked. You don't want this.
PXLDUBZ@reddit
Bro I promise you don’t want the hands from Mother Nature. The storm on the way is blowing up transformers, causing explosions, and tearing up people’s homes.
ZiggyMangum@reddit
I live in Addison but am housesitting in Boyd and the hail is apocalyptic.
digitalquesarito@reddit
This storm is probably gonna miss us ☹️
ProudNativeTexan@reddit
It's coming.

Leader_Bud@reddit
How about just extended sprinkles. It feels so nasty outside.
South-Succotash-6368@reddit
Nah frr.
