Warnings were up for severe weather from Dallas TX south to the Gulf Coast. I felt I was safe being in south Texas, and west of the warning area.
Overnight proved that although my risk of severe weather going to bed was not an issue, overnight a rogue storm formed in Mexico and passed over where I was camped.
The storm popped up so there was little time for the weather service to react to the fact that this cell in the picture above had turned severe.
I had lots of vivid lightening and heavy rain with some hail. I think I lucked out in that the storm mostly skirted where I was.
I recommend that all Vandwellers have a NOAA weather radio and a good radar app for tracking storms.
Above are my weather apps I use.
I also like Weatherstreet’s web page giving me a long look ahead to what may be coming my way
Here is the web address for the above
Stay safe - it’s spring and I’ve already had hail twice on my travels home this year.
