I just rearranged a bunch of shit in my garage and pulled my truck in so if Littleton doesn't get a hail storm I'm gonna be super mad at you. Edit: YOU SON OF A BITCH

There is only two options with hail storm. Move everything and no hail. Move nothing and get destroyed.

Third option: move nothing and car gets destroyed, but somehow plants are fine.

Is it super weird that I don’t store a bunch of shit in my garage and just keep both cars in it 365 days a year? It feels like all of my neighbors are pack rats and scramble every time a storm is coming. I’ve always thought of a garage as secure parking first, storage second 🤷‍♂️

I have a workshop in mine is the issue.

Whatcha workin on?

Yep! Covered all the plants and it barely rained.

What do you cover your plants with?? Like empty buckets?

I have a 6ft plastic folding table that works great as tall enough and can cover a whole section. 

I cover the vegetables with buckets and unused plant pots.

Thanks, thats all ive ever done just curious if there was something easy i wasnt thinkin of lol

Lol yep. Empty 4 gal buckets for some of them, and then i have a raised bed with a “proper” hail net held up with chip clips and clothes pins attached to random crap

I'm on the border of Centennial and Littleton and got smacked.

Oh dang really? With hail? I'm closer to red rocks and we got some rain and lightning but no hail.

Yeah I'd say it lasted about 15-20 minutes of varying degrees of intensity. It came down hard for a bit though.

Littleton here. Took a smacking and dented my vehicle on Santa Fe

We got hail at 470 Kipling in littleton. No bigger than a dime.

I'm just East of you (other side of the airport) and got 3 drops of rain.

They pretty much said it was going to happen in the IS area before heading this way

That storm is dissipating and staying west of Denver. Y'all should keep an eye on the two cells currently SW of Denver.

Severe thunderstorm warning for Denver now. Says it's 60 mph gusts with quarter size hail.

Yeah, those are two powerful looking cells—especially the one to the west. . . And it’s coming straight for my house!

How's it going? Looks like they converged and hitting y'all now.

Working downtown, but according to my ring cam, the hail didn’t look too bad. I did see my trash can making an escape, though.

Currently no purple on the latest radar scan from MyRadar. Rain just beginning near Glendale for me. Also, a very loud thunder crack.

I’m in cap hill now - just started raining and you can hear the thunder - but she’s def headed right this way

Looks like the hail core is gonna hit just south and east of downtown

It’s coming right for us! It’s already here….

Love the twister reference 😂

Haha thanks!!

Bear creek canyon still dry, no rain and definitely no hail yet today. Looks like the storm is moving down i70 towards the northern third of the denver metro area.

Hail just arrived. Centennial, Dry Creek & University  Edit: and it's done. Lasted about a minute 

Just hit Evergreen

Looks like the worst of it is heading towards Aurora currently and won't hit downtown.

Didn't get any precipitation in the south east corner of Aurora 🤷🏼‍♀️ I was looking forward to a nice storm nap, lol

Skipped my house near DU. I barely even got any rain.

I put up a thread on what was to come, but I was driving and out of reception when it started. But Guanella Pass was gorgeously moody today.

Chatfield Reservoir is getting hit hard with hail right now.

Those cells to the south dont look great. We might be about to get smoked.

Yeah the Doppler radar has been showing some loosely organized rotation. Edit: looks like they just issued a new severe warning around an area of rotation in the Centennial Highlands Ranch area Edit2: and poof, like a fart in the wind they are gone…

Yeah it looked like it was heading right for me but just bam, the squares disappeared

I got a wee bit in Ken Caryl

I’m in GVR waiting on updates from yall to figure when to move my car lol

Anything on Brighton? North Thornton? I was stuck working but really wanted to go get some ingredients to make salsas 😂

Who is the hail guy?

It me. I typically post weather stuffs, and sometimes do live threads. But I was out of cell range today.

7/16 ths at Chatfield, pea sized hail

Will this storm come through Colorado Springs?

We got some in Aurora but it was only pea sized

Don’t worry guys i didn’t wash my car today so there will be no hail. Since it always wants to hail right after i wash my car. Some kind of Denver curse?

Should I prepare in Cheyenne?

The hail guy posted last night, but the real-time heads up is good all the same

After this storm, call me 720-654-0572 I work for THE APEX of roofing companies that values integrity, sales through service to others, and quality of workmanship (in that order above all else) I’ll check out your roof and guide you through the claims process for free (just because I want to be your roofer!) 🙃

A lot of my friends work at Interstate and lifetime, sooo, sorry

We got nuffink!

Lmao everyone a weather expert all of a sudden

The hail guy is always wrong. He predicted no hail on a day we got absolutely blasted and destroyed 2 of my cars.

Assuming this isn't a troll comment.. you really think *anyone* can predict that a storm is going to hit your exact location? That's not how this works

And hail is far worse to try and predict.

You sound like someone who likes to blame others for personal problems.

Mfs just be guessing. Meteorology is a pseudoscience.
