Haven't been driving my runner lately due to the crazy weather. I have had it parked at the shop to steer clear I the hail we have been getting.

Our Tahoe and f150 got "light" hail damage and the Tahoe was estimated at 3000$. Sucks.

I know my runner windshield would have never held up to the hail.

Been dodging hail myself. It is a pain in the rear to fix. Usually hail season seems to be over by the end of June. So far it looks like the country hasn't been in the triple digits like last year.

I know it has been nonstop for the last month. I just got a warning on my phone from AccuWeather.com that we are in a flood warning until Monday morning. I guess the river is getting really high and there is more rain predicted in the next five days so they're worried about flooding.

Then we are predicted to get another thunderstorm tomorrow through Thursday afternoon with hail possible tornadoes again.

Driving me crazy.

I hear you Terry. I just hope this doesn't last very much longer.

If continues my guess is the creek will rise if it does. We got a storm the other day and it blew about 10 green mangos off. Lucky the coconuts didn't come down and a bunch of tree limbs 4" round.

Thus far we keep getting mild rain on and off all day for a few days now and that has me on hold for things I want to do which is outside. I can't wait to get the 86 4runner running that way I can probably get more done.

Supposed to be a chance of hail in the whole part of the midwest the next few days. This part of the season needs to pass.

Looks good. I always get excited seeing another 1000 miles roll over. Not sure why, just do.

Thanks ED. I need to take the top off. I was tempted today, but they are calling for rain this evening. Maybe I'll get frisky and take it off this week!!
