everyone ok?
« on: July 07, 2012 - 09:06:34 PM »
We left the show field around 6 today and ended up seaking shelter for an hour or so at a bank drive thru....lots of red on the radar and they were calling for hail....

By the time we got back to our hotel in shippensburg, it was 8 or so,  so we didnt go back out to arrogas like we planned.....seemed like thered was moving that way too.....hoping no one go caught in bad stuff..

After the damage we got a month ago and then our family having major hail damage just a few miles from us last week we are running scarer every time they call for severe weathe....it is going to be a loooooooooong summer! Lol

On the way home we ran into a bad storm up in NY state. The trees were almost 90 degrees  with the wind and big rain drops and lots of rain! Sheesh hail sure would suck at a car show!  :eek4:
