THUNDERSTORMS SLAM SAN ANTONIO WINDS NEAR 70 MILES PER HOUR
AND BASEBALL SIZED HAIL
NEIGHBORHOODS ARE BEING HIT
HARD. THIS VIDEO SAYS HEAVY
HAIL AND ROGERS RAN FROM 10 5
EYEWITNESS BRITAIN FARGO AND
WE'RE SEEING DANGEROUS
LIGHTNING AS WELL. THIS SLO MO
VIDEO SHOWS UP BOTH IN MOUNTAIN
GREEN ABOUT 40 MILES WEST OF
KERRVILLE DANGEROUS CONDITIONS
OUT THERE. LET'S GET RIGHT TO
WEATHER CHIEF BILL TAYLOR WHO
IS WATCHING WHERE THESE STORMS
ARE RIGHT NOW. BILL WHAT A
NIGHT DEBORAH. THIS IS
UNBELIEVABLE YOU GO BACK TO
SATURDAY NIGHT. WE'VE DEALT
WITH SEVERE WEATHER EVERY NIGHT
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF LAST
NIGHT BUT THIS NIGHT ALONE HAS
BEEN WIDESPREAD AS FAR AS WHAT
KIND OF THUNDERSTORMS WE'VE
DEALT WITH THE STRONGEST FOR
SURE. AND I CAN GUARANTEE YOU
THE MOST EXTENSIVE DAMAGE WILL
BE SHOWN BY TOMORROW. ONCE WE
GET SUN UP ON OUR THURSDAY
THERE'S GOING TO BE WIDESPREAD
EXTENSIVE DAMAGE EVERYWHERE
FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE ONE REPORT CAME IN FROM
THESE CELLS THAT THEY'VE GOT A
FOOT OF HAIL PILED UP SOUTH OF
KERRVILLE WE'VE GOT WIND GUSTS
REPORTED NEAR 70 MILES PER HOUR
IN TERRELL HILLS WE'VE GOT HAIL
THE SIZE OF NEAR GRAPEFRUIT AT
ROGER'S RANCH IT'S UNBELIEVABLE
WHAT THESE STORMS WERE CAPABLE
OF DOING IN THE CURRENT PICTURE
SHOWING SIGNS OF IMPROVEMENT AS
THE STORMS DROPPED SOUTH INTO
SOUTHERN BEAR COUNTY AND
OSCEOLA COUNTY AND WILSON
COUNTY. THE GOOD NEWS IS
THE TWO SUPER CELLS THAT AT ONE
POINT PRODUCE ROTATION WHEN WE
HAD TWO TORNADO WARNINGS
SIMULTANEOUSLY HAVE NOW MERGED
ACROSS SOUTHERN BEAR COUNTY AND
ARE MOVING INTO NORTHERN OUT OF
SCOTIA AS WELL AS WILSON
COUNTY. THAT MERGE DOESN'T MEAN
THAT THEY'RE GOING TO INTENSIFY
A GREAT DEAL. IN FACT IT'S
SHOWING SIGNS OF WEAKENING AS
THOSE HAIL CORE SHRINKS JUST A
BIT CLOSER VIEW AND YOU GET AN
IDEA OF WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT
AS THIS STORM DRIFTS SOUTH OF
DOWNTOWN. IT'S NOW IMPACTING
ALL FOUR AT TWO EIGHTY ONE AND
DROPPING TO EXTREME SOUTHERN
BEAR COUNTY AND ABOUT TO MOVE
INTO PLEASANTON PETITE FIRST OF
COURSE AND THEN JURGENSEN. SO
EXPECT SOME HAIL AND SOME WIND
SPEEDS OF AT LEAST 60 MILES PER
HOUR BECAUSE THESE ARE STILL
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNINGS
THAT ARE IN EFFECT. HERE'S
THE PROBLEM I'M WATCHING
NORTHWEST AND THE WHOLE COUNTRY
IS STILL VERY ACTIVE. THIS IS A
PRETTY INTENSE THUNDERSTORM
WEST OF BANDERA THAT'S GOING TO
START DROPPING CLOSER TO
HIGHWAY 90 AND HONDO AND YOU
SEE THAT HAIL CORE THAT'S A
GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL FOR SURE
THAT WILL DO SOME DAMAGE. SO IF
YOU'RE IN AND AROUND HONDO AND
ESPECIALLY WEST OF HONDO IN
WESTERN MEDINA COUNTY I WOULD
DEFINITELY PREPARE YOUR VEHICLE
YOUR PROPERTY AND MAKE SURE
THAT YOU'RE STAYING OUT AHEAD
OF THIS STORM. ALL RIGHT. LET'S
TAKE A LOOK AT THE OVERNIGHT
FORECAST AND WE EXPECT TO
CONTINUE 30 PERCENT COVERAGE
UNTIL MIDNIGHT MIDNIGHT IS WHEN
THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH
IS IN EFFECT UNTIL AND THEN A
10 PERCENT CHANCE AS WE START
DRYING OUT HEADING INTO
THURSDAY MORNING. DEBORAH YOU
CAN SEE HAIL COVERING
THE GROUND AS LIGHTNING
FLASHES. THIS VIDEO FROM KENS 5
EYEWITNESS LISA GOLDING IN
KERRVILLE. LOOK AT THAT TAIL ON
THE GROUND. HAIL ALSO COMING
BACK AND YOU GO ACROSS SAN
ANTONIO. THIS VIDEO COMING FROM
MY HOME BUILDERS AND BLANCO.
YOU CAN SEE THE SIDEWALK
FLOODING AS LIGHTNING FLASHES
HERE. AND LOTS OF LIGHTNING IN
NORTH SAN ANTONIO NEAR I CAN
AND CAN'T BULLETS. YOU CAN SEND
US YOUR PHOTOS ANYTIME USING
THE HASHTAG KENS 5 EYEWITNESS.
