Pond Boss Forums Thread Like Summary - Storms

You Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri members. How much work did the latest batch of storms leave you? The ones that went through on 3-2.

Scott, we had very little clean up to do. The ice storm that rolled through in early February wiped out any declining tree or limbs that were covered with ice. We lost oaks, cedars, bradford pears, and around a dozen hackberry's, which was fine with me.

We've been lucky twice this year. Straight line winds were hitting 60-80 mph, with Sherman TX getting baseball sized hail during the 3-2 storm. The DFW heat cap slowed everything down, and we maxed at 34 mph, and 2" of rain. No hail. The tornado's in the first storm missed us by around a mile, and the 3-2 storm tornado was SW of us. Only shingle damage north of us, and not a tremendous amount of damage where the tornado landed.

No damage. Only rain, 2.82 inches of it. Ponds are looking good for spring spawn now. We are predicted to get more big rains next week. Predictions usually change to lesser amounts in that time frame. Ten day forecasts here are extremely wet biased, compared to reality.
