Thunder, lightning, heavy winds, rain and hail

We were warned by the weather stations in San Antonio that we were under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch beginning at 9:00 p.m.  Had to once again go outside to put away anything that might become a projectile.

I wanted to watch the Houston Rockets game but the lightning show followed by thunder and heavy winds made me turn it off and disconnect most everything. With my WiFi turned off found out how slow my cell phone really is without it.

Could not watch TV, could not go online...what is a gal to do?  Take a nap of course.  At first, I was unable to do so but then I fell into a deep sleep.  I could hear the thunder and lightning but it was like I was in a deep trance or heavily sedated.

It was 11:03 p.m. when Paquito snapped me out of my deep sleep state when he started fighting with another cat (a stray) and I had to go outside to yell at him. I do not know why he always picks on this cat while not on other strays when he comes over to eat or drink water.

Turned on the TV and by now the storm was reaching Uvalde with hail and heavy winds. That is when I found out that Ciudad Acuña had taken the brunt of the storm. They had received golf size hail which people were sending pictures of to various San Antonio news outlets.

This morning I woke up early and headed to HEB to get a jump on the crowds and very glad I did. I was home by 9:30 a.m.

There was no damage at mother's house and today turned out to be a beautiful sunny day with a high of 84 much better than the 91 degrees we had yesterday.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
