Bizarre weather.

It looks more like 3-4 pebbles of hail.

Amarillo?

Isn't that the place JetBlue Flight 191 was diverted to after the pilot went crazy?

3 to 4 feet of hail. Not 3 or 4 pebbles LOL The highway looked like it was snow covered.

There is a photo of a fireman standing next to the hail and it is on the Amarillo, TX weather site. It WAS 4 ft. deep for a fact. I don't know how to post a picture, so you will have to go google US National Weather Service Amarillo.

My wife just copied that photo and put it as her background. It is strange because it is an open field. Most of north Amarillo is flat (I used to live there) so that picture is totally strange. I have lived in North Texas Panhandle and NEVER EVER seen that before. This needs to be looked into further.

We need to keep this kind of info out there ahead of the McDonalds post and the 8yr old who thought Jessica Simpson was hot.

This was 3-4 ft of HAIL. In open areas and when it started to melt it caused a river of that mess. That is why when people see the video they think "oh that is just a raging river". Wrong. That was no river.

Someone needs to get a sample of that stuff to have it analyzed.

My friend who lives in Perryton sent me the picture and link. I really think it might be further North, not just a little North of Amarillo. There is a new picture on their weather site now that shows a hole through the hail and only a small, tiny arroyo underneath after all the water ran off. If you haven't seen the video of the flash flood caused by the hail dam, you should google it too - it does look like a river but it really is just a small, normally dry arroyo.

I am not a Haarptard or anything however i think us GLPers need to investigate for any proof of weather manipulation (Nasa Cloud machines, cloud seeding programs, ect...)in the general location..I have seen the picture and that is one of the most astonishing sights i have ever seen..
