Not during a weather scare, but some fuckhead parked in our covered parking when we lived off Great Hills trail in a complex with shit parking.  We were coming back from a trip and had heaps of shit to unload, so we were rightfully pissed (at the time).  Wife wrote a sternly worded letter and gave em what for. 

Turned out, the person who parked there was a family member of a person living in one of the units that had rushed over after the individual took a lethal dose of something in a suicide attempt.  Car owner hurriedly parked in the only spot they could so they could rush in and help save their life, then left with them in an ambulance so was with them at the hospital and couldnt move the car obviously.  They apologized but my wife was nearly in tears for having written the note.  

I might have done a few poorly thought out reactions as a teenager. Dammit I love this reply.

I would not do that now. I would be annoyed, but it's just a car.

My brother is like, “Hey Nicole let’s go drive around and try to intercept a tornado!” Ummmmm…tempting…

Let me guess, your adventures are gonna take you to Rainey Street this evening to warn out of town visitors of pending water-based dangers?    

If you do venture out with your brother, be careful.  I don't think it'll be that much of a significant weather event but just coupled with Friday traffic and general springtime dumbassery in Austin, could get fucking weird here in a hot minute.

That line heading in to the west of Austin will be a good test for the Forcefield #nojinx

Yes it is.  I can see the clearing behind it. 
 

[Nicole44 22079]

It feels like it’s pitch black legit…now. Still all the sudden and big winds and cool air…yikes looks like hail is coming soon. My mom just got back from Georgetown where it appears the worst of it is. And Granger I guess.

I'm a little bit south of you, but still coming down pretty good. Got some pea sized hail, but it didn't last that long. 

 

[Nicole44 22079]

Looks like marble size but not going out there until this shit is past me.

Yeah like a few streets over. Probably half a mile (maybe less) from me.

[Deej 76983]

Windy as hell, but those clouds are sitting perfectly still.
