Baseball size hail and a tornado warning for south Denver area.

ETA: tornado in Highlands Ranch

[daisycat]

Hanging out in my car under a bridge in Littleton. It’s crazy rain right now. Maybe I’ll finally get that new roof.

[MrsAxilla]

Tornadoes down here now. We’re out of the path but the hail is insane. Here’s hoping they total out my car

[mrspez07]

In south Lakewood and it just let up. A bit of hail at the house, some larger hail nearby.

[isabel]

Got home with the family right as the hail was starting. My office at Lincoln and 25 is under tornado lockdown.

We’re all hanging out in the basement to be on the safe side, but so far it’s just a lot of water and small hail.

[Poeticxpassion]

Okay here in Littleton. Our car took a lot of damage.

[bunnies]

I'm in Highlands Ranch - okay here!

[isabel]

A coworker in Castle Rock sent this photo earlier. 😳

[cleo29]

holy shit, isabel,. That picture is incredible.

So glad that everyone is safe and ok.

This tornado path is... not very far from me.

Crazy videos in that thread of the clouds too.

[skidunks]

We live very close to the path of the storm, like a mile south. There were uprooted trees everywhere on my way home. DH was working from home and the dogs were hiding under his desk. He sent me a video of the wind, it was crazy. I was at work and I could see rotation in the clouds from my office window and then it started pouring and hailing like crazy. My boss was in the middle of placing a filling and he just kept working so I did too but I kept watching out the window and if I saw an actual tornado I was making a run for the stairs.

Holllllly crap that is terrifying. Not in the area but hoping all who are make it out unscathed.

Thank you!! You too!

just some rain in Commerce City

[doctoranda]

Just lots of rain here in West Lakewood.

[AdaraMarie]

It hailed on my side of town but wasn't too bad. Noticed some hail damage tonight and am crossing my fingers it was from one of the earlier storms since the insurance inspector was here this morning. 🤦‍♀️
I obsessively checked the radar for a while because usually tornado warnings are on this side of town, but it didn't get close.

[egishere]

isabel, that pic is insane! I'm in SE Aurora and we didn't get anything too crazy. The kids and me still went into the basement for about 30 min and turned the news on down there. The storm at midnight the day before was worse.

skidunks, glad you are safe!

Which end did it start at? The children’s hospital?!

[styme46]

I was thinking of you all as I was watching coverage of this storm! Glad everyone came out fairly unscathed! 


isabel, that picture is incredible!

I believe west to east so yes the Children's Hospital.

That path goes a couple blocks from my house. I drove down one of those streets on the path today and there are soooooo many downed trees.

I think skidunks was closest to the worst of it and she’s ok. I’m nearby, but all good here (aside from a damp basement ::sobs:.

[Poeticxpassion]

namasteak, We are fine. Our car is not. It has so many huge divets. We filed a claim with our car insurance.

So glad it was just the car (although I know that is a PITA to deal with)!

noooo was it a leak? Or from the crazy amount of rain?

We’re not sure. We noticed it was damp along one wall before we went to Mexico. It was definitely letting water in (though not a ton) with the storm this week. We have appointments scheduled with a few companies to see what’s going on, but they’re all booked out like crazy. We’re not the only ones dealing with this right now. So we’ll see in mid-July.

Did you have any damage at your house?

Fortunately no! Only a broken tree limb in the backyard. We got lucky!
