The Texas storms have been brutal lately and some of the videos on social media have been incredible. Here is one from Marathon, Texas!   Not only was there so much hail that it looked like a Winter Wonderland, but the temperature dropped around 50 degrees at this time.

The temperature plummeted from 105 degrees to the mid-50s. According to Accuweather, this was a rare weather event called 'hail fog.'  It causes the abundant hail to lower the temperature to the dewpoint. The video is incredible. ABC News reports that snow plows were deployed to help remove the hail.

The Texas Summer is upon us and it is getting HOT! Here are some safety tips from the American Red Cross to keep you safe during the hot Summer months:

You need to drink enough water to prevent heat illness. An average person needs to drink about 3/4 of a gallon of water daily. Everyone’s needs may vary.

  • You can check that you are getting enough water by noting your urine color. Dark yellow may indicate you are not drinking enough.
  • Avoid sugary, caffeinated, and alcoholic drinks.
  • If you are sweating a lot, combine water with snacks or a sports drink to replace the salt and minerals you lose in sweat.
  • Talk to your doctor about how to prepare if you have a medical condition or are taking medicines.
