One particular homeowner had incurred broken windows on a house and a smashed windshield on a vehicle. Elsewhere nearby, hailstones in the Pulliam area were reported to be avocado-sized.
The storm is part of a possible larger-scale outbreak of severe weather that threatens the southern U.S.Sunday through Monday. The risk stretches from Texas to parts of the East Coast and may include strong, long-track tornadoes, widespread damaging winds, large hail and flooding rain.
