Well both my forcast and Cretes NWS forcast have the words hail and severe in them for tomorrow evening, not something I want to risk driving 150mi home in given the weather we already have had this week so unless something changes drasticly tonight with the forcast I think I am out

I see no mention of hail on cretes or my forecast for tomorrow, just see thunderstorms with 60% chance starting at 4pm, looks like the whole morning/afternoon will be fine.
