As SMOKEin said above, definitely keep the weather radio handy. Hail storms can be sudden, fierce and devastating this time of year. We had a quick one come through the Dallas area Monday night and one car dealer had over a million dollars in damage. All in all the long range forecast looks generally good though so you should have a good trip.

Also keep your eyes open for Texas State troopers on I-20 if you’re coming that way. The last two weekends they seemed to be out in full force. Although I averaged about 80 on my way to and from Shreveport for the rally I did have to get on the brakes a few times simply by watching the traffic well ahead and taking a cue from their brake lights. Several times sure enough there was the trooper with his radar gun out.

Have fun!

Lubbock sucks. The people suck, the weather sucks... its depressing. Never go there. Never think about going there. Never be friends with anyone from there.

I actually do like Lubbock.

It has some of the finest beaches in the world.

Only problem is it's 500 miles to the water.
