How very sad. :( My family left the Vista Ridge JROTC awards ceremony at around 835ish and barely made it home to Avery Ranch before the wind started whirling and the hail started. It was really really scary there for a few minutes driving home. One gust of swirling wind blew my car so much I had to turn into the wind a little to get it back on track. Prayers for the family of all those involved.
