Two rounds of severe storms brought large hail, strong winds and heavy rain to much of the Dallas-Fort Worth area Saturday morning.
The first batch of storms rolled out of Parker County and into Tarrant County between 4 and 5 a.m., when NBC 5 Meteorologist began live coverage online and on the NBC DFW app.
The storms raced quickly to the east at 60 mph, producing dime- to quarter-size hail along the way. The storms intensified as they lifted up into Denton and Collin counties. Some viewers sent pictures with hail sizes close to golf balls!

By about 6:30 a.m., a second line of storms began to strengthen in the western counties. This line also intensified and swept across the entire DFW Metroplex between 7-8 a.m. prompting additional warnings for hail and strong winds. The second line, though slightly weaker than the first, pushed east at 60 mph and dropped pea- to quarter-sized hail in Dallas, which had been left unscathed by the earlier line of storms.
The storms moved fast enough to not pose a flooding threat.
