Fort Worth was hit by a bad supercell in the mid-1990s, did millions of dollars in damage from the grapefruit-sized hail that pelted about a 5-mile wide band across town. I was on the city of Fort Worth Park Board at the time - the reports that came in said in the parks alone we sustained $13 million in damage.

They come through, you prepare for the worst, but about all you can do is keep your fingers crossed and get in a sheltered part of the house.
