Severe thunderstorms produced golf ball-sized hail in Del Rio and the Bracketville area of Texas, following the ritual shaking of the "No Agenda Rain Stick." Residents in Austin utilized moving blankets to protect vehicles parked outside from denting and window damage. The frequency of these storms in Southeast Texas has made the use of padded blankets a common local practice for car protection.
