Violent storms with 70-80 mile per hour winds raced across Northeast Texas last night just before dusk. Tornado sirens blasted (and anouncements to take cover) for about 30 minutes in Plano as the radar was picking up 'rotation'.
Stacia was up from Houston to pick up the boys. They, including the dog, were in one bathroom closet and Dee and I had one foot in and one foot out. Imagine that!
Our ballpark- elementary school complex across the street has many split oak trees. The neighborhood has trees and fences down. Fortunately for us our 2 old oak trees in front and one large ash in the back are still standing and not on the house! We were also lucky not to lose power. Thousands in the metroplex are without power. So far we havn't heard of any tornadoes that touched down at least in our area.
Still lightning and heavy rains this morning going to work but the winds have subsided.
Have a good day.
