Karla Dorman
Mad storms rolled through here pre-dawn, with intense lightning, gusty winds, some reports of hail, and heavy rainfall. Were under tornado watches at the time. None here, but southeast of us, in Corsicana, some buildings were damaged by an EF1 (winds 90 mph) as the line went through.
Twin sister and I sheltered at local hospital (more walls between storms and us). Lost my roof in the third tornado I've been in, live at the same complex, don't feel so secure.
Did get two videos: the first is the storm as it was approaching; the second, after the main show had passed. It was reported that the storms in southern Tarrant County - where I was - recorded over 1800 flashes. Did capture my first CGs, so happy about that!

As the storms moved down toward the Texas coast, they went Tor warned - there were reports of tornadoes north and south of Houston at one point.
Currently, a break, but more storms expected tonight and through the week, some of which could be severe. Svr season getting off to a bumpy start here in the Southern Plains -
