The smaller one passed right behind my office on through the parking lot, I called my surveillance crew, they told me they got tape on both passing.

I drove out to view the tape, small one shook the hell out of the cars in casino parking lot,

big one blew the shit out of a lot of trees & property, lots of houses destroyed through it's pathway.

That tornado warning near Seymour is going through almost completely uninhabited land right now. It's crossing the Waggoner ranch. Once it gets near 287 that will change.

Electra, Iowa Park to Wichita Falls at high risk from this tornado.  Hopefully it weakens before it gets to any population centers.  Luckily just plowing through the Big Empty for the time being.

They're saying that the storm is headed more toward Electra (fun fact, Electra was named after the daughter of W.T. Waggoner, owner of the Waggoner ranch) instead of Wichita Falls. The stream I posted may catch it.

A family of five that I knew were killed by that F5 twister. On the 25th anniversary of that storm, Jarrell was hit again by an F1 tornado.
I moved just south of Jarrell, to Sun City, in 2021.
