Video below of what looks like a pretty stout, F3 to F4 funnel cloud, sweeping through the North Central Texas region abuot 100 miles north of where I stand.
I’m in Plano (just north of Dallas) and it was interesting.
We were lucky, Georgia’s little green Mazda got some hail-dings and we had to waste an hour or so lurking in ‘safe’ internal stairwells at work, but otherwise we were ok.
Of course the worst things for me were the obligatory stories on the news: of the family that prayed so the tornado didn’t zap them but got the guys up the street (wh presumably didn’t), and of the woman who, just before the storm, felt she really must go to church and did and so didn’t get Wizard-of-Ozzed when her house was damaged. Prayise the Loerd etc.etc.

Nothing yet to disprove my theory that trailers (truck or homes) are tornado magnets.

I headed for an appointment near there yesterday but turned around and came home.
