With all the storms blowing through, we got off pretty lightly, just a lot of rain, only a couple of small limbs down in the yard, nothing major. How did everyone else make out? Watching the early news here and seems there was a lot of damage around the North Texas area? Hope you all made it through OK.

Woke up at 3:30am - really high winds, window-rattling thunder, heavy rains and no power. Only results were a few lost tree limbs and scattered lawn furniture. However when the power went out my security system went haywire - the extremely loud, annoying siren in our entryway went off and I couldn't get it to stop. After about 20 minutes of that, I sent my son out to the garage for a ladder and a pair of wire cutters. Problem solved (and another one created)

Think most of the big stuff went just north of the 5th wheel...
I was actually on the road to Stephenville yesterday afternoon when it hit; taking the girls golf team down for a practice round. We had a tornado warning at 2:30 am in Stephenville and the hotel's power was knocked out until this morning.
Hope everyone else made it through as well!

The last thing I heard at 3:30 a.m. on the TV was, "there is a tornado warning for Johnson County and specifically Cleburne. The tornado is headed for Southwest Arlington" and then "BAM" the power went out.
Being a resident of Southwest Arlington, it was pretty unnerving. I guess it went around us.
We did have a bunch of boats crash together at work. 80 mph wind.

Lot's of rain, high wind, & penny sized hail. We lost some tree limbs and had some other stuff tossed around at home, but no bad damage. The power was still off when I left for work @ about 7:45. A big tree was blown down on the playground equipment at Brendan's day care. Shingles off, several metal buildings damaged, and a couple of telephone pole snapped off in other parts of Cleburne. Could have been much worse.
