well it's 10:25 here and so far so good. Will report back again as I can

Ark I think my parents were watching channel 4 when the bulliten went across saying the there was a touch down around bandera, medina, and something in kerrville. I turned on my NOAA radio and have been keeping up with it. It just reported something about a tornado around crockett, and sutton county (northwest on both) Stay safe and give an update on your area

Glad you're ok and will pray for everyone's safety tonight and tomorrow. We're supposed to get tomorrow what you are getting now. It has been unbelievably windy all day yesterday and today. Supposed to have hail and high winds and strong storms tomorrow. I am going to go drag my veggie seedlings back inside so they dont' get flattened.

Keep safe!

11:26 and all is well. The wind is up and I've been checking my maps as the radio babbles about all this.
Tornado touch down around el dorado at about 10:45, RANCH ROADs 190 and 915 at 10:50

Then another tornado around n.e. of JUNO and S.W. of sonora moving Northeast at about 30 mph. 7 miles south of I10.
Looking on a map it's about 45 - 55 miles Northwest of me. If it stays out that way it's all huge ranches and not much but fence and such should be damaged unless it hits one of them small town.

I'm getting a bit sleepy but I have a tornado warning till 2 am. This little bear wants to go to sleep Gotta stay up though so I can get me, parents, and animals to the ravine if needed
