Plano set off their sirens. Darn thing is about 150 yds away from my patio.

[trisham]

Wow. That looks very bad.

[OrangeHoof]

Let’s hope the Dallas Cowboys are safe this time.

Wow, you saw it? That’s too close for comfort!

[txroadkill]

People in Plano take cover

I am due north of that by 2 miles.....Good, it missed me.
Did get some 50 mph winds for a few minutes.

[wvguy]

That storm looks quite angry. Hope all are safe!

[cajungirl]

[ViLaLuz]

Just passed through Fort Worth. Knocked down my glads and lilies.

[Deaf Smith]

It passed Prosper about 20+ minutes ago. Her rain cloud was called E6. Mine was Z9...good rain.

My crop out west got a good rain too.

[GoCards]

Lost my fence, all of it. Im in Frisco. This storm came quickly.

[Professional Engineer]

Had my chance at “spotter in the field”. The lowering was not rotating as it went directly overhead, the winds were another matter.

[mylife]

Its almost here. I dont see any rotation at this point

The atmosphere is hot and laden though. How cold is the front?

[mylife]

Damn! I am looking right at the approach. some good lighting off in the distance but the atmosphere still looks pretty stable.

Disconnecting antennas here and calling the dawg in.

[Professional Engineer]

80 degrees as it passed.

[tbw2]

I work near 190 and Jupiter. I wonder if work is still there.

[mylife]

76 here.

It shouldnt be to eventful, but I am readying to shut down for a little bit

[tbw2]

Bedford, myself. We’ve lost at least one tree, but the roof is still on.
How much hail did you get?

[cajungirl]

I got home yesterday from visiting her,,that is gorgeous gorgeous country. Just so Texas,,I love that state. Everything is ship shape and the roads are good and the wildflowers are spectacular.

[sofaman]

be careful, my FRiend

My Dad's in Plano ... Mom's out in a store in Murphy ...

[Professional Engineer]

The winds are 40-60 at the front. Fences blown down around the neighborhood as I secured.

Power is out, durn garage door won’t open. I gor really wet walking around the house.

[mylife]

I’m hunked down at Home. Hope Mom is in a good store!

I think it is petering out but it hasnt got here yet.

[dfwgator]

I live in Flower Mound, but I am out of town, been talking to my family. It was real scary, a few tiles were blown off our roof, but the worst has past, Thank God.

I’m sure we will find a lot of downed trees around our area.

I have the Dallas Stars to think, since I went to the Dallas News site because I heard Dave Tippett was fired, I saw right away that there were tornado warnings, and I called home and gave them the heads up.

[mylife]

Battle lanterns at the ready!

[sofaman]

She’s in the bathroom! Store has glass windows all around ...

[Professional Engineer]

Blackberry makes a decent flashlight so Bittygirl can see the potty.

[mylife]

Glass windows aint good. But I think its losing power.

Prayers up for yer Mom. Here comes the water.

I am shutting down for a little bit.

[sofaman]

be careful

[Deaf Smith]

The Front is to stay at the Red River and then move back up to make way for the High.

[txroadkill]

Looks like it's all over for the Greater DFW area, but stay alert East Texas FReepers.

[Professional Engineer]

Work should be. Your favorite shade trees may not. Spotters reporting trees up to 18” diameter are down.

[tbw2]

We’ve lost one tree. Will inspect the rest when it’s less wet.

You’re an engineer? I’m an IE by degree, technical writer currently.

[txroadkill]

Lost my fence, all of it

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

I need to replace my fence (HOA even sent me a dirty letter)and then last week a moving van ran a stop sign and hit my neighbor's car and then took out his fence, he couldn't have been happier, he was showing off his new truck over the weekend while I watched his new fence being put in. 5 feet to the left and he would still be driving his old truck and looking at my new fence.

[B-Chan]

Wowee! I just drove right through that mess. I spent the last 90 minutes dodging tree branches blowing across six lanes of traffic, 18-wheelers going wheels-up, and debris flying all around. I also saw a house burning like a bonfire, presumably after taking a lightning hit. It was a bit dicey there for a minute, I’ll admit, but once again Guardian Angel was on the ball, and I’m safe at home now. It was a real white-knuckler there for a few minutes, though!

[Professional Engineer]

Yep. I design buildings.

[mylife]

Looks like it is feeding slowly north and quickly to the east.

I am on the tail end now. Some good lighting strikes but, it was bad here. The cells with wind and hail split around us AGAIN whew..

[mylife]

Passing Greenville now

[sofaman]

it's passed my Mom's area .. she's headed home. Dad's sitting in the dark, although he has his flashlight ... My sister in North Dallas also lost power

Glad you're okay.

[mylife]

But it “Wasnt” bad here.

[mylife]

Tell Mom to pick up batterys! L0L and some fried chicken!
