Jacksboro High School received extensive damage to its roof. A school spokesperson confirmed there were no injuries to students or staff.

It’s crazy all around right now.

Thanks for the ping! Prayers for all in storm path. My area in West Texas is dodging it.

Right on time and typical of this time of year. I wanted to get that in before the climate "scientists" try to spin this into their handwringing "World is going to end" climate change narrative.

I graduated from high school about 100 NW of there and went to college at OU in Norman...been there done that.

Also keep in mind that before Doppler Radar it is very likely that dozens if not hundreds of tornadoes were missed that touche down in rural areas that went unnoticed and cause no damage.

Stay safe Allegra.

Thanks! So far, so good here. Are you in the region?

[crusty old prospector]

Dang. Eastbound and down. Headed my way later.

Please take cover - great post by our resident meteorologists following the storms.

I hope your son is monitoring it. I looks like the DFW area is pretty active right now.

And I hope y’all in Alabama don’t get it like this. I know it can get bad there, too.

Very true. When I was at OU (early 70's) we would volunteer to be weather spotters because radar detection was centered on the Oklahoma City metro area.

We would head west on I-40 towards El Reno or down towards Chickasha and Lawton on the H E Baily. Seems like all the threatening storms formed there then moved towards OKC...after going through Moore.

Thanks!

I live in Northeast Fort Worth and the local weather guy was hyperventilating over a potential tornado. Had all my important papers, my computer, and cell phone and hunkered down in the laundry room. First, however, I had to call my daughter and tell her I loved her because we had a disagreement about politics last night and we both hung up in a huff. Will we stop arguing about politics? I doubt it.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Bless your heart. 😟 Hope y’all are OK.

Got some decent pics of a double rainbow about 30 minutes ago.
