Terrible and dramatic live coverage just now on Ch. 11 as chaser and first responder with camera watched a funnel hit an elementary school, homes and businesses in Forney.
Some completely destroyed, direct hit to Crosby Elementary. Don’t know if kids had been sent home.

It's not a funnel if it's touching down and doing damage, it's a tornado.
And I hope they didn't send those kids home - that's the worst thing you can do is push people into driving around in extremely bad weather if they don't need to be - all it takes is getting caught at a light or in a traffic jam and you'll have parents and kids scrambling for culverts.
It's tornado country, chances are they got the kids into the safest part of the school and hunkered down.

I forgot to add - if they were to try and send all of those kids home, they would be clogging up the streets and making it difficult for paramedics, police, and firefighters to get around. There are enough would-be storm chasers running around and clogging up the streets as it is, hoping to get their videos up on Youtube or whatever.
