Better check with Jerry Falwell and see who is being punished and why.

In Georgetown, north of Austin. Lots of water and some overturned semi's in Austin. Still hard rain coming down with a second cell on its way.

Looks like Mr. Putin is getting a good introduction to our Texas weather. Welcome to Texas.

Most damage caused by flooding. Tornado sightings are not unusual in Central Texas...no reports of touchdowns.

They could just hire Clinton to come give his Georgetown University speech! He seems to have come to the same conclusion as Falwell -- but the media is not blasting him!

So far all we know of is a couple of overturned 18 wheelers...trees down...some minor damages to businesses. No reports of injuries at this time. My office is located about 9 miles north of downtown...and it's nasty here. They've moved us to the lowest floors. Supposedly the tornadic activity has cleared up, but we remain under a warning. Lots of flooding in the area. More later.

The home of one of our Hays county Representatives has flood water. He was our guest speaker tonight but meeting has been cancelled.

I live downtown Austin. It is almost pitch black right now and waiting for the second series of dangerous storm cells to hit.

No white band on the horizon?
Scared me to death in Midland-Odessa. Spent an hour under a bridge.

Hope y'all are staying well.

What did Putin say to President Bush after spotting a nasty tornado dance across a nearby field? "I know you arranged for us to get a good flavor of what life in Texas is like, but that is just showing off." :)

A Tornado, look for Clinton, when disaster strikes it's party time for the Clintons. Photo Ops and drunken fund raisers for the Dems. More than 6,000 dead in New York and the Clintons are having themselves a blast, one fund raiser after another. I wonder who are the people attending these parties, surely New Yorkers wouldn't attended a party at this time and with the very people that made the attacks possible. THE HYJACKERS FLEW THE PLANES BUT THE CLINTON LAID SET THE COURSE.
