Well, although the expected tornado outbreak didn't quite pan out, there was, unfortunately, a deadly tornado along the Texas-Mexico border.
An EF-3 tornado struck the town of Eagle Pass, TX and its sister town, Piedras Negras acroos the border in Mexico. 7 died and 81 were injured in Eagle Pass. 3 died and 87 were injured in Piedras Negras.
However, I'd read conflicting reports saying both towns were hit by separate tornadoes.
