When I first heard the sirens go off in my area, I was expecting a Tornado Warning to be issued, but the sirens were either accidentally set off, or they were sounded off as a precaution.

The southeastern edge of the heaviest weather seems to be right along 121 tonight. We're getting periodic heavy rain (just heard another downpour start a few seconds ago) at Legacy/Coit but a few miles north in Frisco must be practically undrivable right now!
