Definitely not a pretty picture here in SE TX.

The tornado is about35 miles East of me in the Eastern suburbs of Houston. I'll post more as/if it becomes available. Where I am in W. Houston it isn't even raining at the moment, but we had almost 2" since midnight at the house.

The curb in front of the apartment complex where my family's at looks like the Nile river.

GarnetCat5 the bad stuff is way off to the East now. However we have to watch for what could be the next round coming in from the West and Southwest this afternoon.

... where the center's on the right...


Oh well, I digress... It's cloudy, windy and rainy up here in beautiful Cypress Texas.

But I just checked the radar and it looks like the bad weather is right outside my backdoor, so to speak. We have a huge expanse of open field outside the campus and it is always amazing to go out and watch the storms moving in from the west.
