Jacksboro High School (NW of Fort Worth) just took a direct hit from a tornado about 20 minutes ago. Reports of extreme damage. This would have been right about time school would let out for the day.

Yikes. Likely why others are cancelling after school activities

My brother's girlfriend's family just saw the Decatur one. Went just north of them but they couldn't tell if it was touching down or if it was just a long funnel.

What looked like Jacksboro's gym had the roof torn off, but the steel trusses were still in place.

Just got the warning. I think I hear the sirens in north Fort Worth but it's raining so hard can't tell.

We're in the alliance area and the sky to the south of us looked very very green and I thought there was going to be a tornado siren going off and sure enough there was and we sheltered but now it's over no hail or anything no damage no sign of tornado touchdown by us but it skirted very close to us

Never did get that hail guard.

Storms on us weren't that severe. Sounds like the big cell was a bit more south. Tons of thunder coming out of the south.

I'm guessing a lot of sirens went off when the NWS issued a warning. Warning was a wide area until 7pm that I saw.

Going again in Sachse.

Good to remember that sirens are no longer tornado specific. They turn them on for high winds, hail, and tornadoes.

They still strike fear in me when I hear them. Too much time spent in Wichita Falls I suppose.

Most likely. My house is at the intersection of the three county areas in the NWS alert, so I'm not terribly thrilled with the situation

Watching the news. Saying it's not confirmed, just the clouds are rotating. But one could spin up quickly. Moving NE from Carrollton.

Delkus must not be too concerned. Still has the jacket on.

South of us heading toward BCS has about a dozen tornado warnings. Just crazy.

In the second pic, looks like the clouds are teabagging the house.

Did mine Sunday. Hoping the days rain got it settled before this round comes.

I'm right in the heart of where Delkus is talking about at Parker and Independence. Dark and fast moving clouds. Didn't see any rotation when I stepped outside.

Us too. We went out to look to see exactly where it was, and it was almost on top of us, so we grabbed the dogs and headed to the closet.
