That was a scarey storm last night. I hit us around midnight. I hate when a storm like that hits at night, you can't see anything.

Craig, I've been through three and two of them I got to experience in vehicles with one being at night stuck in the cab of one of our 20ft van body trucks and I don't care to go through another. The storm hit town so fast there was no warning and the local authorities never issued a watch/warning because the storm was never supposed drop a tornado.

Yep. Those trailers and tractors were all lined up in a parking lot and after the storm hit, looked like dominoes that had been shuffled.

We've been having some bad thunderstorm's the past two night's with about 3 to 4 inches of rain with them. This morning it started at 3am and it's still raining. I'll take the rain and lightning before the tornado's any day. Hope all's well in the Lone Star state. Amazing video's.

We're getting weather pattern's that should be in late May or early June, mid 80's with high humidity. That's what's triggering all these thunderstorm's at night. It's not even hurricane season yet!
