We've had a lot of rain, a little thunder. Grayson county and few others along the Red River have a tornado watch until 8:00 p.m. But I just finished watching the 5:00 news from Sherman. Most of the really harsh stuff was down south of Waco around Groesbeck, where they evidently did have tornados. There's a fairly big storm around Denton and every thing is moving due north. And is ramping down as it gets near the Red River, where we've had cooler air.

So far, so good. Shadow was outside a few minutes ago and got mud and a leaf stuck to his snout. Like an idiot, I cleaned it off before thinking to take a pic.

I am about 50 miles north of Houston, and it is flooding here. The electricity has been out for about an hour and we are under a tornado warning. The BF, kids, dogs and I are all hanging out in the den for now. If the weather gets any worse we'll move to a closet. But for now there is just a lot of rain, I keep telling the dogs that they really don't need to go out for their evening walks right now.

We are getting pounded over in SE Texas right now (think Sabine River). The yard is a running river, and we have a tornado watch till 2 am. The power is doing the blink - a - blink. I really hope we don't loose it all together. The wind is the worst. It has been blowing all day, but the gust here lately are rattling the house.

The girls asked to go out earlier, took one look out the door and wouldn't budge. Here's hoping for a let up in the rain soon so I don't have puddles indoors as well.

Everyone stay safe!

I'm good. Our driveway flooded. It was up to the stoop of our porch! Eeeep! we live at the bottom of a hill too.

Daisy got a bit muddy playing in some GIGANTIC puddles!

We are all good here too. DH works in Burleson and had to run for cover a few times but I don't think any of the tornadoes actually made it to where he was. They were all just south and east of him I believe but the sirens went off both there and here in Fort Worth.

Gina, I thought I saw one heading towards south Arlington....did you get anything? Hopefully it was pretty uneventful there too!

I am on Texas coast just out of Corpus. Got some rough wind here and little rain, but nothing bad yet.
