Whew as for the storm is came through here at @3:45 - 4:00 Am this morning. It took out some fifty and sixty year old trees that are as big as the hood on my F350 at the trunk.

Not much damage right here at the house, we got very lucky. The town right next to us got clobbered really good. I did not see that there was anyone hurt, yet again another good thing. Some poor old man was crying that he had to cancel the insurance on his home because he had to buy gas for the car. It sucks what people are doing to just survive now. His home was destroyed.

All the schools are closed in Hurst-Euless-Bedford and two are closed in Irving. I hear that some schools are having class with no electricity. I'll bet it gets smoking hot there today unless they get that fixed soon.

A lot of the home builders were hit hard on the homes that are under construction. Many of the new homes are down and many more are "racked" so bad I am not sure they will not have to be taken down.

It was a long night to say the least.
