My husband and I live right in the path of all of this in The Colony, Lewisville, area. It was just a little scary! but it has passed over us now. We office in our home and we sent our sons and Grandson home before it started. I got in a little space under the stair area with my pillow and computer.ha. I told my husband to go find his own fraidy hole. ha. Barny

I live 20 miles away from the area in Indiana that was hit by the tornadoes a few weeks ago. The mother who lost her legs protecting her children lived in a solid brick house with a basement. It was totally demolished, nothing was left. The fact that a house like that was destroyed is scary!

My thoughts and prayers to everyone in the DFW area. My heart goes out to the people living in the area.

It hit us here in NE Texas about a hour ago (8:30 pm) Just heavy rain, a lot of thunder and lightning. Texas has been hit hard today.

and no one has basements there to hide in either, do they? I know Houston can't have basements. too close to sea level.
