mrmackc Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 The cold front blew thru here very quickly about sundown (Comanche County) temp fell over 20 degrees in an hour and half the storms formed here rapidly grew and moved NE at around 45 mph. We only had fast straight winds until 7:30 when it started raining. We should have rain until around 10:00PM Sunday night when it turns to snow. It is stay at home and put on a big pot of beef stew kind of weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NTXshooter Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Destruction all around us but we are okay. I'm just the other side of the lake from the Garland/Rowlett tornado. We were actually in Missouri last night so we were safe. We do know a couple of people whose homes were badly damaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
