Surprise Summer Storm

To my surprise, we had an inch of rain last night. The forecast was for scattered showers, but a nasty storm front developed in West Texas very quickly and raced across Fort Worth through Dallas and then hit our area. The winds were strong enough to knock down lots of small branches and a few million leaves, but no damage here. However, we learned this morning that a tornado touched down about 2 miles to our north. Several trees were blown down, but no reports of property damage. That's the 2nd tornado to hit there in the past three months.

At least I won't have to water the lawn for a few days.
