Tornado

The potential for severe weather and some strong storms will be moving back into East Texas Wednesday.

The Piney Woods Apartment Association is now taking donations for victims in BOTH Alto and San Augustine.

Help the first responders and the citizens of San Augustine by not going to look.

San Augustine was ground zero for a tornado late Wednesday night. Get the latest and see videos from the storm.

Severe storms are possible Saturday morning across Deep East Texas

(Explicit language in videos) Scattered storms dotted the East Texas map on Saturday afternoon and evening.  Most of those storms provided brief heavy downpours and quite a few lightning strikes, however, a cell that moved through Polk County produced a short-lived tornado.

Listen to this father keep his kids from panicking as they take shelter in the bathroom.  He video-tapes the possible tornado as it forms over a Lindale neighborhood on Saturday, and it went on to damage several homes.  Would you be this calm?

The baseball program in Van was one of many things that suffered after the May tornado, and the Texas Rangers have chipped in to help.

Today in Lufkin and Nacogdoches we have the chance of heavy rain with embedded thunderstorms, but the situation doesn't appear to be anything like what North Texas saw last night. As many as ten possible tornadoes ripped through areas west of Dallas-Fort Worth Wednesday night, and left 250 people homeless, 100 injured, and 6 dead.  Changes to those numbers could come today as emergency responders

Flipped on the Weather Channel last night to see when the next 3 inches of "partly cloudy" was forecast for.  Instead, I witnessed six men, teamed  in pairs, all in different parts of the country (although every scene looked like Kansas) chasing storms!  Not any storms mind you.  Most specifically - tornadoes!
