10 tornadoes hit North Texas overnight - 6 dead, dozens injured

Tornadoes hit North Texas; 6 dead, dozens injured

(CNN) -- Rescue crews searched Thursday for seven people missing after overnight tornadoes struck North Texas, killing at least six.
"We're still working to identify people," Hood County Sheriff Roger Deeds told reporters about the fatalities, all of whom were adults.

It was not clear whether the toll would rise. Rescue crews had walked through one subdivision in the city of Granbury "over and over and over again," he said. "I'm confident we haven't left anybody behind, but we're still checking." Granbury is located 40 miles southwest of Fort Worth.

To say the least, lol. It happened years ago, but left a definite reminder. Storms roll in now I am very watchful!

I live in Northeast Texas between Dallas and the Oklahoma Border.

Thank Goodness I live in a low area.  I have seen them "jump my house" to go about 6 miles in closer to DT and demolish a store...skip the next store...then on to another.  It is a very strange feeling to watch how they operate.

The winds go so high where I live that i was sitting on the floor in the front bedroom pushing against the window to keep it from being blown "inside the house"  It went on for about 30 minutes then suddenly stopped...only to hit down in the City of Wylie destroying only one store..then it moved on.

At times, It seems like that monster has a brain to choose what it hits!

When I was 5 yrs old, a tornado hit my Aunt's property in McKinney, TX.  It tore the roof off the house.  

It then moved and picked the entire garage up then put it down on the other side of the house...yet,  ALL the tools hanging on the nails on the garage walls were still hanging there.
