Was at swim practice in West Houston when coached canceled practice at 555. People were (jokingly) giving her **** and by the time we got home the skies had opened up.

I'm in cottage grove. No power and my fences blew down
Easily 75+ mph winds in Timbergrove. Whole neighborhood toast
Here's the tweet somebody posted about. There's your problem

My brothers in Bridgeland. I wouldn't be surprised if a tornado went through. They had a fort that has been completely blown over and a little playhouse that is no longer in their yard.
Holy cow!
Jet black outside in 77077 during the storm. Gnarly winds for a while. Power out and have heard some pretty good arcing power lines/transformers.
Near Gessner and Hammerly. In my backyard. 😳 pic.twitter.com/J94iiKAv09

Gnarly as hell in the Heights. I was on the road when it first started coming through and it was some twister type sht. Green sky and lighting, transformers popping off, branches flying. Ran from the car 10 feet to my front door and came in soaked.
The roof of the Hyatt Regency downtown blew out. Rain and debris pouring down to the lobby. @mattlanza pic.twitter.com/9EJUpmAmBB

Since y'all are discussing the current T-Storms, thought this would be of interest.
Returning to my regular haunt now.

Returning to my regular haunt now.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill
Like standing under a faucet in SETX. I'm never going to be able to mow again. Last few storms rerouted some drainage and all run off is now squarely in my side yard amd has been washing out under my deck. Hope no major issues from the run off.

So....
Damn, we got the three elements for the perfect storm. Cromagnum's warning, wessimo's dramatics, and sea speed's life story
VERY strong tornado signature on velocity. TORNADO WARNING remains in effect Waller and west Harris County. This thing is marching into metro Houston at the height of rush hour. Yikes! #txwx pic.twitter.com/w6v6QU8QUp

Had just made it to my truck at the NW park and ride in cypress. Had to park behind the el pollo loco to hide from the wind. Entire truck was shaking and **** was falling from the sky all around.
Wow. Windows blown out in the CenterPoint, Total Energies towers in downtown Houston.. Maybe others. Seeing trees and other debris on streets, some intersections blocked, traffic lights out. Meanwhile, an @astros game is happening #khou11 @KHOU pic.twitter.com/qsKuZjRrds

Remember that mess that roared down 45 last June and tore the woodlands and spring to bits? Yeah I was in Cairo. Today I'm just outside Calgary.
I left at 3:30 from downtown. Glad I did.
That cell kicked up a tornado in Bellville. Tons of trees and power lines down in town.

Trees uprooted all over the heights.
But...we did not see who else Puddy knows

Lost a 60 year old oak tree
Lost the tops of several trees, both fences in Timbergrove, no power (running gen). No tornado but hella straight line winds.
Oak forest
This unbelievable storm that ripped through downtown tore the side of this bar off. This is Conejo Malo at Travis and Commerce. pic.twitter.com/C4f1KxWVNU

HISD will be closed tomorrow.
Unreinforced multi-wythe masonry, what keeps structural engineers up at night

This is a coworkers neighbor in Garden Oaks. His house got hit by a tree too. Our office in 77007 got danage as well. Heard Delmar stadium was fooked
That looks like Chevron on Smith Street maybe?
