Thanks for the concern Lady! Knock on wood, where I live, NE of Dallas is usually pretty quiet. We miss a lot of rain but we usually also miss the big hail and wind storms.
Texas likes a big block buster every once in awhile. Years ago a twister hit the Great Plains Life building in Lubbock; single sky scraper in town. It was a 30ish story building but was rectangular; like a city block long but 1/4 block wide. The twister "twisted" the steel and brick building like you'd twist a piece of candy. Last I knew was still unoccupied.
Dallas gets one every once in awhile but does little damage.
Waco which is SW of dallas had a bad one back in '56 as I recall. Went through down town and tore up some things.
West/West Central TX. gets most of them. Granbury is on the east end of that rocky, desolate (but beautiful to the beholder), barren except for a few Mesquite trees (great B-BQ wood) land, and they get whacked occasionally. For a (reported) mile wide tornado to hit that place is really odd, and to have 12 (reported) tornadoes out of one front, multiple little intense cells, is most unusual.
The good news is that I had to plant my hay crop late as Pearl Millet has to have 65F average soil temp. It has been trying to germinate for the past several weeks and not much happening. The WF said we got between 1 and 2" which should get it on it's way. I'm thrilled as had this one not come I was looking at having to re-plant.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
