We got some wind...nowhere near 80mph though, and a bunch of rain. So far, my main tv is our only casualty. Not complaining!

I would believe 80mph winds in Abilene this afternoon.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

Baseball tourney in Katy and 20 mph winds making it a little tough on fly balls but nothing like 80.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

Lots of trees down in McKinney. They came out and planted our two new ones this morning that we lost in the lightning strike a couple weeks back. So far so good… looks like they did a good job of staking them down.

Hit us in Mesquite, but nothing approaching 80mph. I think the airport recorded 65mph.

Made it down here west of Del Rio about 3 hrs ago. Temps dropped 15 to 20 degrees in about 30 minutes or less. And it brought a whole bunch of West Texas dust with it.

8:25. It’s upon us. Raining hard and cooling fast. Wind was/is nothing special, at least so far.

Sirens went off, they said Frisco was gonna get very strong winds. I'd guess 30-40. No issues here.
