What Remains

We had bad weather pass through Dallas-Fort Worth this past Wednesday night that was classified as tornadic weather. By the time the weather hit our area, the rain was coming down in buckets and the wind was so strong we thought our windows were going to blow out. On top of the bad weather, we lost our power at the beginning of this storm. Due to the high winds we went and sat in the laundry room until the storm passed by. I was praying it wasn't a tornado and just high winds. After the worst part of the storm passed by we looked at the windows to see what if anything had happened, but we got a better view the next morning.

This is our backyard the next morning with half of our fence blown over. Three posts were blown out of the ground, however, the post were only 1/2 a foot deep and were not set in concrete. This was the original fence that was thrown together by the home builders so it was very cheaply and poorly done.

Here is another picture of our backyard.
Here is the missing piece to our fence. Hopefully, it didn't hit anyone on its journey past the alleyway, over the fence, through the trees and onto the street. I assume it landed in the middle of the street and someone moved it out of the street and onto the grass.

We moved the pieces in our yard and propped them against the remainder of the fence, however, this unfortunate piece is staying over there.




We had a couple window screens come off and a few others were loose.

Oh noes, the Aggie Gig 'Em sign!! Either the weather did it or some disgruntled UT person decided to be cute.

The only other "damage" we had were the front porch lights (you can see one in this picture in the upper left corner), one was completely upside down and the other was titled to the side.
