It's flooding down in Texas , all the telephone lines are down , and my damn helicopter crashed. But seriously we're under tornado warning and it's storming like crazy but we need the rain ,so have to just grin and bear it.

Heard that “freight train” noise just after midnight here in the hill country around Canyon Lake/New Braunfels area… Think it was just long drawn-out thunder, and not a tornado, but man it sure got my attention when the walls and windows started vibrating!

Reports say a twister touched down south of Mason, and 5 inch hail , thank God it missed Buchcanan Dam.I stayed up all night watching the rain and wind , probably have some clean up to do this morning.

Looks like more coming in tonight….

Have been thinking about what I heard last night too, and am pretty convinced it was a tornado, or at least “tornadic activity” or whatever the hell it’s called.

If it was a tornado, it seems that it never touched down, but it was a really distinct sound; different than the normal rolling thunder we get around here. Almost like a helicopter, but 1000 x louder, and you could feel the rapid rise and fall of the air pressure…shook the hell out of our house, and while it’s stick built, it’s all rock and stucco faced. It took a lot of energy to rattle our cages like that!
