Unbelievable video of a tornado sending 18 wheelers flying through the air.

I'll take an earthquake any day.

YouTube it. Dallas tornadoes and trailers. Pretty damn cool.

And they weren't 18 wheelers. It was 53' box van trailers getting picked up a couple hundred feet and tossed out like hot wheels. Trailers weigh between 10-15k pounds. But, they are kinda like big sails. Those storms are hitting my house ATM.

There is a trucking company called Schneider. They have orange trailers (biggest trucking company in USA a few years ago). The tornado hit their main terminal in Dallas on US 175.

The tornadoes were all around us during school. We had our students go into duck and cover for almost 2 hours. The tornadoes were about 2 miles from us.

My father in-law got hit by lightning. Well...we think he did. He isn't sure. He had on his steel toed boots and he saw a flash while standing on his porch watching the storm come in. He had temporary blindness, his boots were hot, and his muscles were tight. He said it felt like he had Botox in his face. He wouldn't go to the hospital so I am thinking the lightning hit close to him rather than physically touching his body.

Yeah it was bad for us over at MISD, Every parent in the world was trying to pick their kids up when school got out. Hope your father in law is alright.

I saw this video earlier on the gym TVs and couldn't make out what was flying across the screen. Tractor trailers, box vans, whatever was flying was pretty dam serious. Hope all my friends down in TX are ok. God bless you guys and be safe ✌

We put the parents in a classroom with no windows. We couldn't release our kids and the parents were making the situation worse. They were either stressed out or talking too much about the storm which was causing some issues for our kids.

What do you teach? I could imagine the stress if it was elementary or even 5-8 grade.

4th Grade. We were actually taking a benchmark test preparing for our upcoming state test in less than a month. I'm sure these scores are going to suck.
