From DMN

Matt Peterson/Editor: We're hearing that Forney High had a close call, but nearby Crosby Elementary may have been hit, along with houses in the area. But Forney ISD has no reports of a campus hit.

Channel 11 had video of the elementary school that was hit...roof gone from large part of the school and widespread damage to the school and surrounding homes and businesses. This is just terrible.

they are fine
she says that it had to have been north forney high not forney high, that it just now started raining near their house...
it appears though that just the elementary school sustained damage and not north forney high school

I could see debris and transformers exploding from my back porch. Thoughts and Prayers for those who were not so lucky.
