Tornado and baseball sized hail passed just north of me

Crappy pics but the clouds were green! About 7 miles west of me, a tornado apparently touched down and took out a grocery store, a storage area and turned a couple semis on their side. I could see debris hundreds of feet in the air as the storm roared into north Arlington.

Ugh, what a day. We've had off an on hail all day long...nothing of good size yet though.

Yeah, I was working when it touched down right outside downtown Fort Worth. My office isn't but a mile from where it hit and the clouds got real dark and started heading for the ground in a hurry. Luckily, my car stays in a parking garage all day and I purposely took the old car today because of the weather forecast. I have seen snow, 80 degree weather, and a tornado all in the course of week. You have to love Texas weather.

Holy shinto! That's some serious stuff there!
