Nearly two dozen tornados were reported Friday in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.
At least one of them hit in Powderly, Texas. A tornado whipped across the small community northeast of Dallas in Lamar County at 5:45 p.m. as the atmosphere became prime for rotating supercells.
Packed inside the closet, Brown said he noticed when the wind started to change and blow, and as it hit, it became very loud as glass began to shatter. "We're just trying to sift through. But it's things," Brown said. "I thank God that I have my wife and my children. So that's what's most important. And if it wasn't for him, it could have ended a whole lot differently."Numerous friends and family arrived shortly after the storm to help the Browns with many coming back Saturday to begin to pick up the pieces and start the long road to recovery.
