The National Weather Service office in Fort Worth, TX will conduct a storm survey tomorrow April 27th (and possibly Sunday April 28th if necessary) in relation to the severe thunderstorms that affected the area on the afternoon of April 26th. At least two storm survey teams will be deployed. Potential areas to be investigated are as follows: * Tornado photos and damage reports near China Springs in McLennan County. * A second area of damage and tornado video/photos received from near Tours in McLennan County. This circulation tracked northeastward towards Birome, and eventually into Hill County near the town of Penelope. * A report of damage between Abbott and Bynum in southern Hill County coincident with a radar circulation. * A brief tornado reported near Frost in Navarro County, verified by a TDS on radar imagery. * A report of trees down near Emhouse in Navarro County near a radar indicated circulation. * Reports of a possible tornado occurring near Rice in northern Navarro County. An assessment including results of the survey is expected to be completed and transmitted via a Public Information Statement tomorrow evening. However, a final report may take multiple days to compile if additional surveys are deemed necessary. A major contribution to the success of our severe weather warning program is the receipt of storm reports from all of our customers and partners. If you witnessed or are aware of any storm damage due to high winds or tornadoes, please contact your local emergency management office or send us pictures at: sr-fwd.webmaster@noaa.gov. $$
