Public Information Statement
National Weather Service Fort Worth TX
839 PM CDT Fri Apr 26 2024

...Preliminary Storm Survey Scheduled Tomorrow...

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:
