The calm before the storm didn't last long - back to extremely strong winds and twirling rain. It's difficult to tell which direction the wind and rain is coming from.

Hwy 107 in Edinburg near the courthouse is closed down - however there is one trial still going on - everyone else has left the building - I'm wondering if that is the John Rubio trial? They sure are wanting to get that one over with. I wonder if the Judge who is still holding court realizes "HEY There is a HURRICANE COMING DUDE!" If I were a juror - I'd probably not be a happy camper for him keeping me there. Just saying...

More toronados are touching down - slightly here and there.
