Manor residents cleaning up storm damage after confirmed tornado Sunday morning

MANOR, Texas — Editor’s note: The above video aired before the tornado was confirmed by the National Weather Service.
Some Central Texas residents are still cleaning up damage from a round of storms that rolled through Central Texas on Sunday. The National Weather Service confirmed the damage came from an EF-1 tornado in Manor.
Along U.S. 290, roadway signs were flipped upside down. A billboard also fell outside of an Exxon convenience storm. Allison Midkiff said she was waiting tables at Café 290 when it came down.
“When the wind came through I guess it knocked over a billboard over there,” Midkiff said. “The windows had blown out, and the door had been blown in.”
In the ShadowGlen subdivision fences were knocked over. Rodney Espinoza, who lives in the subdivision, said his neighbor’s house had severe roof damage.
“Mother nature is nothing to fool with,” Espinoza said. “I feel sorry for these people.”
