TEXAS, USA — Tornadoes, hail and strong winds followed a front that inched its way across parts of Texas Monday.

There were multiple tornadoes spotted across North and Central Texas in areas like Jacksboro, Luling and Round Rock.

Below are photos and videos of some of the storm damage across Texas. 

Southeast Texas

Crockett — about two hours north of Houston — was battered by an EF-2 tornado late Monday, a National Weather Service team confirmed Tuesday.

Drone 11 video showed extensive damage across the Houston County community. There are also reports of injuries, but we don’t know the extent yet. 

We have a crew there and will have live updates on KHOU 11 News at 4, 5 and 6.

In Fort Bend County, the small town of Beasley was hit hard by an EF-1 tornado Tuesday morning. 

A mother and child were injured when their mobile home flipped over. They were taken to an area hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to the FBCSO.

Other homes in Beasley were also damaged and we’ll have live updates on KHOU 11 at 4, 5 and 6 p.m. 

There was also storm damage along Crabb River Road in Fort Bend County. 

And up in Burleson County just south of College Station, the tiny town of Snook was hit by an EF-0 tornado, according to the National Weather Service.

North Texas

Jacksboro, Texas, which is about 60 miles northwest of Fort Worth, suffered storm damage after a possible tornado touched down.

The possible tornado ripped through a high school with kids inside. Fortunately, everyone was reportedly safe.

KVUE even spotted a tornado on its Kalahari Resort camera in Round Rock during a live stream of weather coverage.

South Texas

Hail came down in San Antonio. Residents in that area snapped photos of pea and golf ball-sized hail that fell Monday afternoon. 

Southeast Texas

A confirmed tornado spiraled through Madisonville Monday night, bringing down streams and knocking out the power for dozens of residents. 

KHOU 11 reporter Matt Dougherty went to Madisonville to view the damage and saw several tree limbs in the roads along with damaged buildings. Watch below.

After Madisonville, the KHOU 11 team was able to head to Crockett where a tornado left behind significant damage.

Downed power lines were observed during the early morning hours and cell service seems to be down in the area.

Once the severe weather began to move through the immediate Houston area, street flooding began to pop up all over town, even catching several motorists stranded on camera.

As our crews approached Columbus, they were greeted with a spectacular lightning show.

Conditions deteriorated quickly in west Houston as hail began to fall. Matt Dougherty got this video from the I-10 and Voss area just after 6 a.m.

Immediately after, our cameras caught a school bus navigating high waters on the northwest side of town near 43rd Street.

Some drivers weren’t as lucky with the rising waters, as vehicles were seen stalling out on Oak Forest Drive.
