Ron,
We hit the 90s over the weekend, but Friday was a bit of a scare for me. I took the day off to run some errands and as I was getting back into Lavon, Thunderheads started rolling in fast. I was watching the clouds as I always to when it gets like that and I saw 2 tornadoes start to form within 5 minutes of each other, but they dissipated before touching down. The conditions were right, but the storm was just shy of the strength needed to form tornadoes. The weird part as this was a storm moving north to south and they are very rarely strong enough to produce rotation, let alone a funnel cloud dropping to earth.
