In a devastating weather event, multiple tornadoes touched down across Southeast Texas, including the Houston area, just after Christmas. The National Weather Service confirmed at least five tornadoes, with one in Houston packing winds of up to 90 mph. Cleanup efforts are underway as residents, including a single mother of six displaced by an EF-1 tornado, begin to assess the damage. Severe storms also caused a mail truck to overturn and inflicted damage on homes. Areas in Liberty County and El Campo were particularly affected, with videos showcasing the destruction left in the wake of the storms. The severe weather risk remains, with forecasts indicating continued threats of thunderstorms across the region.
