Sunday night’s thunderstorms knocked out power to tens of thousands of people across North Texas, brought winds over 50 miles per hour and dropped 1-3 inches of rain. The storms, while strong, were not quite as intense as some forecasts originally suggested.

Most of Central Texas is under a 2 out of 5 threat for severe storms, according to the Storm Prediction Center.

One of the hardest-hit places was Bonham, where wind and rain caused trees to hit homes and power lines all over town.

FOX Weather Exclusive Storm Tracker Brandon Copic was tracking storms in northwestern Texas on Thursday when he encountered this monster "dust buster" blasting through a field in Morton.

Wind speeds were recorded above hurricane force in several locations including Abilene and in Fisher County near Roby.

More than 40 million Americans are in the threat zone through Saturday night, stretching from Texas to the Carolinas.
