This was at my office at 8:10 just west of Lafayette. Never seen anything like this, it went from daylight and overcast to as dark as night in minutes then the bottom fell out. Seems to have settled down now.

I like just west of Lafayette, and what passed through here this morning was some of the worst weather I've ever driven through. Black as night, very strong winds blowing me around, blinding rain.

Just reading gulfcoastwx Medic, velocities of 131 mph (I assume radar estimate) in that tornado warned cell! Anyone up that way should take cover now!

Chances are the actual surface winds aren't that high, but velocities that high are no joke.
