I guess it’s funny hearing people say I need to trust the weather losers when they are constantly wrong.

I’ve been hit by two tornados in the last five years with zero sirens, or zero heads up of a possibility of severe weather in either instance.

These peopel are wrong as much as they are right if not more.

I've heard from multiple people who swear there was one.

Yeah, I am seeing chaser reports indicating that there was at least a brief one.

Definitely sounds like there was at least a brief tornado on I-35E between Forreston and Waxahachie with that earlier storm.

Same cell that’s been circulating?

If you think so, then my only advice is to just stop listening to them. You’ll have to determine your own weather forecasts, but at least you won’t have to deal with someone else’s terrible inaccuracies.

My buddy thought he filmed it but after watching his video all I've concluded is that he filmed it with a potato. Hopefully someone caught it

I think it’s more that you misunderstand how percentages are calculated and warnings are issued. Your area just slipped between cells. Happens where we are all the time with cells forming just north and/or south of us or even splitting and going around us after it passes over Lake Lewisville.
