Storm Prediction Center has issued a tornado watch as shown below.  It appears that the southern extent of a line of storms associated with a potent shortwave that has been tearing through north and central TX/southern OK will pass through the region in the late evening/early morning hours.  There is a decent severe potential associated with this as well as, yes - again - heavy rain.  More to come as we see how the loss of daytime heating affects this approaching line.  From the SPC:   SUMMARY...SQUALL LINE NOW MOVING TOWARD THE TX GULF COASTAL PLAIN
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE GENERALLY E THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...WITH SOME
SOUTHWARD DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE OVER TIME. MORE ISOLATED STORMS MAY
FORM IN THE VERY MOIST LOW-LEVEL FLOW AHEAD OF THE LINE. THE
STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WIND AND POSSIBLY A FEW
TORNADOES...IN ADDITION TO A FEW INSTANCES OF SEVERE HAIL.

My husband just got a warning for flooding, but I didn't...we have the same exact phone service, weird.  Didn't get anything about a tornado though, but I did see it via another forum.  What exactly are we supposed to do about a tornado with no basements?  4951

@allymansfield:
 
Go to an inner room (like a closet). We have one under our stairwell, that I just made some room in for me and the kids. I also have blankets out, phone is on the charger and candles lit. DH took down our umbrellas and some flower pots earlier. Weather Channel is on. We're ready! 4951

@friday1: Of course it's worth talking about, but it doesn't need an alarmist title of MAJOR TORNADO, because it just isn't. Just be truthful, that's all. 4951

@ctl74: Yep, designate ahead of time the room/area where you will go in the event of a tornado warning.  Ideally it will be centered in the home and away from any glass doors and windows. Have a blanket/quilt to cover up with.  With high frequency lightning strikes like this, I usually get the lanterns out and have them on so when the lights pop, we're already lit up.

it's always a kind thing to pass the facts on to the ignorant. after all people can't learn unless someone more knowledgable teaches them the facts.... 4951
