Default Raining like whoa in DFW!

Anyone see/hear t-nado yet? I have been hearing the sirens for the last 40 minutes. Nothing yet in Saginaw off north loop 820. Just some hardcore rain.

At about 7:00 P.M. it was coming down hard here. I was going north on 2499 half way between 1171 and 407 at the bottom of the hill doing 45 and the guy infront of me signals to make a left, moves into the turn lane and starts braking. I slowed and moved alittle to the right still in my lane and then there he is on my front left with an on coming car in the left lane. I'm like **** here we go, I let off the gas and went as far right as I could go and this guy in a silver accord shots between me and the oncoming car. He got the passenger side of the car off the side and started sliding. I blipped the gas pedal real quick and went past him. I thought the Z was gone for sure.
