An explosion may have occurred in North Texas that has not made the news! This is on top of the other two confirmed large gas explosions which happened tonight in Oklahoma and Arkansas back to back.
Certainly a large heat signature of some sort in North Texas is being detected (just as big as the Oklahoma explosion but about 1 hour BEFORE).
Extreme weather, including heavy hail and flooding, has paralyzed parts of the Panhandle, shutting down highways.
According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), Highway 136 at Fritch was closed in Hutchinson County because of flooding for a short amount of time. It has since reopened.
Highway 287, which was previously at a complete standstill, has resumed traffic. TxDOT said traffic is moving on the northbound lanes and the southbound lanes will likely remain closed through the night. The road must first be cleared and then damage assessed. Southbound traffic is being held in Dumas.
Three to four feet of hail was reported near the Canadian River. Watch the video above from Storm Search 7 Storm Chaser Doug Blach.
