Multiple people were killed Wednesday as a spring tornado outbreak devastated parts of North Texas.
At least ten tornadoes hit north Texas killing at least six people on May 15, 2013.
Seven people were missing while about fifty people were injured in Granbury.
According to the National Weather Service, another tornado about a mile wide tore through Cleburne, Texas, about 25 miles southeast of Granbury.
This is a disaster.
I am sad and sorry for the families and friends of the victims.
