There have been 10 acknowledged tornadoes that touched down in Northern Texas last Sunday the 20th with winds up to 140 mph reported by AP News.
Areas affected include Richardson, Rockwell, Rowlett, Midlothian, Kaufman County, Ferris and Willis Point.
Most of the touchdowns had wind speeds below 100 mph, but the Garland storm hit 135 mph and the Richardson storm hit 140 mph according to the National Weather Service.
The longest path length was in Richardson with almost 16 miles of landfall. At points, the paths were over a quarter-mile wide.
No deaths have been reported from the storms in Dallas, but four total casualties have been reported in Arkansas and Oklahoma. Most of the touchdown areas in Dallas were in lower-occupied areas.
Storms also reached western Tennessee with a confirmed EF1 tornado on the ground in Memphis taking out multiple trees, but no deaths were reported. The storm was on the ground for two minutes and also hit a car dealership in its path.
Tornados are extremely uncommon in late October, with most occurrences taking place in August and September. These storms taking place after September caused residents in all the affected areas to be unprepared.
