It was a frightening evening in Canton (located in Van Zandt County) and throughout a lot of Texas. Northern and central Texas has been on edge all day on Wednesday, May 29,2019, with tornado warnings coming and going. Like a reverse lottery, people waited to see where, if anywhere, a tornado might land.

Unfortunately, it appears to have touched down in Canton. Tornadoes were spotted in Kaufman, Rockwall, and Van Zandt Counties but warnings for Dallas and Fort Worth expired earlier in the evening.
Photos emerged showing damage in Canton.
