The tornado heavily damaged a building in the 600 block of Mockingbird Lane, destroying part of one wall and the roof. At least one person was injured and taken to a hospital for treatment.
The storm could be seen beginning to lower and rotate just after 6 p.m, which are two strong signs that a funnel cloud is forming.
The funnel touched down soon after.
Earlier, a tornado from a separate storm cell touched down in Palmer, which is in Ellis County. That storm cell then moved northeast to Seagoville. Local officials said the storm caused significant damage there, but details were not immediately available.
The storm cells developed as part of the larger weather system that caused widespread flash flooding in North Texas earlier Wednesday.
The remains of Tropical Storm Hermine dumped huge amounts of rain across the area. Many roads and buildings flooded. Click here for complete coverage of the flooding.
