Roughly 20,000 people in North Texas were still without power Saturday morning after severe storms swept the region overnight.
Most of those without power are in Tarrant County, according to Oncor’s outage map. About 2,800 Oncor customers in Dallas County did not have power, while 18,000 in Tarrant County remained without power as of 8:30 a.m.
The power outages come after the Fort Worth office of the National Weather Service issued several severe thunderstorm warnings Friday night. A tornado warning was also issued in Parker County, and the Weather Service said it was looking into reports of a possible tornado in Fort Worth.
A statement from the Weather Service said wind damage was reported during the storm, and it is unknown yet if a tornado occurred. The Weather Service asked on social media for anyone affected by the storm to send in damage reports.
