"Get inside! Get inside!" one man can be heard yelling as people run for shelter while debris flies through the air.

Witnesses say a tornado struck several homes and buildings around 4 p.m. Monday.

Jacksboro High School saw extensive damage to its gymnasium. The whole roof was torn off. 

Jacksboro High Principal Starla Sanders said she was made aware the storm was turning severe just after 3 p.m. So she let the 300 high schoolers who could drive leave early. But the bus riders and all staff were forced to take shelter. 

Just moments after the storm passed, Sanders was also told her roof at her house was gone.

"It just brought tears to my eyes. I have lived here for 15 years, and I love this place. It is hard," she said. "Haven’t seen, but I hear I don’t have a roof on my own house. My kids are safe, and my husband is safe and all the students are safe. That is what is important."
