CLEBURNE (1080 KRLD) -  With sunrise, it's likely more damage will be discovered from last night's severe weather.

A line of heavy weather thundered across North Texas from the Red River south through Dallas-Fort Worth and on to the Gulf Coast this morning. The storms included a mix of damaging impacts from large hail and ferocious winds to vivid lightning and drenching rain. Hail the size of quarters was common and in Wichita Falls there were social media pictures showing hail-stones the size of baseballs.

Johnson County Emergency Management reports the massive metal doors on its heavy equipment barn were left twisted and mangled by the winds.

Also in Johnson County, at least one big rig was tumped over on its side by the wind.

Right across the street from that blown over semi trailer, our county Precinct 1 barns took a good hit of wind. All bay doors are gone both sides. @NWSFortWorth #dfwwx pic.twitter.com/ckwtzwyXuX
