STAFF REPORT
The National Weather Service has placed Hays County under a tornado watch until 9 p.m.
The tornado watch affects more than three dozen counties in a band running through the middle of Texas, from the cities of Del Rio and Langrty on the Rio Grande, stretching across the Austin-San Antonio corridor to a band of about 100 miles to the north and south of College Station.
Television news reports indicated three unconfirmed tornado sightings north and west of Austin.
A tornado watch means conditions are favorable for a tornado to form.
