The National Weather Service said it checked the region where the strongest rotation was observed on radar -- in the area of Haynesville and Sherman -- and did not confirm damage from a tornado.

"This does not necessarily mean no tornado occurred, but just that no evidence was found of tornado damage," the National Weather Service said Monday night in a press release.

It noted that the information is preliminary and may change after being reviewed further.
