A strong tornado ripped through the town of Perryton, in north Texas, on Thursday, as can be seen in several videos collected by the US media.
Texas authorities reported that the phenomenon left at least 3 people dead and more than 75 injured.
The Fox Weather chain reports that the tornado passed over a trailer park, destroying everything in its path.
At least 21 million people, from Colorado to Kansas, were on alert this Thursday due to complicated weather conditions.
According to ABC7, at least three tornadoes could be seen in Perryton shortly after 5:00 p.m. local time (21:00 GMT).
The Fire Chief confirmed to the chain that at least thirty caravans have been damaged or destroyed.
The phenomenon was captured on video by several users and shared on social networks.
In one of the footage, taken by a person who was inside his vehicle, it is observed how the tornado detaches a roof from one of the premises that was nearby.
You can also see how traffic lights, trees and electrical wiring are moved by the phenomenon.
