Storms leave behind damage across Brazos Valley

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (KBTX) -Storms late Saturday night and early Sunday morning left behind a trail of damage scattered across the Brazos Valley.

Builders have quite the mess on their hands down in College Station where the entire frame of a home under construction was blown down overnight on Amistad Loop in the Midtown area near Rock Prairie Road.

On Ruskin Drive in Bryan, a KBTX viewer sent us photos of a tree that fell and pulled down utility lines.
