Four dead, one million without power after massive storms slam Houston

Rough stuff out of Houston overnight:

A line of severe thunderstorms swept through southeastern Texas and Louisiana on Thursday, blasting the Houston area with ferocious winds that left at least four dead and more than 1 million power customers without electricity.

Winds reported as high as 78 mph toppled trees, blew out windows of high-rise buildings and caused transmission towers holding power lines to crumble. The Harris County Sheriff's Office and National Weather Service encouraged everyone to stay off the roads.

Stay safe, Houston, that was a bad one.
