WATCH: Strong winds cause damage in San Antonio area

SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio was soaked after storms passed through the area Friday and brought some strong winds with them.

KSAT crew cameras captured the moments before the storms rolled in, but we weren’t the only ones watching the weather.

Viewers sent in their own videos and images of what they saw in their communities.

A video sent to KSAT by viewer Corisa Hernandez showed winds blowing so hard that a traffic light was knocked down.

Hernandez said the video was taken near Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland at West Military Drive and Highway 90.

Also in the Lackland area, the de la Garza Sanchez family sent in a video that showed strong gusts. They captured video of a pool blowing over.

I don’t know what it was, tornado or straight line winds. But it did some damage to my home and property out here in Pleasanton Rd.

This happened at my in-laws house 4 miles west of La Vernia on CR 323. This was the back of his metal building on the west side 200 yards away from where it landed and lost two power line poles.
