ARMSTRONG, Texas – Hurricane Hanna made landfall along the Texas coast this weekend and in addition to damaging buildings and causing excessive flooding, the winds from the hurricane also knocked over an H-E-B semitrailer.
Brandon Clement, owner of WXChasing, captured the moment the truck tipped over and posted the video on social media.
