As a Texan, can confirm.
Lightning is common to see flashing by, tornadoes however are very sneaky and can be difficult to find. Is is rare to see this happen. Good thing lighting was nearby to expose it.
Not to burst anyone's bubble but it's photoshopped, the actual photo does include the lighting bolt and tornado, but the oil rig was shopped in and the story is fake. The tornado was photographed in Lake Okeechobee, Florida, not Texas.
