History

On May 9, 2006, a storm producing tornadoes swept across Anna, barely missing it. Instead, the tornadoes touched down in neighboring unincorporated Westminster, Texas, destroying many homes and killing 3. During the disaster, Anna along with the American Red Cross opened its high school up as a shelter to the "walking wounded" and anyone who need a place to stay due to the road blockages and damage in that area. The tornadoes could be seen from Anna, and power was knocked out to several homes in the area. Sirens sounded for Anna residents twice, giving people time to take shelter and prepare for the storm. Media and many of the volunteers from around the Dallas/Fort Worth area set up in Anna.
