Scariest moment of our life': Terrified couple flees their RV with two dogs and leaps into a water-filled ditch after a life-threatening tornado touched down near them in Texas

Video posted online shows the moment a couple had to run from their RV to a water-filled ditch to escape a tornado in Texas

At least 14 tornadoes were reported across Texas and Louisiana on Tuesday

The heavy winds tore roofs off of buildings and left three with minor to moderate injuries in Louisiana

Dramatic video shows the moment a terrified couple had to flee their RV with their two dogs as a tornado touched down near their mobile home in Texas.

More than a dozen tornadoes struck down in Texas and Louisiana on Tuesday, leaving windows and roofs blown off buildings, destroying a Houston-area nursing home and injuring three people in a mobile home park in Louisiana.

As of Wednesday morning, nearly 42,000 people throughout the two states were without power.

Winds could be heard howling in Chapman-Peck's video as rain drenched the Country Livin' RV Park in Orange.

He then turns to his wife, Allyson, who draped herself with a blanket inside the RV they travel the country with and tells her: 'Baby come on.'

Chapman-Peck continues to urge her to leave the small mobile home as she grabs their two dogs, Marlee and Macie, by the leash, and leads them out the door.

Together, they run across a field as Allyson covers herself with her blanket to protect herself from the heavy rain until they reach a nearby water-filled ditch.

The couple jumps into the water, dragging their dogs along with them, in a desperate effort to shield themselves from the storm, which the National Weather Service called 'life-threatening.'
