Tornadoes hit OK City
If you are in the NE Oklahoma and KC area -- HEADS UP!!!! -- Tornado blew away Moore (S of OKC) - again - and there is a report of a VERY large tornado near Osage City KS making a beeline towards Lawrence and the KC area. Stay tuned to the local news for the latest.
DFW area GCers... keep your eyes peeled on the local weather. |
Yep, I'm watching out for any bad weather in the DFW area. Looks like most of the bad stuff is to the north right now.
Sure don't want any replay of the big tornado!! Lizz (PNAM tinydancer) |
Missed my father by a few hundred feet as he was returning to OKC from Norman. Think he was somewhere on I-240.
|
A tornado missed me by about a mile. My fiance and I looked out the window and saw it forming. Scariest frickin' thing I've ever seen. :eek:
|
RockChalk I'm glad it missed you! I HATE tornados cuz I personify them...If I saw one forming near me or my house I think first I'd gasp, then I'd cry, and then I'd be paralized with fear!
|
Amazingly, the two that were in NE Oklahoma didn't cause too much damage. The OKC tornado made its way EXACTLY up I-44 to Tulsa, but died before getting into town.
I was mad because they didn't show Survivor! But the alternative would've been a whole lot worse. |

Wish I could be Gary England and stay dry on the weather set saying how you'll "keep everyone advised". |

According to the Daily Oklahoman (not the best source but you take what you can get) 118 people are counted as injured, 20 critically. |
[hijack...well sorta]
dude... we had tornado warnings in sacramento CALIFORNIA today. CALIFORNIA PEOPLE! and i was watching the news and there were all of these pictures of funnel clouds forming over by Arco Arena and the Airport. And there were these really funny looking clouds on the news that they say only appear in the Great Plains area. all i gotta say is that It's FREAKING MAY! [/hijack] |

AGAIN!!!
Last night another tornado swept through the northern portions of Oke City and suburbs, damaged some airplanes and hangars over at Wiley Post Airport before heading northeast towards Tulsa. ktsnake, you OK??
|
Yeah, I live in NE Edmond but wasn't very close to it. It went East, Northeast from around the Wiley Post area out past Frontier City on I-35.
No deaths, only 5 injuries reported. We may have more today though:D |
For the love of tshirts.... WTF is up with all these tornadoes? We've been having some janked up weather in Metro Detroit but mainly severe thunderstorms. A few days ago a tornado hit about an hour or so north of us. We're supposed to have bad weather tonight, but right now the sky is bright blue on one side, hazy blue on the other. Ugh. But the lightening at 4am made my drive home a lil more exciting.... it was one of the coolest lightening shows I've ever seen.
Everyone in tornado alley, stay safe and obviuosly don't ignore any signals, if there are any. |

For example in 1999 when we had the F5 take out large chunks of Midwest city (that's an actual funnell over a mile wide) there were only 20 deaths. |
