    Here's the run down..

    If you are anywhere on the 35 between the Texas line and OKC, anywhere on the 44 between Lawton and Tulsa or on the 40 between OKC and the Arkansas line, you are potentially in harms way!!! This is a DANGER ZONE. Please seek shelter NOW!! Be ready and know where to go when the storms approach!!

    That is horrible news. We try to keep up with the watches & warning but they happen so fast and sometimes they are not posted in the text form right away. After awhile you post so many that you forget which ones you have posted!

    I just got this picture from a friend of mine that is right in this area. The tornado crossed just a couple miles in front of him. Here it is.

    Ghostrider1960 is in Sapulpa right now. He stopped for fuel at the I-40 exit 108 Love's. Wind going crazy, sirens going off PA hollering "GET INSIDE NOW!!" And 4-wheelers pulling in, getting out of their cars with cameras and watching west. I'm hearing no more Love's and 5 deaths. People are idiots.
