had i not gotten a phone call while driving down I-40 here in oklahoma...i would have driven smack dab into a fatass tornado that has killed 2 people in El Reno.
got off the interstate and heads south then west and parked on top a hill and watched a MASSIVE tornado work it's way over the interstate and plow straight thru where we're working this week (Calumet,OK).
first time i've ever seen YELLOW lightning before.
3 children missing in the area :?

glad you're ok Moby, but the night is young. I see where they have 'em lined up all the way from the Red river to Kansas... and heading northeast straight towards Joplin. My sister lives in Tulsa, she best find a concrete bunker to hole up in.

Glad you're alright, MD.
Gotta check on several Okie friends this morning. Have folks in Chickasha and Norman and OKC.
Chickasha had one drop down 3 miles east of town.
The wife called a few minutes after the Calumet tornado and said there was circulation there in Duncan..luckily
Nothing came of it.
