Thankfully it is in mostly rural areas but has been passing through some state parks. Hopefully anyone camping out there is taking cover.

Being in Oklahoma is bad enough on a good weather day.

That's terrible. from someone who's been hit by a tornado, it is nothing to joke about. Hopefully, this one will dissipate quickly.

Looks like it’s going to pass about 25 miles to my west. Made a north jog in the last few scans.

Are we sure these are strong?

They look like squall spinners that never amount to anything.

Yea it’s weakened significantly. Lots of storms choking it out. But I bet it was a big one.. that debris ball was big and lasted for awhile. Hopefully nobody was hurt.

One thing for sure is we are going to get 60+ mph winds here pretty soon. Possibly QLCS tornadoes as well.

Yeah, saw a possible debris sig at 10;43 which was the earliest loop I could see. The cell didn’t look intense but they are putting in some work.
