Not again...now the SW side of OKey City will possibly feel the rage of another tornado.

The Today Show this morning had a graphic of the 1999 and 2003 Okey City tornadoes, and the paths were almost exactly the same!!! It was eerie!

The activity yesterday occurred on the south side of Oklahoma City, in the city of Moore... most of this cell as of now is closer to downtown.

The frontal system has been blocked by the upper level high pressure system over the Gulf of Mexico, which I indicated in another thread earlier this evening is weakening and going to move west-sourthwestward and give Florida a chance of rainfall next week.
