Storm has popped up near Norman, OK. Looks like things are going to get active now across a large area.

warning on cell near Norman, OK. Doesn't look all that impressive on radar, but I think what I can get off the web is a few minutes old.

Norman cell casts a nice shadow, however.

I'm glad our UK visitors got some cells in the daytime, just hoping the really big storms stay away from population centers.

Cell near Norman is getting its act together slowly. Storms also firing up to the NE of it, as can be seen as well per the visible satellite image shown above. :uarrow:

Well, the storm appears to be weakening a bit, but it's still got a nice hook to it. Weird that you can still see the sun right behind this storm. Heh.
