About to cross I-35. Hope everyone pulls off! That is a busy highway.

That area is suburban/semi-rural.

3 local time and the situation is bucked up, yet.

Yikes. First tornado warning of the day, right on top of OKC.

I'm sitting under a docile thunderstorm here in Garland right now. Thunder, heavy rain...just enough to perk up the grass. Obviously things will begin to ramp up quickly by sunset.

TexasSnowman, has Denison fixed their sirens yet?

#230 Postby **CrazyC83** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:15 pm

Damage to an apartment complex in SW Oklahoma City, with a second storm coming...

#231 Postby **Texas Snowman** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:17 pm

Yes.

Hopefully they will not be needed tonight.

Two tornado strikes in as many months would be a bit much, don't you think?

KOCO: lowering nearly to ground in OKC with second storm

KOCO: Tornado warning now up for Gutherie area

#233 Postby **RL3AO** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:20 pm

Cell in Cado Co, OK (SW of OKC) is looking better. Has a SVR on it.

#234 Postby **CrazyC83** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:20 pm

From Edmond: a house lost most of its wood and shingles on the outside. Sounds like high EF1/low EF2.

#235 Postby **CrazyC83** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:22 pm

Tornado was on the ground for about 10 minutes in Edmond. Looks to be about an EF2 based on photos.

Wow - that whole line is a string a hook echoes.
I wish I had GR3 here at work.
