VERY NASTY supercell indeed. > 65 DBZ base reflectivity returns, and VIL's of around 76 Kg/m^2. not to mention a great looking hook.

DANGEROUS tornado-producing suprecell with some extremely large hail also.

the mesocyclone/tornado associated with that suprecell (ASSUMING it stays on its current course) would come VERY VERY VERY close to the OKC metro area. At best passing JUST north of it/
