Prayers for all those folks. Bad bad news.
My folks do a lot of mission work on OK. They left Sat AM to head home.
The folks they left are right in some bad stuff
My folks are in the back end of the top of it up in IA. Just rain for them.
Mtns here due 18” of snow by tomorrow and an inch or two for us.

I’ll take the snow all day every day. The tornadoes. Fuck that.
I'd say there was more damage from hail than the tornadoes. There were quite a few nados, but most were small and all of them moved fast. The biggest ones seemed to hit away from populated areas, with minimal damage done compared to what was predicted. Now the temps are dropping (it went from 80 to 60 in a matter of minutes), the threat is only rain and flooding. OK made out good considering what was expected. One of the weathermen stated it was like May 2013 x5 when predicting the severity of the storms. Glad he was wrong.
Saw it was 39 there this morning. Thought it was chilly even for this time of the year.
33F air temp and just cleaned 3” of very wet and dense snow off my truck.
I like snow and am ready for shorts and flip flops.....

Yeah, they were wrong. Hit the shelter at 4:30 am due to the tornado that "never happens in the early morning". Rain followed and now most low lying roads are shut down with up to 2 feet of water across them (I40 was closed for 2 miles out near El Reno due to water). More tornadoes through central and eastern OK this morning as well. They got this one wrong, thankfully damage was minimal although some homes are destroyed.
Looks like we'll take the rain and wind that coming with this storm. The last thing anyone needs is a damn tornado.
Been rather chilly here lately. Was in the 40s yesterday morning and this morning.

We just missed a chunk of it driving home from Pueblo yesterday. It dropped so much hail the hills were white like it snowed.
A slow waiter, 10-20 minutes of our time wasted, was just enough time to miss the storm, and a fatal head on collision. I hate being first on scene to these things. We were about 20 cars back. The Ambulance left the scene slow with its light on. I said a prayer for the deceased who had taken their last ride on this earth.
and thanked the lord for our slow waiter, and reflected well on leaving him a nice tip anyway.

We might get a freeze tonight. LOL. Planted about 40 tomatoes and 40 peppers and some egg plants and other soft crops a week or two ago. Being how unlikely a frost this late is.
Fucking Al Gore needs to get in here with his global warming bullshit. It's almost fucking June and it's cold as fuck here!
RIGHT?!?!?
This gloom and rain bullshit is killin' my standard Sunny southern California weather patter in May!
But, come on, I thought you knew global warming causes global cooling which causes global warming which causes global cooling.
In the Springs, North side. Just finished shoveling 12" of Global Warming off the walk and driveway
