Tornadoes in Oklahoma

Re: Tornadoes in Oklahoma

This is crazy stuff this spring....

Was under a tornado warning last night at Dad's, and according to the TV we were smack in the middle of the projected path. We got ready to hit the cellar. After the F2's hit here back in April I ain't taking none of this shit for granted.

Nothing ever touched down last night that we know of but there was rotation detected, thus the warning.

Went back after the storm passed and looked at the storm cell on TWC.com and it did indeed track directly over the house but it had split in two about a half mile before it got to us.

Stay on your toes, and keep a keen eye skyward........
 
Re: Tornadoes in Oklahoma

I was working south of Wellston and tying to figure out how I was gonna get home (on the other side of the storms). We finally seen an opening and hauled ass home. I know a few that had some damage some lost it all. They are all safe, thank goodness. I've really never be scared of the naders, but then again I'm usually only about 100' away from my fraidy hole. Being an hour+ from the house was kinda freaky.

JCH, glad you're OK !
I've got a good buddy in El Reno. They got hit hard. I haven't heard anything from him.

I got lucky they missed my house in Mustang and I made my crews evac my drilling rig around Kingfisher. It was pretty crazy. bad deal all the way around. I hope they are able to find that Toddler alive.
