Oklahoma tornados

Hope Ok is Ok.

But in before some MAGA genius claims Biden caused this by controlling the weather.

 

This from a friend posted on a different forum:

This morning we were sound asleep at 6:20 and I heard my cell phone squawking and it only does that with a tornado warning, or severe weather. So I went to fetch my phone in my office and check it out. We turned on the TVs to see what was going on. In any severe weather the local TV stations all go to "wall too wall" coverage, No commercials, no breaks, just the weather radar and reports from their storm trackers chasing the the storms.

They said we had 14 minutes before it got to our area.

They were showing a possible rotation coming our way. So I grabbed my bug out bag, as did my wife. We gathered up the two dogs and headed to the shelter. I have a battery operated light that will last for 24 hours, and 110 on an extension cord plugged into the wall for more light. That lights up the shelter, and the little fan comes on. It is small down there, but enough room for us and the two dachshunds both wanted into mamas lap.

We watched the live TV broadcast on my cell phone using the TV app they give away for free. The cell signal is weak in the cellar, so it is not full HD, but still clear. And the voice is clear. They showed it going over a university one mile from us, but no tornado at all. We heard the HEAVY rain that dumped an inch of rain in 15 minutes.

The front passed over us but no spinning winds, or destructive winds. Just the rain.

Once it had passed, we got out of the shelter, that is in the garage, behind my 911 and fed the dogs breakfast and took showers and back to normal.

It is unusual for storms like that for this area. We usually get tornadoes in the afternoon or evening. We kept the shelter open and ready as the afternoon storms will get here this afternoon.
