Wow! Quite the light show
over Tulsa tonight. I'm one county due south and watching the lightning out my front window. :wow:

1. I'm sure my nephew's loving it
any chance of tornadoes? If so, he'll be on the road.

My sister's in Jenks. Are they getting the storms?

and Jenks may get it here shortly. We're on the county line and it looks like everything north of us is getting it.

Check it out!

3. Wow

6. I tend to trust the
National Weather Service out of Norman and Tulsa more than anything. I've worked with them when we used to do storm spotting and they are truly on it. I don't know about weather underground.

I think I'm going to shut everything down and head to bed with a book and a radio.

Catch you later! :hi:

8. If you talked to
your sister today, you've found out it was a pretty rowdy night around these parts. Everyone today was so tired from little or no sleep, we were all like the walking dead.

Lots and lots (and lots!) of water across the roads this morning and more to come tomorrow night. Oh, yaaa! :eyes:

Thanx for your good wishes. How's things been with you lately?
