The tornado season is here in Oklahoma and several other states. Just had a bad one go through Moore Oklahoma loads of damange. 118 injured (last count). The path came whithin about 15 to 20 miles of us. So lucked out this time. There are other players on this site that are from Ok. Are you all allright.

The Elder is still with you. Would you believe another one hit us last night. Came within a few miles this time. Spent about an hour in the bathroom in the center of the house. Everyone might think about any players from Oklahoma and not time them out for a while in case they were hit. More storms comming today. Think of us.
Peace and good health

I suppose people don't bother building their house out of bricks if they know they're likely to get blown over anyway. Amazing pictures of streets with one side untouched and the other just piles of 'matchsticks' !

Weird Al, happy for you and your family that you were not touched by these tornados. Another one could come today from what I hear. We do have a few othe players that are from Oklahoma. Wonder how they did.
Night before last's tornado hit hard in Jenks (one of the neighboring cities!).
Last night's tornado came within 5 miles of my house and went right through my city!! It was very dangerous because it was not visible because it was wrapped up in sooo much rain!! But, luckily, no damage here!
Originally posted by odieThe storms haven't fired up again here in B.A., but I'm sure they will soon! The sky is very dark and gloomy :'(...I sure hope another tornado doesn't come through because Rooster Day's is tonight (that's B.A.'s annual festival). I really want to go, but it is outside on Main Street 🙁.
I live about 150 miles from OKC and so far, the storms have all died out beofre they got here. BUT, the storms are all firing up again this afternoon.... third day in a row... right in our area. Holding on to my hat!

The tornados were horrible. I live in Tulsa, and the same tornado almost came through here. The sirens went off at least three times. Hey Zach, my mom and I were praying for you all when the storm started rolling through Broken Arrow.We were house sitting again, so we were right by Broken Arrow. But still, two tornadic storms, pretty much affecting the same areas, two nights in a row! That's insane! I've never cared much for Oklahoma weather, but I guess I'm stuck with it. All in all, as Zach said, tornado season is definately here.🙁
Oklahoma weather is something else, dry and lots of wind but as far as tornados go we are not the only state that gets them. We are in what they call Tornado Alley there are several states concerned and they all get hit.
I am glad for all of you that live in Ok. that you and your families did come through this past week safe and sound.
Peace and good health.
