Unfortunately for a specific area in Oklahoma... it seems the sites of the storm were set on that area.... and it appears the most dismal scene is in Lone Grove, OK, where a powerful tornado is reported to have taken 15 lives. 2105 3 WSW EDMOND OKLAHOMA OK

Man, we busted pretty bad yesterday. We were in Wichita Falls for initiation, but for some reason decided not to follow the storms across the river into Oklahoma. The two storms that we let go went on to produce tornadoes. I will have an account up on my blog sometime today with a couple of photos.
