The reporters on the weather channel look stunned.

Hey, this image came out larger than I expected and might slow the thread down for some; can you delete or link to it?

Thank you.

Tornado has been on and off the ground for several hours. Channel 9 was very near the path.

We have had NOTHING here. Tornado watches every night but not a drop of rain. Normally the tornados roar thru here.

Then you're lucky, so far. Hopefully, that will continue for you.

I watched the radar in 1999 and nothing looked like this. You really dodged a bullet with this tornado. Tornado is traveling along the turnpike. Damage on both sides of the turnpike. This thing is huge!

Warning people to get off the turnpike and if traveling from Tulsa turn around and go back.

It must take a brave soul to live in Oklahoma. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims...this looks to be devastating (again).

How are you still able to have electrical power during all this storm activity? We have the slightest breeze here in my neck of the woods in Connecticut, and the damn power goes out.

Seriously, I'm reading all comments from OK FReepers with amazement... I've never been through one of these things. My thoughts and prayers are with you!

It looks to be out of Oklahoma County on the radar and headed toward Stroud on the Turner Turnpike.

They are now reporting injuries.

Tulsa TV 8:

This is a massive supercell storm. Located just west of Luther along turnpike. Moving about 35 MPH.

Heifner and I-35 area--strong smell of natural gas, per stormchaser.

They are telling people to get underground which means this tornado is huge -- they only tell people to get underground when it is a F-4 high scale or F-5. England calling it massive and it is cycling again. Looks like there are three tornadoes all near each other.

I love severe weather....unless people die and homes are damaged of course...

So I am somewhat frustrated that all the weather in KS this year has been east of I-35 and I am to the west. But boy.....I am not frustrated that I have missed out on all the devastation. Yesterday and tonight in OKC....this has got to be record-setting.
