I've been following this.  Here is where I get my info from:  http://www.talkweather.com/forums/index.php?/topic/59336-may-15th-21st-severe-weather-outbreaks/

 

I have an aunt who lives smack dab between the Shawnee tornado and the Carney tornado paths.  Unreal stuff.

 

Supposed to be really active tomorrow as well.

Bad time to read Tommyknockers, Dan.

 

Ditters on the stay safe y'all....er...midwesterners?

A county north of us received over 8" of rain fall in less than 24 hours period.  Flash flood and road washed out in several locations.  This is likely a 50 or 100 rain/flooding event.

Those images of the aftermath from the large Tornado that went through Oklahoma today look pretty bad.

That path was enormous. The destruction is on a massive scale. Hoping that the deaths remain low.

2-miles wide isn't it? That is way scary...hoping for the best for everyone in the effected areas.

It is not a good day to be from Moore, Oklahoma:

 

 

Multiple fatalities from an elementary school as well as others from around town (including a theater).  It was an EF-4 or 5.  Horrendous damage.

Awful, just awful.

Ugh.  Painful. 

 

Good thoughts their way...but I reckon they'll need a lot more help than that.
