***OKIES in the BYC III ***

[BetsyOK]

Finally reached our daughter, Robin. The tornado hit south of her, but they had baseball sized hail and have no power. I talked briefly with our Emergency Manager (before I reached our daughter), who said there's heavy damage at 177 and highway 412, and Sand Springs is completely without power.

Big storms still headed our way, but I think not expected to be as bad.

Thoughts and prayers for anyone affected by this.

thanks for letting us know Betsy, reports of OKC tornado???

We are getting strong winds and golf ball sized hail now in south Choctaw.

I just got a text from Muesky. Power is out in her neighborhood, near little Axe, and her school, in Moore, was badly damaged.

The tornado in Moore was a small one, but in the same place as the others.

The tornado here hit about a mile from our daughter.

Hope NanaKat is OK. Looked like heavy, heavy storm in Meeker, but didn't hear any indication of tornado there.

'Tis the season, unfortunately.

 

[BetsyOK]

Thank goodness she's OK!

Hope all our Okies are safe tonight

Yes, I want to share it here. I can't quite follow what you've suggested, but I could forward the email to someone who could probably then post it here???

Forward it to me, from that e-mail I sent you yesterday. I'll figure it out.

Hope all our Okies are safe tonight

We had hail here in Skiatook, lots of rain and noise, but we're relatively unscathed. I'm going to HAVE to put another shelter in the chicken yard, because poor Stratus wouldn't go into to the coop until bedtime, since Orlando gives him such a hard time.

Going back to catch up, we are safe...lots of rain...family in Shawnee getting lots of rain.
Heard from Carl Jarvis over by Twin Lakes area...they left the house...but looks like hail but no tornado there.
News reports tornadoes in Moore and near Tulsa....hoping everyone is okay.
