Heading for central/south OKC. 1/4 mile wide wedge tornado on the ground.

* AT 605 PM CDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE METEOROLOGISTS AND STORM
SPOTTERS WERE TRACKING A LARGE AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TORNADO 6
MILES SOUTHWEST OF EL RENO. DOPPLER RADAR SHOWED THIS TORNADO
MOVING SOUTHEAST AT 20 MPH.

IN ADDITION TO A TORNADO...DANGEROUS AND EXTREMELY LARGE DESTRUCTIVE
HAIL UP TO SOFTBALL SIZE IS EXPECTED WITH THIS STORM.

Edit : Growing in size, 1/2 mile to a mile wide now.

I really hope this isn't a long track. If it is, it's apparently headed for Union City, Mustang, Yukon, Will Rogers World Airport, South OKC, and God forbid if it stays together long enough ... the north side of Moore.

 

[TylerD]

Not good...

 

[maquiladora]

 

[NihonTiger90]

Very, very worried if it goes that path. It'll hit the airport head-on if Google Maps is correct.

 

[Seanspeed]

Damnit, I cant see it.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Tornado emergency for Oklahoma City.

 

[Seanspeed]

Tornado emergency for Oklahoma City.

Good chance it breaks up before that. They say no signs of it lifting, but the radar looks less organized.

EDIT: Aw shit, Weather Channel vehicle rolled.

 

[jchap]

The woman reporter on that stream just said "our windshield isn't working"

 

[maquiladora]

At least 1 mile wide now according to spotters.

Tornado emergency issued for Oklahoma County & OKC.

 

[Seanspeed]

Inflow looks much weaker.

EDIT: Looks like it might be gone for the moment.

Back glass got blown out.

On scene reporter for the weather channel said they just got overtaken by a tornado. He was talking about how their SUV was thrown 200 yards. Absolutely crazy.

Crap, we've been through this three times this week. This one looks pretty bad though.

In the shelter at the church around the corner. Looks pretty bad out there.

[Seanspeed]

If it drops now, its going to be bad. Does seem to be shaping up, but hopefully it takes until after it passes over Oklahoma City.

EDIT: Aw man this might be bad.

EDIT2: I want some visuals! This should be outside of the rain.

EDIT3: There it is. On the ground.
