Yes, Oklahoma is part of Tornado alley. After seeing the destruction of Greensburg KS and Joplin MO, I can only imagine the destruction in Oklahoma. I pray for all the people in the area. Thinking of the school children and what a way to end the school year. Tornados are very dangerous even when you know about them on the ground. Closest I have been to one was two city blocks and could not see it for the rain. Had to stop the car as it was raining so hard we could not see the front of the hood. Lucky as there was no hail. If I read right this is the second time for the town.
Well my daughter gets upset at me when we were having the tornado alerts/warnings. I told her the time to worry is when you see it.
