Multiple tornadoes hitting Broken Arrow oklahoma?
heads up people
Several reported tornadoes pound Oklahoma, Arkansas This image provided by KFOR-TV shows storm clouds moving over Guthrie, Okla., on Thursday. (AP Photo/KFOR-TV) Print By Chuck Caton, The Plain Dealer on May 30, 2013 at 10:45 PM, updated May 30, 2013 at 10:46 PM Severe storms spawned a dozen reported tornadoes in Oklahoma and Arkansas on Thursday, according to Reuters . The storms sent residents scrambling for cover 10 days after a powerful twister killed 24 people in Oklahoma. The National Weather Service confirmed at least one tornado touched down in the Tulsa area, the Associated Press reported. The tornado on Thursday night touched down in the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow. It's not clear how much damage the storm caused as it moved through. Earlier in the day, tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma and Arkansas, injuring at least nine people. In Cushing, Okla., a critical hub for the U.S. oil markets northeast of Oklahoma City, a heavy storm passed through without damaging tanks that store more than 50 million barrels of oil, said Bob Noltensmeyer, Cushing's emergency management director. Stormwatchers told CNN that they observed a small tornado touching down briefly in Cushing and the nearby city of Perkins. A second tornado with the same storm was reported near the rural town of Ripley, but didn't seem to cause significant damage, the Associated Press reported. And about 3,500 people were without power in Texas' Dallas County after the area was hit by storms that were accompanied by 70 mph winds, UPI reported. The storms that hit North Texas Wednesday evening brought down power lines and trees, and blew away sections of a new Hurricane Harbor water ride in Arlington, the Dallas Morning News reported. Quarter-sized hail was also reported in Dallas and Denton counties. Last edited by Mr. Laz; 05-30-2013 at 08:57 PM.. |

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The National Weather Service confirms at least one tornado has touched down in a Tulsa suburb. Meteorologist Pete Snyder says the tornado touched down in Broken Arrow about 8:40 p.m. Thursday and caused "considerable" damage. Snyder said he had not heard of any injuries or fatalities. A woman who answered the phone at the Broken Arrow Police Department also confirmed a tornado and said the department had "no response at this time." Earlier in the day, tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma and Arkansas, injuring at least nine people.

Any one caught near a tornado be sure to take off your belt and tie yourself to something so you don't get whisked away by the twister.

I’ve got Twister in the man cave and this scene cracks me up every time.
Back in ’94, IIRC, a tornado crossed 169 highway and made a direct hit on Nowata, OK high school (school was out, no one was hurt). A couple of weeks later I drove to Tulsa to visit big sis and when I got to the part of 169 the tornado crossed there was about a ¼ mile section that had the top inch or so of pavement skinned off. When I say skinned that’s probably not accurate, it was more likely gravel blasted off. So yea, Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton are going to ride one of those things out in a wood shed by strapping themselves to well pipes. It could happen.

Just watch out for flying cows and you should be fine. Everybody knows tie yourself up with a belt is the best way to keep from being sucked up by a tornado vortex.
