When I'm camping and a leaf is blowing even a little I'm convinced it's a black bear or some weirdo.

It's why I usually wear ear plugs. Can't worry about something I can't hear.

That's right, just ignore the sounds. They probably just want your food and won't hurt you.

Direct hit to Pilot Point TX just now. A Truck stop with 150 trapped reported as a "mass casualty" situation. And now a huge Tornado going through Claremore OK, a town of 20k.

That TX one is right near where my major professor from grad school lives. I'll have to check in on him tomorrow.

This is going to be rough because it took longer than anticipated for things to really fire and I'm concerned a lot of people stopped paying attention and went to bed.

Yeah when I checked Ryan Hall's live around 7:30 it was pretty quiet. These two going right now are going to very very damaging.

Check around the 7:45 mark where one of the chasers nearly gets caught live in the Claremore tornado.

Huge Tornado after huge Tornado right now.

I don't carry a gun but do have bear spray and it's with this type of thing in mind.

Spooky.

Yeah. I'm at a family thing and it touched down 5 miles to the north of where we're at. I wanted to go after it, but I didn't drive here.

Sirens surprised us, thought it was just going to rain. There was a hook echo too. Said it was over the town where we're building right now.

53 minutes later and it's still going strong and still tornado emergency. They're hoping it will lift soon. Doesn't appear there have been any direct hits.
