OK weather - jaybreak - 05-26-2024

Not to steal Linda's thunder (heh) but it looks like you had some crazy weather over yonder in OK last night, Ed. Everything good?

Around the 1:09 mark here:

I watched the storms from my remote location using an NOAA app on my phone. The tornadoes formed and collapsed, the storm cells converged and divided, etc. What happened is that the worst of it split and passed either side of our area. Meanwhile, tornadoes did touch down elsewhere in the state.

Sad coda: The bus route coming home passed the gas station in Denton, TX where so many people were crowded trying to shelter from the tornado. And the tornado scored a direct hit on that building. I couldn’t get a shot of it because the bus was maxed out with passengers.

Oh how terribly sad and devastating.  Prayers for those who were affected......

My brother in IA, near Des Moines, had a small tornado touch down near his house. It didn't do much damage.
