It's going down across OK tonight. There are low clouds everywhere and rotation in a lot of them. One looks like it is coming down in South OK right now.

Dude saved a fuck ton of lives. He was spotting hook echos and getting Grandma in the basement using shitty 1980's radar.

Me and a buddy used to go storm chasing in high school. One thing I really miss about OK is that all their roads, ALL of em, run N-S or E-W in a grid. Almost impossible to get totally lost and it really came in handy when you have a giant purple wall cloud on your left and you know the road you're on isn't going to suddenly veer into it for no good reason. Texas on the other hand... all of our roads were seemingly laid out by a near-sighted, drunken sheep herder.

Well, looks like it is not, in fact, going down across OK tonight. It was looking really bad a half hour ago but now things are mellowing out.

Blech. I've never been near one, but I've still had nightmares about being chased by tornadoes.

I've never seen one but I live near enough to tornado ally that we get tornado warnings and watches a lot this time of year. I've made peace with the fact that if a tornado does come through my neighborhood I'm fucked. The commute home was fine yesterday, but I had to carry my bike over a couple large gravel bars that had washed onto the trail from the parallel creek overnight.

They opened the Bonne Carre spillway again to shunt water from the MS river to the lake and straight to the gulf and bypass New Orleans. They opened it up earlier in the year. Usually it's only opened every 5 years or so, maybe less. First time in my life I've seen it opened more than once. Guess they're trying to releive some pressure of the water in the midwest. The water in Baton Rouge on the MS river is quite a bit lower than it was earlier in the year.

Someone at the National Weather Service needs a clue. 5 tornado warnings within 5 minutes. All 5 were "communities" that don't show on the map and nobody ever knows where the hell they are unless they are related to someone who has lived there for 100 years. Couldn't just sum it up with 5 miles SW of soandso. Getting 5 warnings and 4 of them being about 2 minutes apart on the road seems kind of excessive. To the point of people just turning them off. Kind of like warning at 34th street, now 35th street and another warning on 36th street lol.

Guess for once I'm super lucky. Dad said on the news tonight they said the county had <100 houses with electricity. Woo hoo won one lol. I don't think it even blinked here. Same weather and tornados forecast everyday for the next 5 days. Enough already.
Anyone in the midwest? Seems like everyday I hear the water is backing up more and more.

That used to piss me off when I lived in Kentucky. It'd be a warning if there was any landing in the entire county. County is just way too large for everyone to panic about.

This link has a video sequence where the man filming is caught standing right in the middle of a forming tornado. Lucky son of a bitch did not die from debris impact.

Sorry to disappoint but I live. Not sure if they changed the way they report warnings and watches but seems like a shitload this year. Woke up to a warning on the phone, tornado watch. Nothing here tho. Tornado hit about 30 miles away half way between here and Baton Rouge. Got my favorite western store I've used for 30 years buying boots and hats. I really don't know if it's an uptick on tornados or the way they put the information out. I think they just went thru major repairs after they had a fire from the steak house that's adjacent to the western store. It's about 35 minutes away from here.
