Wichita Tornado Situation

Courtesy of Dick McGowan, this is the tornado that did damage just southwest of Wichita that was moving northeast toward the city. As far as we know there was only minor damage in the city from a tornado (hail may be a different story). There are 1,150 homes and businesses without power.

It possible the tornadic thunderstorm became so choked with rain that the tornado could not say on the ground because it was undercut by the "rear flank downdraft." I'll explain when I get my tornado photos on the blog this evening.

There is a serious tornado risk in the OKC area in progress. Tornado indicated between Edmond and Arcadia.

Also, possible tornado near South Haven getting ready to cross Kansas Turnpike.
