    Ooh nooo!! Having grown up in KS, I can totally relate to this kind of weather. I remember those wall clouds.. the smell of sulfur in the air...the calmness of the wind and then all h*ll broke loose...it seems that there is more and more bad weather there than before. I'm praying for those families that have lost loved ones.. this is just so very sad.

    My son sent me a text yesterday, saying that him, his wife and newborn along with his sister and her two kids were hunkered down in the hall of the maternity ward. I called his Mother in law, she said she talked with them after the storm. I still haven't heard from my daughter as of yet.

    Luckily the Tulsa area had no tornado's but I have to say, it was a very nerve wracking evening. Are all our Sooners okay?

    My DD checked in with only a little hail damage on their vehicles, otherwise everything is fine. She is in OKC.
