A remarkable, perhaps historic storm system, is currently approaching our forecast area. Impacts of concern through tonight:
- Severe thunderstorm wind gusts (greater than 80 mph) as storms move through west/central/north Oklahoma and parts of western north Texas - Severe (post-frontal) westerly winds gusting to 60 mph following the line of storms - Significant tornadoes and significant hail produced by severe storms as they track across northwest, west, west-central, southwest Oklahoma and portions of western north Texas (snip)...
...Everyone should have a safety plan in place by now, and by this evening:
+ People located in mobile homes should urgently plan to vacate to nearby/permanent structures + Have multiple ways to receive warnings as power outages appear quite possible with damaging winds + Charge digital devices and cell phones + Secure or put away loose items (e.g., trash cans, trampolines, grills, basketball goals)

It looks like the Mighty Mississippi might get the recharge that it needs, at least partially.
***mobile homes ***
We call them “Tornado Magnets.”
Especially so when at night they are open range Black Angus.
