The weather channel was showing an out of control fire in Oklahoma City. It lit up the whole horizon.

I’ve been watching that all night on TV, local stations are covering the fires rather than scheduled programming. Fires on the east and southeast side of OKC are terrible. As of 10:00pm there are many fires still out of control in residential areas. Residents evacuated hours ago but the fires, driven by very high winds, are more than the local fire departments can fight. Its going to be a long night here in OKC.

The entirity of Choctaw, and east Midwest City, Ok. is burning. Over 100 homes gone. This will burn all night as they cannot put it out as winds are up to 40 mph, going to 60 with Tornado's on the way.

These homes are in mostly heavily wooded neighborhoods, so sad to watch this, as I have many friends out there and no word yet.

They are going to shelters for the night, set up at the community centers in Midwest City. Then I am sure their Insurance Co's will put them in a Hotel. This is the worst I have ever seen in Okla. News said it is worse in way of damage than the May 4th tornado.

Gainesville, Tx.areas was on fire, Arbuckle Mts., Ok. on fire, Purcell, Ok. on fire, Sparks, Chandler, Lindsay Ok. on fire. Pray it rains soon.
