I am getting it. I pay a lot of attention to weather. And I spent eight years in Oklahoma. The chance of a lot of tornadoes is vastly different than the chance of major tornadoes. There was NOTHING in the NWS watch for the area to raise any particular concern, unlike 1999. And that is one reason why the death toll will be higher with this storm. Please just take it elsewhere.

To be precise, in 1999 there actually was only a slight risk that morning, it was upgraded to Moderate at 11:15AM.

For today there was a moderate, I believe, beginning yesterday or the day before. But that's fairly routine 9 times out of 10 you get a few tornadoes out in some field somewhere.

Here’s a too close for comfort video...in the debrie field with it coming directly toward the guy... Moore OK.... Visual and audio...
