How are you still able to have electrical power during all this storm activity? We have the slightest breeze here in my neck of the woods in Connecticut, and the damn power goes out.

Most of the electric lines around residential neighborhoods in Edmond are buried. I live about 4 miles north from where the twister crossed I-35. We had 70-75mph northerly winds right after it came to the I-35 and I-44 junction. About 3 minutes later 40-50mph southerly winds for only a minute or two. My 15ft maple tree in the front yard was holding on for dear life!
