And as if it wasn't enough, they were also dealing with quite a few devastating tornadoes Sunday. Oklahoma is really going through a tough time right now.

RIP to those who got caught in it, and hoping everyone else affected will get through it without too much pain and fast recovery.

Rip to all the people. Having lived in tornado alley this was a constant fear. I have seen 2 funnel clouds myself!

From a scientific standpoint this storm is very interesting. It's the second time a monster tornado hit the same town. Its sort of similiar to why buffalo new York gets pounded by snow, and Floridia gets hurricanes. They prevailing winds, fronts, and geographic factors are nearly ideal for a massive tornado. I would expect to hear of another one in the future.

Watching CNN and listening to police scanner atm. Tornados on ground in this very same area at this very second. Prayers to the people in Oklahoma who are already badly affected.
