We were up at midnight- 1am watching the weather because we had a line of stores with tornadoes headed our way. A tornado quickly developed and went thru a town where I have family. 40 years and 1 day ago, a huge tornado blew thru that same town and blew it away. This one was not nearly as bad. We didn’t end up with anything but a little wind and rain at Okie acres.
