Friday Night - OU Commencement Cancelled in Norman. Storm just damaged...

[mojo1fan]

Storm damaged the YMCA near Max W. Airport just after 5:00pm. Big windows blown in. Power lines are down in Norman. Much hail damage. Tennis balls covering the ground. Again, this is right now, Friday afternoon at 5:53pm.

Oklahoma weather sucks.

Medic007, thank you for what you do.

6:00pm
7,000 homes and businesses without power. Folks are currently stuck in the elevator (no power) of the Norman Hotel, the same hotel that was hit by the 'nader two nights ago.

Stay save everybody.

Has anybody ever wondered why the downtowns of OKC and Tulsa have never been hit with tornados? Maybe I'm wrong, but I have never heard of the skyscraper districts having major damage. It's always the suburbs like Moore and even my home town of Catoosa.

I had major hail damage on my roof and told the roofer to wait until summer before I replace it. I'm glad I did as we have predictions for more hail this weekend.

'Stay 'save' everybody'

Good K2C, a Freudian slip that, if you look at it twice, it works!

Darn, I did it again (spelling) and actually had to go back and edit once for other mistakes. I'll just let it ride.........LOL

Y'alls Channel 6 helicopter guy Clem Kadidlehopper is down here helping out Channel 9. But he doesn't know the area well, so he talks about scary looking clouds and that's about it. I wish he would break out in song.

Yeah,
"Oklahoma where the wind comes sweeping down the plain".

That one?

I was thinking more along the lines of "Bird Bird Bird... Bird is the word. Ba ba ba ba bird bird bird..."

So, the Commencement was cancelled because of storm damage a the YMCA? Seems like a small venue for all those students and family.
