Looks like it's going to pass north of Lawton.
Definitely nasty looking.

Agreed. The velocity signature is getting bad again (redeveloping).

This is how it looked in sw Oklahoma this evening.  The tornado was sometimes behind a rain curtain and was hard to see when they were trying to show it on TV.  So far, tornadoes haven't done much damage, since they have been staying in rural areas.

As of 9pm high winds in Norman.  For here, there is a severe thunderstorm warning in effect until 9:30 pm.  It doesn't look real bad.

No, but taking a severe thunderstorm now.  Heavy rain and gusty wind.  No hail, so far.  The system has become a squall line moving through the state.

That was my first thought, too.

That's a hum-dinger!
