At least 2 different tornados McCook and Broken Bow all well south of us.
 
Now talking about snow in the forecast for Monday... ](*,)

Well, at 35 and 47, any 'snow' won't amount to much.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could cross off the forecast and make it go away.

The first week in June has historically been the most tornadically destructive time in my neck of the woods, according to this SPC perspective based on 1982-2011 data (you can step through the weeks using the buttons on the upper right.)  Central Oklahoma looks to be most at risk right now...

Oklahoma City metro schools are closed Monday due to the high threat of severe weather, including tornadoes.  Stillwater schools will be closed, too.  Gee, when I was a kid I don't recall school closed due to the fear it looked like a real bad weather day for thunderstorms.  But for now better safe than sorry.  Hopefully, storms won't get too bad on Monday.

I should probably start another thread here, but if you tornado alley folks wouldn't mind sharing, who here has a storm shelter? After the 1999 EF5 Bridge Creek, OK (where he lived) tornado missed my dad's house by just over a mile, he had an in-ground shelter dug into the yard. It was impressive.

Had one when we lived in town. Not a place I liked visit and only had to twice in 15 years.

Have a basement now.

I don't like this forecast, but definitely prefer it to that one.

No shelter at all where I'm at now. The new place hopefully closing on soon is one of those split level entries as you come in 5 steps down or up, the design was popular in 70s-80s for square footage bang for the buck, guess its better than nothing. There is a closet storage area under the stairwell.

Too close to the street and it looks like there's another house within a half mile.

Another Negative-tilt trough. Thankfully not cold enough to be snow but the rain is relentless. Radar live: https://radar.weather.gov/ridge/lite/N0R/LNX_loop.gif

We actually picked up some nice precip with this one, which was not true of the past 3. Needed the precipitation here unlike many/most surrounding areas.

I see our pressure has just taken an upward trend. Now 29.27"

Flood in Stillwater on Tuesday after 4 to 7+ in. of rain in the area on ground already saturated.  Flooding on Cimarron River 12 miles to the south hampered drainage and caused water from Stillwater Creek to back up.  Report of water going 3 ft. over the spillway at Blackwell Lake 8 miles to the west added to the situation.  Spillway water goes directly into Stillwater Creek.

W. 12th St. underwater and closed.  This is what my friend faced Tuesday morning on the way to work. She detoured.  Her home was several blocks from the flooding.  I later kidded her by saying it never floods on my side of town because we send all the water your way.


The flooding as seen from the other side of W. 12th. Water went a block to the left and got into some houses.  Much of the area shown along 12th was turned into park land after previous floods.  At least several other scenes like this on streets near Stillwater Creek.   Not since 2007 during which time it rained over 60 inches has there been flooding like this:


11th and Knoblock


Water shown almost up to Lakeview Ave. bridge across Boomer Lake.   Earlier, the water was up to the outer lanes, which were closed.


Water over the spillway at Boomer Lake.  Boomer Creek had no trouble handling the water.


View of spillway from top of Boomer Lake Dam.

Oh Frack!!!!

Got roof work to do, metal over shingles.  Forecast for morning, 5AM to Noon is basically 70-75 degree air and 70 degree dewpoint.  Next day also.  And the next.

How many pounds will I sweat off each day trying not to pass out and fall off the roof?
