Well? Anyone get bad damage last night?

It was over Del City High School before the sirens went off. It moved fast. There was some damage at SE 15th and Vickie, power lines I think.

Thank GOD it went around me again. When storm was moving in CH 9 was saying 85 MPH winds. Wind hardly rustled the tree leaves.

yup...saw the 12" tall sweet corn was blown over......will have to stand it up. This happens most every year but doesn't seem to hurt the harvest.

Looks like I won't be getting much okra this summer. I only have 1 row at 8' and about half of the ones up are now broken off. I may try reseeding but won't hold my breath.

It rained some and got some wind, good otherwise. Closest damage to us was about 45 minutes away in Leedey that I've heard so far. As usual, it builds over us and then heads east/northeast.

All north of us. We had some wind, just a sprinkle of rain; nothing serious.

A few small limbs that needed trimmed anyways. Grass is getting high and too wet to mow. A couple sunshine and we may be in trouble.

I just planted mine. You have plenty of time in Oklahoma.

Don't worry much about the okra. Just cut it off at the breaks. Okra is a tough plant, and hard to kill.

The best stand of okra we had when I was a kid was when the cows got into the garden and at the plants to the ground. It grew back twice as tall and loaded to the gills!

Not even rain in Warr Acres, just me the crazy dad, that wouldn't let the kids take their shoes off last night. One of the things learned in the Joplin tornado a few years back (hit a hospital) is that patients rarely have shoes in the hospital and the debris will cut up their feet. Translate that to a household that normally doesn't wear shoes at home and you get why I worried. Kids will drag their feet about putting them on, in an emergency, even teenagers.

Didn’t get any damage from the storms. But I have been dealing with a highway construction subcontractor who has destroyed my front yard. They just arbitrarily decided to drive around in my front yard making canyons.
