OKC NEXRAD vs OKC TDWR.

KOCO 5 reports power flashes.

Velocity couplet honestly doesn't seem that impressive anymore. Hopefully my observations are correct.

 

[Clancy]

Looks like it might be cycling. Hoping it clears the city by the time it's done.

What is the timetable for this event to end?

While wait for hopefully a nothing burger, here’s yet another photo of the earlier tornado.

Some power problems happening on News 9's stream.

 

[Taylor Campbell]

I wonder if Kerr at the SPC has figured out why the main hail core is over downtown and the tornado threat is in the south OKC metro. He thought this was coming to the north Oklahoma city metro.

Tip- look at the velocity loop and you can tell the direction of the meso.

SVR issued now to replace the TOR.
