Anyone have video of this? Skycam or chasers?
Thats pretty violent rotation that close to the ground with a sizeable debris ball. Doesn't always correlate to extreme damage but that's very impressive.
Heading near to the radar

Looking at the bigger picture, looks like the QLCS has split into two sections. One up near Vance, the other near Oklahoma City, both with a large number of tornado-warned embedded supercells/LEWPs.
That's a incredible signature possibly doing extreme damage with such a strong velocity couplet that close to the radar

KWTV spending waaaaaay too much time on the northern circulations when this is a clearly significant tornado down in a populated area.
Possibly a strong/violent tornado rarely see such intense inflow like that.

Sounds like NWC narrowly avoided a direct hit but they apparently lost power.

Structural damage in Norman, with at least one house on fire.

Well... Storm chaser damage reports should start flooding in rather quickly. Hopefully it's not as bad as radar showed
