I just learned a few hours ago, that the town my (step)sister lives in, Woodward OK, had a bad tornado this morning about 12:30 AM. I've not been able to talk to my sister, but am not surprised as her husband is the City Manager for Woodward, so I'm sure they are up to their eyeballs in work. Apparently there were 5 people killed and many injured. Someone from my hometown said she saw my sister's husband on the news and he said their home was hit, but they were OK. Another awful thing, apparently they had a storm before the tornado that knocked out power and when they tried to blow the sirens for the tornado, they didn't work. I'm sure there is supposed to be a backup system, so I don't know why/how that failed. I think that could be very very bad for the city of Woodward, especially since there were deaths. I'll have to wait and see if that is really true.
