Re: [IRCA] Tornado radio in OKC

[Mike Sanburn <mikesanburn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thoughts and prayers are with everybody in Moore OK. I watched the live feed on both KWTV 9 and KFOR 4 in Oklahoma City for hours.  The 4 towers (assumed AM 640) were clearly visible and still standing very close to the path of the tornado. I hope there are no more storms today that will hinder rescue and clean up efforts.  ms
