Right now they're saying 7 dead at this point

from the stuff that went through earlier. The big one(so far) started out west and went a bit north of OKC; they're saying the damage track is about a half-mile wide in areas.

Ten years ago, probably would have been worse; twenty, I don't like to think about. The knowledge and equipment has improved so much that people generally get a lot of warning, time to get out or into shelter. Some of the weather weenies around here can be annoying as hell, but when things are actually happening/about to, they're generally pretty good.
