Holy ....tornado !!!! Reply #3 – February 10, 2009, 09:01:37 PM I'm staying off the phone (in case I get an emergency call).The winds about 10 miles from here are said to up to 200 mph (yes,I said 200).Oklahoma is still a good place to live.Occasional tornadoes,and wicked hot heat (117 degrees and 95% humidity last summer).Aaaaah,home sweet home.It's raining now,and heavy winds.nasty stuff right now.
