Update 6:51AM Monday, (Posted via Laptop from Tulsa, OK):
Up early after a decent sleep, thanks to the lack of forecast thunderstorms in eastern Oklahoma tonight. If the lack of precip continues, that could make today's outbreak setup even more ominous by allowing greater instability to develop. Will be departing sometime late this morning.

Was that Ponca City tornado from the northern cell or from the cell that blew up near Enid that went through Red Rock? I was on the Enid-Red Rock storm.

Jeff, this was from the next cell down from the Medford-Wakita storm. The tornado in the last image was very brief - as the funnel lifted, the ground circulation hit some plowed dirt and raised a debris cloud for about 10 seconds. I'll post some video soon.

Nice catch, congrats!
