Not at all. The average number of Tornadoes in Oklahoma in March is 80. Until yesterday we had had zero. Moore escaped with just minor wind damage and some torn up cars and trucks.
The weather forecast from the weekend said Wednesday afternoon was prime for severe weather. Tuesday they narrowed it down to just after 4:30 when the storms would hit. At 4:45 that fired up as if on cue and did the storming thing. We got almost 1/4 inch of rain and some minor wind. Lots of morons out driving around looking for a storm or not smart enough to get off the road. We had several DAYS of warnings.
I always feel sorry for the people just passing through or that are from out of town that can't afford a smart phone. My iPhone was telling me about the storms, i can watch the radar and know where I am and where the storms are and were the storms are going. People just to stupid to use a smart phone or people that are technology adverse are just ignorant. I have a tough time feeling sorry for someone that refuses to
try to learn. I do feel sorry for those that can't afford the cost of a smart phone and the data plan with it.
I have been in other states and my iPhone kept informed about potential weather threats in the area near me. I will never be without a smart phone again.
Good Thursday morning folks.
