3 Stomping Grounds Hit In 3 Days; Stormy Night #2 In North Texas; Columbus May See 16th Big Weather Day; Storms Hit Tulsa, OK, Arkansas
A large part of Oklahoma saw severe weather today (story here), including Stillwater, where I spent my first 8 years of life. So, the three different cities I’ve lived in for the longest periods of time have been hit by severe weather in three consecutive days: Fort Gratiot, MI, on Monday (freak tornado); Fort Worth, TX, on Tuesday (86 mph straight-line wind and hail) and Stillwater, OK, today (hail and winds gusting to 80 mph).
Additional strong storms hit North Texas, including Dallas-Fort Worth, tonight, after more than 500,000 people lost power in Tuesday night’s more severe storm — a record number of outages for the area: Story and streaming radar from KXAS-TV, and watches and warnings map.

Storms popped up over eastern Oklahoma and Arkansas this afternoon, and damage has been reported in Tulsa (get cam and radar images in the Tulsa and Little Rock pages)…
