I've been following this on twitter and Moore,OK has sustained damage.

Video of Moore tornado.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDNGD3G3FZc

I have seen in social media outlets that NWS missed to warn on the Moore tornado.Is that verified?

This is correct. Most of the damage was likely before the tornado warning was issued.

Note: There was a severe thunderstorm warning in place well beforehand. It was a quick developing tornado.

Also, I spotted at least two television meteorologists (one in Tulsa market, one in OKC market) appear to "declare" their own tornado emergency. I find this very disturbing considering this is now an official product from the NWS that is supposed to carry a big impact when issued.

Photos from Jeff Masters blog. My prayers to those families that were affected.

All I say is wow to this comparison between past tracks and the 2015 one in Moore.

Chasers are on their way to Springfield, MO, where a TORWARN has popped. The Simpsons live there, too

Well it's blowing up in the KS area now.

Tornado on the ground not too far north of Joplin. Lots of warnings right now.

MT @NWSSpringfield: 8:20 pm...Tornado has been reported on the ground near Hwy J and Hwy 126 just NW of Jasper, Missouri. Take cover now!

A 70 / 50 % Tornado watch and the current MD says threat may increase. Astonishingly it is not a MDT area. Something is wrong there
