Still on the ground NW of Sanger, tornado warning for Cooke County until 8 p.m.

Has been on the ground for a long time now. Not much in the way of big communities, but it's been on the ground for a half-hour or more.

Rain wrapped.

This looks like it is making a beeline to Valley View (population 757).

Storm developing between Lindsay and Gainesville will be moving into southern Oklahoma in the direction of the WinStar Casino.

Did tornado lift before Valley View? Reports of less intense circulation, no spotter reports in last couple of minutes. What a blessing that would be!
