Fox 4 WAPP, I've never seen such a defined hook like that.

Prayers for that area. Been through there many times on the way to Colorado.

It looks like it's been occluding jog northward, definitely scary situation happening near Lockett and moving towards Vernon.

Some storm chasers are noting huge wedge.

Lockett turn could be bad news for Vernon.

Would be wild if it turned so far that it ends up missing Vernon to the west.

If true, seen some pictures, hope everyone is alright. Earlier today in some chaser videos the road where the supercell was piled up with chasing vehicles. Personally, I'd be scared to death, it's not what it used to be anymore and can be a complete circus and in itself a hazard. Also with chasers trying to 'drive' through tornado intercepts, just mind boggling to me.

I’ve yet to really see any good footage from the Lockett tornado last night. Seen a few vids. The size of the tornado was pretty big but the storm damage from what I’ve seen wasn’t much.
