National Weather Service in Tulsa reporting Denning is destroyed.

Going to end up as another EF-3+ tornado IMO. You can just tell by what was observed on RADAR and how the mets on TV get somewhat a loss for words.

It should be noted that one of the mets you hear, Joe, was born and raised in Altus and his family still lives there. Bad time for him.

Normally I would be skeptical of such early reports but the MIC reporting Denning appears "destroyed" is not good...given the time...fear we have more people that have just died...will have to hope that maybe this won't be as bad as it sounds...

My heart is breaking over the plight of hard working people in Denning, probably asleep in their homes tonight. This is just horrific.

In my subjective experience, generally when you get immediate reports of severe/extreme damage within 10 minutes or less of the tornado actually occurring, it usually means it's really bad. Likewise for injuries/fatalities...the quicker you hear news, the worse it is.
