We have been under a tornado watch since about 1 this afternoon. It has just expired and slid about 5 miles north of us. But that doesn't mean we still can't get hit if a tornado develops. One of the worst tornadoes Wichita Falls ever experienced happened April 10,1979 so we are about due for another one. Here is a link to some info on that tornado.

This is what channel 6 KAUZ is now saying about our weather:
Tonight we're expecting scattered thunderstorms, some of which will be capable of producing large hail. Overnight lows will be in the 60s.
There will be a Serious severe weather threat from north Texas northward to Nebraska on Saturday. Virtually any thunderstorm that develops in the afternoon and evening will be capable of producing a tornado. Stay with Newschannel six for the very latest.
Storms should move east by Sunday.
Weatherbug says a 70% chance of severe storms Saturday night and 50% Sunday during the day and then it is adios amigos. Unless the weatherman is wrong and the system stalls out to the west of us.

Checked our weather when I saw this thread. Good thing I did. Severe thunder storms Sat and Sunday with tornados possible on Saturday here in KC.
My memory has not done well through the years I guess. I was living in Wichita Falls and was there for Terrible Tuesday. I had remembered the death toll being 45 (I was wrong it was 41) and the tornado being 1/2 mile wide which it was almost 1 mile wide. Don;t really want to see anything like that again! Everyone stay safe this weekend and check in when you can! Thanks for the footage Angel.
we are okay for today tomorrow is when we are supposed to get hit with the bad stuff
