Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Gingerbreadman: Anti-cyclonic. It is rare, but not unheard of. Supposedly only 1 or 2% of tornadoes are anti-cyclonic. But I’ve lived in Oklahoma my entire life, have watched thousands of tornado coverage programs on TV, and never once heard of one. Never even heard them mentioned in the Skywarn Spotter training courses. |

Oh, gosh, I thought OP was saying that the storm was rotating clockwise & that's normal for supercells. Now I'm realizing they might have been saying the actual tornado was was rotation clockwise!
BTW, whoever said "Australian tornado" cracked me up. lol |

Just looked at Sulphur, Ok on Google Maps. It is much larger that I thought. If it really got leveled the way people are saying, that is hard to imagine. No words.

Was a restless evening/night but everything went right below me or right above. |

Morris was apparently hit last night as well. I was watching that storm coverage intently, since as it passed thru Okemah it appeared to be headed straight for me but turned east several miles south of here and headed for Morris.
It's somewhat conflicting, I feel blessed that I was spared, but sad that the misery was inflicted on somebody else. |

It's somewhat conflicting, I feel blessed that I was spared, but sad that the misery was inflicted on somebody else. We've had several near misses in the past several years both in Edmond and now here in McClain County. In the last two years Blanchard has been in the direct path at least twice and both times the path has turned at what felt like the last moment to spare us. Last year I watched what would turn into an EF1 spin up directly in front of my house pass half a mile north of me ending up hitting Noble. |

I know what you mean, tornadoes went right above me and right below me and I didn’t get so much as a sprinkle of rain. My wife said this morning it was almost like there was a bubble over our small farm. I’m so happy we made it through unscathed, but I feel terrible for those who were impacted. |
