Ponca City/Newkirk flooding rains

[Oklahomabassin]

Everybody ok?

 

[Danny Tanner]

Didn't they have a tornado warning yesterday evening, too?

If so, I think traxxis, dennishoddy, or dustingaunder is from Ponca City. Hope you're safe and dry!

 

[Oklahomabassin]

Yeah I am going to give Dennishoddy a call after 8. Dustingaunder lives in Mustang now.

Traxxis is over by Tulsa.

So far everything looks ok here. The creeks are out of the banks but the only rivers that seem to be really rockin are the salt fork and salt creek, might be more.
The tornado warning I think just ended up being a warning, haven't heard anything about one touching down.
I guess we need to get ready for round 3 today.

No damage, tornado was only doppler spotted and the strong part of the storm fizzled out and headed north. We had a crap load of rain and all the small rivers and creeks are flooded especially along old highway 60 and highway 60.

Ok here. We got 2" of rain. Saturday, 3" last night. North Ponca got 8" in spots. Lake Ponca came up over 6' last night. Still coming up too.

Just got back from the lake, it's still spilling over. The kiddie ponds are spewing like brown rapids, it's pretty awesome. Just hope this doesn't affect the fishing too negatively.

 

[dennishoddy]

All the fish from lake Ponca will be in Keystone lake by tomorrow.

I'm fine. Channel 4 said we got 8 to 11 inches. Many streets in town flooded during the storm. We are going to get more tonight they say. I have a 1960 fallout shelter for a hidie hole. I wish it was closer to the house. It's about 50 yds away and down a hill.
