There is a report of a massive line of thunderstorms stretching from Witchita Falls, Texas, through Lawton, Oklahoma, Oklahoma City, Edmond, and Stillwater which has brought in a considerable amount of damage in northwest Oklahoma City and near the Oak Tree area north of Edmond, OK.

Investigators from the Oklahoma State Fire Marshall's Office informed some flames breaking out just before midnight Wednesday.

Some of the local news channels are reporting heavy wind and storm damage in Oklahoma City near Northwest Expressway and Rockwell Avenue including blown-off awnings, blown-out signage, and downed power lines. The power lines are down and roofs have been blown off houses near Oak Tree.

Lone Grove, in the south-central part of the state near Ardmore has been damaged the most in OK. Three people are dead after a tornado ripped through the area around 7:30 PM.
