In case you missed it, we had a tornado last night.

The NWS is confirming a tornado touched down at Tulsa International Airport at 11:14 pm, leaving a .4-mile path of destruction 80 yards wide.  Moving northeast at about 60MPH, it peeled the concrete roof from an airport hotel, overturned cars and damaged waiting airliners.

KOTV reported that the damage is sofar classified as F1 but may be revised upward as cleanup begins, and Fox23 had a picture of a jet that had been spun around.
