Glad to hear everyone was ok, that is so fortunate! I did hear about that last night, among the other reports I was watching. Rain wrapped tornadoes are the most difficult because there is no way to get 'ground truth' via spotters and storm chasers and NWS can only rely on radar which is not always a clear indicator of a tornado. A similar situation happened in Woodward, where the sirens never went off on the tornado that claimed three lives last night, including three children. Sometimes, these storms just put a tornado down with little warning.
