Oklahomans are preparing for another round of severe weather as they assess the damage from weekend tornadoes. The storms left behind destroyed homes, flooded streets, and injured at least 11 people. More tornadoes, hail, and strong winds are expected on Monday, targeting areas like Oklahoma City. The Storm Prediction Center has warned that these tornadoes could be serious. Heavy rain may also cause street flooding. Nearly 40 structures were wrecked in Oklahoma City alone, with many more damaged. Residents like Katie Anderson and Thomas Shaver shared their experiences, highlighting the importance of safety over material possessions. The governor has declared an emergency in six counties and is ensuring power for polling stations ahead of Tuesday's election. Despite the chaos, some people are grateful for their safety and what they have left. Nighttime tornadoes are known to be more dangerous due to low visibility and sleep.
