A Few Extra Notes

Not only tornadoes this afternoon but also lots of hail reports.

* Hail three inches in diameter near Fay, Okla., Blaine County.
* Hail 1-3/4 inch diameter in Oklahoma City
* The NWS has updated the Joplin tornado to an EF5, the strongest tornado rating
* Late reports say 122 fatalities in Joplin and 750 injured. However, there seems to be a lot of people unaccounted for and quite a bit of confusion in the injury numbers.
