Hi Susan,
Below is a flood update from Mary Francis north of you, also not yet
on the air and apparently her post didn't make the GRC list.
So much loss of life never occurred to us when we did your site survey
last year.
According to national TV coverage the river level has gone down. Here
is hoping it stays down.

 Oklahoma KVOY update

	We KVOY folks are all personally okay. OK still has deaths, tornado
damage and lots of tragic flooding in May.
 Just in case you are curious, you can track flooding at this link
(which includes another link to 'upstream gauge' or 'downstream
gauge') and has a search box for almost any river or city in the
USA: http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?wfo=oun&gage=lndo2&prob_type=stage
[1] 

	Oklahoma's had 25 tornadoes inMay ( still counting), every county has
been declared an emergency and in Cleveland Co. alone, we currently
have 26 road closures due to washed out bridges, roads, etc. Here is
Lake Thunderbird (our major water supply) and folks who are cut off by
the 12 ft over capacity.

	Not sure if this is bad news or good news, but we've discovered that
the studio bldg we planned to buy (which we fortunately haven't yet
bought) may be a flood casualty.  Pretty sure we'll be looking for
another site on higher ground!
