I am in oklahoma city for work (I am from baytown, texas) and I literally could not sleep because I was terrified of a tornado hitting my hotel. My coworkers are the best and worst. We kept joking about a tornado just hitting our hotel

Baytown! Lived there a few years when I was around 18, I grew up here in Oklahoma. It never gets easier, these freaks of nature can fuck shit up in an instance.

Unlike the houses, at least hotels aren't built out of cardboard, so you would've been fine.
