Check out this up-close video from Mike Scantlin of StormChase.TV, only a few hundred yards away from the Hammon tornado.  This tornado was rated an EF2 by an NWS damage survey team today, and a second tornado was also confirmed further northeast of Hammon, causing no damage.  The 00z NAM is showing a potential tornado outbreak tomorrow over extreme northeast Oklahoma and southeast Kansas, southward across most of Arkansas and possibly Northeast Texas.  A large area of 1-2 0-1 km EHIs are forecast to reside over the entire warm sector south of a warm front draped across Eastern Kansas into central Missouri by 00z, and any discrete supercells that move through this environment will have a high chance of producing tornadoes.  Stay tuned for update, and be sure to check out TornadoVideos.net/live for live streaming video as tomorrow's severe weather event unfolds.
