You think lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place?

Look at this comparison of the paths of today's F3-F4 Oklahoma City tornado, and the path of the F5 tornado from 1999.05.03, the strongest tornado ever recorded:

By the way, El Reno would be off the left edge of this map, so I wasn't anywhere close, but Justin Seal was driving right about where the "240" shield is on that map when the storms hit. I don't know why I'm more frazzled than he is.
