Oklahoma Wildfires: April 18th update

One more day of critical fire weather in Northwest Oklahoma, relief on the way, see this Facebook Poat from the National Weather Service Norman Oklahoma for more information.

There is a nice short video from KTLU, Channel 8 in Tulsa OK, that KTLU posted on their Facebook page.

For some imagery from GOES-East showing smoke from the Oklahoma Wildfires see this short video from the satellite liaison blog

Updates on the Rhea (283,095 acres burned with only 3% containment) and the 34 Complex Fires (67,778 acres burned at 45% containment. The Oklahoma Forestry Services (OFS) posted updates on this OFS Facebook post and they also posted an update on the Rhea Fire on a second OFS Facebook post

Last but by no means least, the 34 Complex Fire has a NWS Incident Meteorologist. Watch IMET David Shallenberger share about being an IMET on this OFS Facebook post
