The other day out in OKC we had some bad storms come in. The storms at first were just dark clouds, but they soon changed to a lot of lightening. Around 7:45, OKC was put in a tornado warning. The area of concern was just about 2 miles north northeast of the field. My uncle is an employee for Delta and was on a flight into KOKC with his wife and my grandpa. I live south of OKC and I could hear the sirens from my place. I got a text message around 7:46 saying that my uncle's plane has just landed. I talked to my uncle later that night and he said that they had landed to the south which would be 17L or 17R. If you were the captain would you want to take the risk of flying into something like that? The storm was northeast and there approach brought them in from the northest. I am no pilot but that just seems a little dangerous. Why wouldn't you try to get clearance to divert or to wait for the storms to clear out of the area? Shouldn't the airport be closed for the time being? I would really like to know what you all think. Thanks for your time.
