Weāre at the public safety center in El Reno, where officials are expected to hold a 2am press conference regarding tornado damage @kfor @4WarnStormTeam #OKWX
Mayor confirms two deaths, cannot confirm age/sex yet. They still need to notify the next of kin. ME is on the scene. At this point, mayor says it is a search and rescue effort @kfor
Once daylight hits, they should have a better idea of the extent of damage. They are expecting to hold another press conference at 9am. Residents at the trailer park hit have been evacuated, moved to the VFW @kfor
