16:18:20 -- 10mi ESE of Taloga, OK (Looking Southwest)
This cell was located almost due west of us, though the core had probably moved to our northwest by now.  I believe dewpoint deficits were in the 5F range, which supports the visually-low LCLs.  Notice how the cloud base almost descends all the way to the ground on the right!  I believe snow was falling along the northwest of edge of this complex (northwest of Woodward).
