Well, we're here on 654 bringing you the latest news. Flames have destroyed a home in Metro and firefighters are rushing to the scene. This is happening on Northeast 63rd Street and Spencer near Jericho. Our KOCO crews are fighting this fire both on the ground and in the air. Firefighters on scene said heavy smoke and flames were seen coming from the home early this morning. Everyone inside the home was able to get out safely. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation, but there is significant damage to the home and one person is seriously injured in the accident that occurred in Richland near Mustang. Our KOCO crews were on scene and witnessed one person being transported by medical helicopter. Multiple agencies responded to this accident but were unable to clear the scene.

We had to lower our rain chances on Thursday. It's not looking good. We're literally missing out on the rain. Oklahoma. Other places up north and south are getting rain. We're not getting it.
