School district's coverup?
The teacher accused of sexting a Carney High School student was accused of similar behavior when he taught in Luther, a parent told Fox 25 News. A mother of a student in Luther said the Luther School District disciplined Wayne Haddox after speaking with her about her concerns. However, the Carney Schools Superintendent said Luther's administration did not mention any incidents and gave Haddox a positive recommendation. An attorney for Luther School District, as well as Haddox's attorney, denied the allegations.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Forecasters say a wetter-than-usual winter and a jet stream dipping deep into Tornado Alley could lead to an active spring for tornadoes.
The 2010 tornado season got off to a slow start with only one twister reported nationwide in February. But a strong twister ripped through Hammon in western Oklahoma Monday night, destroying five homes.
Greg Carbin of the Storm Prediction Center in Norman said Tuesday there will be an uptick in thunderstorm activity as spring approaches and the Southern Plains warms up.
Dr. Harold Brooks of the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman says Monday's tornado does not necessarily mean the season will be more active. But more tornados are possible in the coming weeks if the same weather pattern remains in place.
