Event narrative

This tornado developed north of the E 1090 Road and west of New Texanna Road, where large tree limbs were snapped, the roof of a barn was blown off, and the roof of a home was damaged. The tornado moved northeast snapping large tree limbs as it crossed the S 4260 Road, and dissipated. Based on this damage, maximum estimated wind in the tornado was 80 to 85 mph.

Wider weather episode

Strong to severe thunderstorms developed into eastern Oklahoma during the early morning hours of the 4th, as a strong storm system translated from the Southern Rockies into the Southern Plains. Instability was weak but wind shear was very strong ahead of the attendant surface low pressure system and frontal boundaries. This allowed the thunderstorms to produce several tornadoes and damaging wind gusts.
