EF1 tornado in Tulsa County, Oklahoma

This is the first of two segments for this tornado. This tornado developed south of E 96th Street South and west of S 16th Street where it damaged roofs of homes, snapped or uprooted large trees, and destroyed barns as it moved northeast. Based on this damage, maximum estimated wind in this segment of the tornado was 100 to 110 mph. The tornado continued into Wagoner County, crossing County Line Road near E 94th Street South.

A complex of storms that had been over portions of eastern Oklahoma during the early morning hours intensified during the late morning and afternoon resulting in isolated reports of large hail and damaging wind. A much more widespread severe weather event occurred later in the day as severe thunderstorms redeveloped across central and eastern Oklahoma during the afternoon hours ahead of a dry line over central Oklahoma and along an outflow boundary across northeastern Oklahoma. The storms produced large hail and damaging wind. A bow echo type of storm produced a brief tornado in northern Creek County during the afternoon. Two supercell thunderstorms moved along the outflow boundary from the morning thunderstorms and produced several tornadoes during the evening. One storm produced several tornadoes across Mayes County and the other produced a damaging tornado in Broken Arrow.
