EF1 tornado in Beaver County, Oklahoma

There were multiple reports from local government officials and storm spotters of this tornado developing in Ochiltree County, Texas. The tornado then continued to move northeast crossed into Oklahoma. Along its path, multiple power flashes were witnessed. Tree and fence damage was found near the Texas/Oklahoma state line. A rating of EF-1 was given with a maximum wind speed of 86 mph.

A powerful storm system brought significant severe weather to the region. Tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail accompanied thunderstorms that formed during the afternoon hours and persisted into the evening. This was a very unusual event for late fall in the Central High Plains. One significant factor in this anomalous event was the presence of an unusual amount of moisture for mid-November, contributing to relatively high values of instability. Only one tornado had previously been documented in the Oklahoma Panhandle during the month of November.
