EF2 tornado in Rogers County, Oklahoma

This is the second segment of a two-segment tornado. In Rogers County, the tornado moved northeast and widened from near the E 340 Road across open country to north of the E 320 Road, where barns were damaged, the roofs of homes were damaged, and tree were uprooted. The tornado severely damaged a home, destroyed barns and outbuildings, and snapped two-pole utility structures near the S 4100 Road, before turning east and dissipating over open country north of the E 300 Road. It was observed by multiple people. Based on the damage, maximum estimated wind in this segment of the tornado was 110 to 120 mph.

Strong to severe thunderstorms developed across eastern Oklahoma during the early afternoon hours of the 30th, to the east of a stationary frontal boundary that was located across north-central Oklahoma into northwest Texas. Moderately strong instability combined with strong wind shear resulted in the development of supercell thunderstorms, which produced multiple tornadoes, including two strong tornadoes, large hail up to half dollar size, and damaging winds. Locally heavy rainfall also occurred across portions of northeastern Oklahoma, which resulted in flash flooding.
