What the National Weather Service wrote
Numerous storm chasers observed a tornado that developed about 9 miles west of Boone near the Kiowa-Caddo County line. The tornado moved northeast crossing State Highways 58 and 19 causing significant roof damage to a home and breaking power poles. Although this tornado became wrapped in rain and was generally not visible after crossing the highway, additional tree damage was reported east of the highway, and it is believed to have continued northeast approximately three miles.
The wider storm
An unseasonably warm and moist airmass was in place across the region ahead of a powerful upper wave moving out of the 4 corners region. This led to the development of numerous severe thunderstorms across Oklahoma and Texas during the afternoon and evening of the 10th. Several tornadoes were reported, along with hail larger than baseballs that impacted Norman, OK for the second time in six months, leading to millions of dollars in damages once again to homes, cars, and businesses.
Began near Boone (34.9000, -98.6190).
