| Episode Narrative | A surface low developed over the Texas Panhandle through the day, lifting a stationary front northward as a warm front across Oklahoma. As the surface low deepened, a potent dryline developed over western Oklahoma. Despite somewhat marginal upper level winds for supercells, effective shear was highly supportive of sustained rotating thunderstorms which propagated east-southeastward through the afternoon. Storms began during the mid to late afternoon over parts of north-central and northwest Oklahoma, and migrated southward into the Oklahoma City metropolitan area by evening. Significant damage occurred across the Oklahoma City area due to very large hail and severe winds. A couple of brief tornadoes also occurred northwest of Oklahoma City. Total damages of $400 to $500 million were estimated across the Oklahoma City Metropolitan area. |
| Event Narrative | Wind gusts downed several 6 to 8 inch diameter tree limbs. Damages estimated. |
