Episode Narrative With an upper low traversing the region, a cold front stationed over the panhandles, and a developing dryline, storms developed out in the panhandles early on the 16th and made their way eastward across Oklahoma through the day. Toward evening, when the severe weather occurred, the front surged eastward with a line of storms forming along it.
Event Narrative The tornado moved into Alfalfa County from Major county and moved east-northeast. An outbuilding was destroyed about 5 miles east-southeast of Aline near the end of the tornado path.
