Episode Narrative A dryline and upper level wave combined with strong shear to produce multiple tornadic supercells across southern Oklahoma on the 22nd.
Event Narrative Damage was observed in high-resolution satellite imagery from a large tornado that occurred in areas of the southern Arbuckle Mountains inaccessible to ground survey teams. The large tornado developed on the southern slopes of the Arbuckle Mountains and was observed by many storm spotters and storm chasers as it moved northeast into the Arbuckles. The satellite imagery indicated a clear path of tree damage that moved intermittently northeast and east-northeast with the most significant and widest area of tree damage along a tree line along Cool Creek where numerous large trees were toppled along a 600 yard wide path. The tornado crossed into Murray County south-southwest of Dougherty.
