Recap of the severe weather outbreak April 13th-14th here in Texoma.
What an active day couple of days here across the Southern Plains but thankfully here in Texoma we escaped the worse of the severe weather. On Friday April 13th severe t'storms did form across a boundary that lined up across and just north of the Red River. Here is a map of storm reports and a couple radar images from a tornadic t'storm that caused some damage across Blair, Warren and Friendship, Oklahoma. Myself and my weekend meteorologist Joe were on-air from 4pm-10pm several times with wall to wall coverage tracking the tornado.
Saturday looked like an even bigger day especially just off to our north with the earliest high risk outlook ever by the Storm Prediction Center. Definitely a day that the tornado parameters were very high from Oklahoma to Nebraska.
The Woodward tornado has a preliminary rating of EF-3 with max winds of 136-165 mph. Here is a video from a EF-4 tornado that occurred in Kansas during the day on Saturday.
Over the next 10 days the weather pattern the threat of severe weather looks really low along with the chances of rain. Thanks for reading and please make sure you add this website to your favorites. Justin
