Catastophic Tornado in Oklahoma
The video above shows a tornado forming in Oklahoma that occurred on May 24th of this year. The tornado was a part of a series of tornadoes that occurred in the late afternoon on that Tuesday. There were four deaths and three children were critically injured due to the tornado. The video shows how quickly the tornado formed and the destruction it caused along its path. Winds were estimated to range between 55 miles-per-hour and 75 miles-per-hour while also including hail the size of baseballs. As seen in the video, the tornado features dense cumulonimbus clouds which are evident as the tornado forms. The temperature was recorded to be 68 degrees, which was the 55th coolest on redcord for May in Oklahoma.
