Local Weather History For July 2nd...
|
|
Large hail and damaging winds accompanied severe thunderstorms across
parts of central Oklahoma on July 2, 1972. Baseball-size hail fell in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area, and winds reached 75 to 100 mph. The wind took down power lines and damaged or destroyed at least 23 mobile homes. Winds gusted to 100 mph in Lindsay, and 80 mph in Norman. The wind in these areas mainly damaged trees and blew down power lines, but also damaged a few roofs. |
