Local Weather History For December 29th...
A late season severe weather outbreak brought tornadoes, hail, and
damaging winds to central and north-central Oklahoma on December
29th, 1972. A tornado in McClain County damaged a farm, destroyed a
garage, and blew away a boat near Purcell. Farther north, in the
Perry area, hail larger than baseballs damaged homes, businesses, and
automobiles. As the storms moved east into the Stillwater area, they
produced 70 to 90 mph winds, which damaged 10 trailer homes.
Fortunately, no one was hurt or killed by the widespread severe
weather.
