Local Weather History For June 25th...
Large hail and high winds accompanied severe thunderstorms across
parts of north-central and southwest Oklahoma on June 25, 1961.
Baseball-size hail fell in Lacey, in Kingfisher County, and hail up
to the size of golf balls drifted into knee-deep piles in other
places. Besides the hail, strong winds gusted to more than 70 mph,
and some areas received up to five inches of rain in a short time.
According to one report, the wind-driven hail tore the hides off
cattle.
