On Sunday the 19th in 2013, significant supercell storms quickly
developed along a dry line just west of the Oklahoma City metro area. Most of the storms became tornadic in nature and moved eastward, affecting several populated areas. Some of those impacted were Edmond, Luther, Carney, Lake Thunderbird and far east Norman, western Shawnee, and Prague. The most intense tornado occurred over far western Shawnee near the Shawnee Reservoir, where EF-4 damage was found before the tornado traveled north and crossed Interstate-40. Two fatalities and numerous injuries were reported. |
