Local Weather History For May 27th...
|
|
May 27, 2001 brought one of the most destructive and widespread
windstorms to much of Oklahoma and north Texas in recent memory. Severe thunderstorms developed over southwest Kansas during the late afternoon, and rapidly merged into a large severe thunderstorm complex that moved rapidly southeast over the western-half of Oklahoma into northern Texas during the evening and overnight hours. This complex produced widespread and significant wind damage along its path, leaving 1 person dead, 4 injured, 160,000 people without power and over $350 million in damage in Oklahoma alone. Several non-tornadic wind reports in excess of 100 mph were recorded, and it took nearly a week to restore power to all of the affected areas. |
