A two-mile wide supercell storm released a tornado in Shawnee, Oklahoma just outside Oklahoma City today ripping roofs off buildings, leveling homes and leaving massive destruction. At least one school was in the tornado’s devastation zone in Moore, Oklahoma. The tornado was estimated to be at least two miles wide at one point as it moved through Moore, Oklahoma suggesting the possibility of more than 171,000 people in the path of the storm. The National Weather Service said the tornado was on the ground for nearly 40 minutes, with the first tornado warning coming 16 minutes before it touched down. The preliminary damage rating on the enhanced fujita scale was EF4 — the second most-powerful type of twister — and carved a 20-mile path through Newcastle, Moore and South Oklahoma City.
The severe weather came after tornadoes and powerful storms ripped through Oklahoma and the Midwest earlier Sunday evening into early Monday morning, leveling homes in or near Carney, Bethel Acres and Norman, overturning damaging roofs and trees in southeast Edmond. Gov. Mary Fallin declared a state of emergency for 16 counties, noting initial reports of damage in numerous communities including Bethel Acres, Carney, Edmond, Little Axe, Norman, Shawnee and Wellston.
