The county from the air
37 shownFlown by the U.S. Geological Survey between 1937 and 1989, the Aerial Photo Single Frames collection is the definitive mid-century view of the land: fields, roads and rivers as the camera saw them. The Survey holds 825 frames inside the rectangle that bounds this county; the 37 frames below were taken over the county itself, chosen across the decades of flights (at most four a year from that rectangle), so one flight cannot crowd out the rest. The full set is free to browse and download at EarthExplorer under the dataset Aerial Photo Single Frames.

The damage in and near Spaulding was primarily EF1 damage.||The tornado became wider as it moved north-northeast from Spaulding becoming almost two-thirds of a mile wide as it crossed County Road E135 and a mile wide as it moved north of County Road E134. Most of the damage west of Holdenville was between Spaulding Road and County Road N369 missing the most populated part of Holdenville to the west and the missing the Davis Correctional Facility to the east. The tornado continued producing roof damage to homes as well as damage to outbuildings, metal buildings, trees and power poles. ||The tornado was still about one mile in width as it moved north-northeast crossing US Highway 270 and County Road E132, but the intensity increased from EF1 to EF3 as it approached County Road E131. Multiple mobile homes were completely destroyed in this area. Two fatalities occurred in mobile homes here where a 35 year old man was killed in one mobile home and a 4 month old girl was killed in another.||Although the tornado moved through less densely populated areas of Hughes County continued moving north-northeast through less densely populated areas of Hughes County, it still produced significant roof damage to homes and destroyed mobile homes as it continued moving north-northeast, especially along State Highway 48 north of Holdenville, County Road E125 just east of State Highway 48, and E120 Road where EF2 damage was observed in each of these areas.
