February 2023Tornado (EF2)Aydelotte$250,000This tornado developed just north of the Shawnee Mall on the north side of Shawnee and raced to the north-northeast creating tree damage and damage to a pivot irrigator. Several power poles were damaged along Wolverine Road near Harrison Avenue before the tornado turned northeast moving through a neighborhood near Moccassin Trail Road and Bryan Road. Several homes in this neighborhood had significant roof damage with at least one home losing its entire roof. The tornado continues producing tree, power pole, fence and outbuilding damage before crossing into Lincoln County near Brangus Road.
April 2026Tornado (EF1)Aydelotte$150,000A few minutes after the tornado near Dale dissipated, a separate circulation was noted on radar, which tightened and moved to the south and southeast. This tornado likely began northwest of the Leo Avenue and Wolverine Road intersection. While moving to the southeast, sporadic EF0 damage to trees was noted on Leo Avenue, north of Garretts Lake Road. EF1 damage was assessed to a gas station awning along Oklahoma State Highway 18 and Westech Road.
May 2003Tornado (F1)Aydelotte$7,500This is the first segment of a narrow tornado that began in Pottawatomie County, 3.5 miles south of Prague, then moved north-northeast into Lincoln County before dissipating 2.2 miles ENE of Prague. Shortly after touching down, this tornado caused minor damage to a house. The tornado then moved through rural areas downing a few tree limbs before blowing shingles off a house along Highway 377. The south end of a metal roof on a shed was peeled back along with a tree uprooted in the same location. The tornado continued to move north-northeast downing a few tree limbs along the way. Sheet metal was also found blown against the south side of an east-west fence line near the Pottawatomie-Lincoln County line.
