2 figures

Loveland grew from 13 to 13 between 2010 and 2020. These are the recorded population figures Wikidata holds for this place, reached through the Geographic Names Information System number this page is keyed on rather than by name, so they belong to this place and not to another of the same name. Most are census counts, but not all are: an early figure may be a founding or settlement estimate, and an estimate published within five years of a census is left out. The change column is computed, and is left blank where more than 20 years separate a figure from the one before it, because a gap that long is not a change between two counts.

WhenEvent Place namedHarm What the report says
April 2025Thunderstorm WindLoveland$75,000Relayed images showing thunderstorm wind damage including multiple metal outbuildings either significantly damaged or destroyed, large trees and tree limbs blown down and a large horse trailer blown over. Event time is estimated from radar observations.
November 2024Thunderstorm WindLoveland$50,000A swath of significant straight-line winds, associated with an evident mesovortex signature on radar, caused widespread wind damage along Oklahoma Highway 5 in far northeastern Tillman County. Damage included irrigation pivots overturned, a three-thousand-pound feeder displaced several feet, a semi-trailer blown over and large tree limbs blown down. Event time is radar-estimated.
April 2024Thunderstorm WindLoveland$10,000Thunderstorm wind damage to fences and trees, along with portions of a barn roof removed. Time is radar estimated.
May 2018Tornado (EF2)Loveland$5,000This tornado developed approximately 3 miles northwest of Loveland, on the north side of a large and destructive area of thunderstorm winds that moved from near the Frederick airport to near Loveland (see above). The tornado initially moved south-southeast, and then curved to the southeast and east in an area southwest of Loveland. Except for one outbuilding that was destroyed southwest of Loveland, the damage was primarily to trees and power poles. Much of the path remained over open fields.
April 2024Tornado (EF1)Loveland$2,000A strong anticyclonic tornado developed between Loveland and Grandfield near the intersection of county roads E1890 and N2370 Roads. Trees were snapped near the beginning of the path, but no other damage was observed or accessible in this very rural area of Tillman County and the remainder of the path is estimated from differences in NDVI satellite imagery. As with the tornado northeast of Hollister, velocity data from nearby KFDR radar indicates that this tornado was likely stronger than the observed damage indicates with the rotational velocity observed from KFDR up to 71 knots.
May 2018Tornado (EF1)Loveland$2,000A tornado developed about 5 miles east-northeast of Loveland and moved northeast crossing into Cotton County and dissipating about 5 miles south of Chattanooga. Utility poles were damaged both along State Highway 36 in Tillman County and NS243 Road in Cotton County.

April 2025FloodLoveland-A relayed image during the early afternoon of 30 April showed significant flooding across the floodplain to Deep Red Creek, near the intersection of Oklahoma Highway 36 and 1880 Road. Event time is approximate and flooding at this location may have been ongoing before and after the listed event time.
April 2024Flash FloodLoveland-Roadway flooding along Oklahoma State Highway 5, near the Tillman and Cotton County line. Relayed by emergency management. Event time is approximate.
May 2022Tornado (EFU)Loveland-Storm spotters observed to tornado to the southwest of Loveland. No damage was reported and the path is estimated.
