Thunderstorm wind resulted in at least $531,000 in debris removal and damage to the utility infrastructure across the county during this severe thunderstorm. Some people were without power for over a week.
Lightning started a fire at a tank battery of a petroleum company. The fire spread from the tank it first struck and ultimately destroyed nine steel and fiberglass tanks.
Thunderstorm winds estimated at 80 miles an hour caused extensive damage in Drumright. Large trees were blown down, several carports were destroyed, shingles were peeled off of several homes, privacy fences were blown down and the fire station lost part of its roof.
A wind gust from the outflow of a thunderstorm was measured at 62 miles an hour. No rain fell, but several trees and power lines were blown down. One tree fell on a house.
Thunderstorms during the morning of July 19th produced very heavy rainfall which resulted in flash flooding in western Osage and western Creek Counties of northeast Oklahoma. 2 feet of water covered U.S. Highway 60 west of Burbank, and street flooding occurred in Drumright.
Isolated severe thunderstorms developed in eastern Oklahoma during the evening of March 6th. Dime-size hail fell six miles southwest of Muse, two miles south of Bengal, and at Pocola. Thunderstorm winds gusted to 60 mph 10 miles east of Drumright, and these winds downed numerous large tree limbs.
