The county from the air

46 shown

Flown 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 1,017 frames inside the rectangle that bounds this county; the 46 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.

March 2020	Tornado (EF0)	South Bend	2 hurt	A severe thunderstorm emerged out of Stephens County, moving into the southern portions of Young County. A tornado developed near the South Bend region, where damage occurred to several homes and businesses. The tornado continued moving northeast, paralleling HWY 67 toward Graham. The tornado then veered slightly to the east as it approached Sidney Mountain, crossing HWY 67 just south of Rosser Ranch Rd. The tornado struck multiple homes along Rosser Ranch Rd, leaving behind a swath of damage before moving over open fields again. The tornado continued moving east causing damage to one additional structure along State HWY 16. Further east, the damage along Canyon Road did not exhibit tornadic origins. Rather, it was likely caused by the storm's rear flank downdraft. Maximum winds with this tornado were 110 mph, and the maximum width was about 0.20 miles.
November 1958	Tornado (F2)	not stated	1 hurt, $250,000	no account filed
March 2020	Tornado (EF0)	Bunger	1 hurt, $3,000	The same thunderstorm that produced the tornado near South Bend produced another tornado to the east, just south of Pettus Ln and Old Hwy 16. This storm moved north, mainly causing tree damage. There was one home in the path which sustained minor roof damage. The tornado dissipated shortly after damaging the house. Maximum winds with this tornado were near 80 mph with a maximum width of 120 yards.
May 1995	Thunderstorm Wind	North CentralTexas	$1,200,000,000	Just after 1730 CDT, a thunderstorm developed rapidly on the Palo Pinto/Parker County line ahead of an intense squall line over the western part of north Texas. This storm quickly became severe, producing hail up to golf ball-size 18 inches deep across southern parts of Parker County, and flash flooding resulting in two deaths. The storm continued to intensify as it moved into Tarrant County around 1900 CDT, producing baseball-size hail in Benbrook. As the storm moved east-northeast across Fort Worth, softball-size hail was reported at many locations. At Mayfest, a large outdoor festival located at Trinity Park in Fort Worth, an estimated 10,000 people were caught in the open with little available shelter. Hail up to softball-size injured many people. The storm continued moving east-northeast across Tarrant County producing large hail, wind damage, and flash flooding producing rainfall, with one flash flood death. At 1948 CDT, as the storm began moving into Dallas County, the squall line that was to the west merged with the severe thunderstorm. This merger resulted in record rainfall and massive flash flooding the remainder of the night across Dallas County, with 17 people drowned and many stranded by high water. Total estimated damage across Parker, Tarrant, and Dallas counties, from this storm, is estimated at over $1.2 billion, the costliest thunderstorm event in the history of the United States.
