Some towns were hit by multiple tornadoes; widespread destruction reported in Sulphur, Okla.
Residents clean up debris in the Des Moines suburb of Pleasant Hill, Iowa after multiple tornadoes ripped across the state. A historic and deadly tornado outbreak leveled neighborhoods in several Oklahoma towns Saturday night, with a series of “large and extremely dangerous” tornadoes forming after dark in southern portions of the Sooner State.
A tornado touched down near Stillwater in north-central Oklahoma on April 27. Footage shows the tornado forming and touching ground. All that changed around dark, when the low level jet stream — or a conveyor belt of moisture and strong winds from the south several thousand feet high — ramped up. The jet helped break the cap, allowing storms to form and also help energize them.
