Tornadoes and Hail in Oklahoma, May 6, 1993

Severe thunderstorms developed in south-central Oklahoma on the 6th and moved very slowly east. A small F0 tornado developed along interstate 35 west of Ardmore and tracked northeast about eight miles before dissipating. The tornado overturned a tractor-semitrailer on Interstate 35 injuring the driver and snapped power poles on the northwest side of Ardmore. A second brief tornado downed power poles just northeast of Lone Grove. Strong thunderstorm winds uprooted trees, damaged the library and downed power poles in Lone Grove, broke off eight inch tree limbs four miles west-northwest of Brown and rolled a tractor-semitrailer near Caddo. Flash flooding from heavy rains washed out a bridge on Route 76 just north of Healdton. Water covered roads two miles southwest of Cobb and five miles west of Durant. Heavy rains resulted in street flooding in Durant. Heavy rains in Ardmore resulted in six inches of water in a movie theater, flooded streets with motorists stranded and 20 cars damaged by water two feet deep at an auto dealership. A lightning strike started a fire which resulted in an estimated $80,000 in damage to a house in Ardmore. Lightning knocked out the Durant Police department dispatch radio.
