Deaths and injuries are direct and indirect together, as the offices filed them. Damage is property and crops in the dollars of the year, not adjusted for inflation, and only where an office estimated it.
The episode as NWS TSA wrote it up.
A slow moving frontal boundary resulted in periods of thunderstorm activity and locally heavy rainfall over a period of several days, which eventually led to moderate flooding along the Neosho River near Commerce.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Tulsa, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at May 13, 10:59 PM CST, 1 hour 31 minutes earlier.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BEGINNING TO INCREASE FROM SOUTHWEST INTO CENTRAL OKLAHOMA IN VICINITY OF ELEVATED FRONTAL ZONE. PROFILER DATA SHOWING A MODEST INCREASE IN 850MB WIND SPEEDS WITH A GENERAL BACKING OF THE MID LEVEL FLOW AS WELL WHICH WILL LEAD TO GREATER NORTHWARD MOISTURE TRANSPORT. THE MAIN RESULT WILL BE A CONTINUED INCREASE IN COVERAGE OF RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN MORE OF A CONCERN OVERNIGHT AS OPPOSED TO SEVERE THREAT WE SAW LAST NIGHT. OVERALL FORECAST HANDLES THIS FAIRLY WELL AND THE ONLY SIGNIFICANT CHANGE WAS TO SHIFT AXIS OF HIGHEST POPS/QPF A LITTLE FARTHER NORTH TOWARD I-44 CORRIDOR.
