Meridian Power Outages Caused by Weather
Events
This nighttime tornado formed in rural areas 1 mile east of Indian Meridian Road and 2.5 miles north of the Oklahoma-Logan county line, or 5 miles SSE of Meridian, causing a small but concentrated area of tree and power line damage. Several large trees, with trunk diameters of 1 to 2 feet, were uprooted or snapped off near the base. Large tree limbs were snapped off from numerous other trees in the area. The damage was confined to mostly open country. No structural damage was found.
This tornado was described by spotters as having a large funnel and as a possible "wedge" tornado, but no damage was reported (although power flashes were observed). The estimated track, based on spotters and NSSL rotation track maps from the Twin Lakes radar, began 5 miles SE of Meridian and continued NE across rural areas, ending just inside the Logan/Lincoln County line at 2125 CST, 6 miles east of Meridian. The parent mesocyclone occluded shortly thereafter, with a new one forming to the southeast.
