NW Oklahoma's Saturday Tornadic Winds

NewsOK.com also reported in their Sunday paper, ".....Woods County officials reported that storms toppled an antenna that stood several stories tall and also knocked down trees and power lines.

"The roof was stripped off at a salvage yard, and one wall was taken off a barn, but no injuries were reported, Alva Fire Chief Kirk Trekell said.

"The National Weather Service issued a tornado warning for the area as the storms approached, but there was no confirmation that the damage was caused by a twister.

"Kathryn Eckhardt, a dispatcher at the Woods County sheriff?s office, said several homes had windows blown out and power lines knocked on top of them. Pea to quarter-size hail that fell on the area may have damaged wheat crops in the area, Trekell said."
