Tulsa, situated in the Green Country region of Oklahoma, has witnessed the destructive power of tornadoes firsthand. The devastating tornado that ravaged Tulsa on June 8, 1974, causing nearly $44 million in damages and claiming lives, serves as a stark reminder of the importance of preparedness. With an average of three tornadoes and one fatality each year, it is abundantly clear that Tulsa remains susceptible to these high-risk weather events. Since 1950, Tulsa has experienced a total of 214 tornadoes, with the most destructive one occurring on June 8, 1974, resulting in $44 million in damages and the loss of 14 lives.

Notably, an F5 tornado in 1960, the largest in the area, caused 81 injuries and claimed 5 lives. More recently, an EF-2 tornado wreaked havoc on neighborhoods east of S Harvard Avenue and south of E 36th Street S, causing significant damage to homes and uprooting large trees. This destructive path continued, snapping trees and power poles as the tornado headed east-southeast, leaving behind a trail of damaged or destroyed businesses between Yale Avenue and Sheridan Road, particularly on E 41st Street.

With roofs and exterior walls blown away, vehicles overturned, and injuries reported, this area bore the brunt of the tornado’s wrath. Further along its path, businesses between Sheridan Road and Highway 169 also experienced roof, wall, and window damage, with power poles and trees brought down in the area. The tornado ultimately dissipated near Highway 169, moving roughly along E 51st Street before reaching its end just shy of Aspen Avenue (S 145th East Avenue).

These events underscore the vital importance of being prepared for such calamities.
