Tornado Norman Oklahoma (U.S)

On Saturday the 21st of October 2017, Severe thunderstorms rolled through several states during the evening, one in particular reportedly as a tornado on the southwest side of Norman, Oklahoma, United States.

This happened just after 8:30 p.m. local time as a strong circulation was noted within the storm. The following report was issued by the National Weather Service regarding the storm.

The tornado tore part of the roof off of an Oklahoma Riverwind casino while the Beach Boys were playing a concert attended by Gov. Mary Fallin.

Governor Mary Fallin says in an interview with KWTV that she had to be evacuated from the Riverwind Casino in Norman, Oklahoma, twice during the concert Saturday night. She says that at one point: I looked up towards the balcony & there was this huge flood of rain coming through the roof. The building was evacuated at that point because of concern the roof would collapse.

She says that she also saw damage at a nearby hotel. There was no word whether there were injuries or fatalities.

Norman, Oklahoma 95th Annual OU Powwow 2009 Thunderhill

My first video... Just having some fun. I didn't get much of the dance because I left my other battery on the charger at home. Then the battery to the camera went out as the dance started heating up -_- Most of the shots are from the Grand Entry.
