2003 Weather and Climate Review


Weather History for October 30

Large hail, accompanied by very strong winds, caused widespread damage in Gould on October 30, 1987. Gould, in southwest Oklahoma, experienced golf ball size hail with winds of 70 to 80 mph. The wind-driven hail damaged most of the roofs in town, broke out many windows, and dented the sides of many homes. The storm caused about $200,000 in damage. Also on this date, in 1972, a lightning bolt did extensive structural damage to a home in the town of Dustin in Hughes County. The interior of the home was destroyed, and damage was done to the windows and the siding of the home. Even the foundation of the home suffered damage from the lightning. Amazingly, no fire was reported from the lightning strike.

On this date in 1979, an F3 tornado touched down in Carter County, and moved northward from near Newport to near Woodford. Three people were killed, two of which were in trailers, and the third of which one was hit by flying debris while pouring concrete. Three trailers, a brick home, and several barns were destroyed, as well as 10 buildings in Woodford.
