Violent EF-4 tornado near Katie, Oklahoma: May 9, 2016

On Monday, May 9, 2016, storm chasers Dave Demko and Heidi Farrar documented the violent yet highly photogenic Garvin County, OK, EF-4 tornado a few miles west of the town of Wynnewood. This tornado lasted for over 20 minutes, and, sadly, caused major damage to homes and farms, and was responsible for one fatality near the small town of Katie.
This tornado also immediately preceded a large, violent wedge tornado that moved a few miles north of the town of Sulphur, and was produced by the same storm.
