  • This is a 100 MPH straight line wind event moving from West to East in Tulsa starting at 12:15 am cst on June 18, 2023. The storm lashed Tulsa with gale force winds, illuminating lightning and gigantic thundering downbursts. The blue and orange flashing in the sky is the casting of electric lines arcing, aka power flash, as approximately 250 powerline poles are damaged. The power flash color spectrum is blue-green to white to orange. This storm wreaked havoc on Tulsa’s tree canopy and knocked out the power to 150,000 + homes and businesses. God Speed with the restoration Tulsa.

    We had one crazy Thunderstorm last month here in, Texas. It was insane! Blew part of our fence down, blew some of our neighbors roof off into my bedroom window. I was thinking, if there's not a tornado 🌪️ in this craziness, I'd be really surprised. It was strong. I must add. The lightning & thunder that came with that sneeze from hades, was outrageous! I swear, the flashes were continuous with booming thunder. I love storms, but that thing had my dog under the bed like it was the fourth of July!

    This also produced 3 Confirmed Tornados and many twist ups. 6 days without electricity. 4 days without cell phone and internet.
    The hardest hit areas were the oldest and poorest neighborhoods. Whole families were out walking around the next day in search of food. No businesses were open North of the BA.
    The Governor was in France and the Lt. GOV who lives in Tulsa drove thru the damage on his way to the airport. He was on his way to a working Vacation at a Resort in Georgia.
    No Salvation Army
    No Red Cross
    No State Government
    3 days before it was declared a disaster.

      My daughter and her family live in Broken Arrow and they where without power for week I finally found them a generator in McAlester and hour away and they found a window unit they have 5 little ones so I don't know what they would have done if we had not found a generator there where no hotel rooms available in surrounding cities the gas stations where running out of gas no places to get food except for a few fast food places it was horrible.

    I live in Buffalo, NY and we NEVER get storms like these, and our summers are just as humid and hot. We could have a stretch of oppressive heat and humidity without a single drop of rain, even when cold fronts pass through it's usually a smooth transition a week from 85° w/ 70% humidity to 70° w/ 30% humidity. The influence of Lake Erie stabilizes the atmosphere like a dome and any storms coming in from Ohio will lose their punch or hit north and south of our county. But the areas 20 miles + inland where the lake influence offers less stability have been known to see severe storms almost daily. Buffalo is heavily canapied with tall oak, ash and maple trees that were planted before 1900. The biggest threat that would cause the loss of many of them has been disease. Luckily for us our high wind events hit us in the late fall and during the winter when the leaves are gone allowing the trees to survive 80-100 mph wind gusts. We usually have at least one 48 hour wind event in November where we see sustained winds of 40-45 mph and frequent gusts up to 75mph usually accompanied by clouds but also clear sky's. It's just the wind. The real damage however can be found along the immediate lake shores due to waves building up to 20 ft or higher on the lake causing major flooding for those communities. And if the winds hit us from the south west and due to the position of Lake Erie and our position on the north east shore, we are at the end of the 500 mile fetch or length of the lane and the winds will literally push all of that water up the fetch causing a storm surge along with 20 ft waves. Toledo OH is on the other end and they'll see a drastic reduction of water depth, almost like before a tsunami hits except one never hits them, it's just all the water being pushed out of their area and into ours. And because we have such a thick canopy here whenever t storms roll through that pack winds we hold our breath as we hear the wind through the trees getting more intense and then subside allowing us to exhale and breath again. These types of storms are fun to watch in other places but not so much here.

    Here's what I figure would happen to a city in a derecho with the following wind intensities:
    100 mph: Several trees uprooted, huge branches torn off, shingles blown off of roofs, many utility poles downed, widespread power outages lasting about a week
    120 mph: Majority of trees knocked down, roof damage, damage to windows, widespread power outages lasting about two weeks
    140 mph: Most trees knocked down, some roofs blown off, widespread power outages lasting at least THREE weeks
    160 mph: All trees knocked down, most houses lose their roofs, widespread power outages lasting at least ONE MONTH
    180 mph: Many well-built houses reduced to piles of rubble, trees don't stand a chance, widespread power outages lasting TWO MONTHS or more.
    200 mph or more: I hope you have a mostly underground concrete bunker!

    Shortly Jesus son of Mary, peace be upon him, will descend in Syria on the wings of two angels, his face dripping water as if he had just come out of the shower, his breath will reach the tips of his fingers, any person who enters into the space of his breath will die immediately except for Muslims, he will kill the pig and break the cross and then pray in Al-Aqsa Mosque with Muslims, Then he calls the Christians to convert to Islam, He also recommended them before (in the Gospel of Barnabas) to believe in Muhammad, the Messenger of God peace be upon him.[61:6]
    And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel! Lo! I am the messenger of Allah unto you, confirming that which was (revealed) before me in the Torah, and bringing good tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One. Yet when he hath come unto them with clear proofs, they say: This is mere magic.
    [61:7]
    And who doeth greater wrong than he who inventeth a lie against Allah when he is summoned unto Al-Islam ? And Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.
    [61:8]
    Fain would they put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light however much the disbelievers are averse.
