A large and significant tornado outbreak occurred across the Central United States from May 6–9, 2024, as a result of a slow-moving trough that was moving across the country. Several tornadoes were reported across the region, particularly in Oklahoma. A damaging tornado struck the towns of Barnsdall and Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Three fatalities directly linked to the tornadoes have been confirmed so far. Severe and tornadic weather spread eastward over the Mississippi, Ohio, and Tennessee Valleys over the next two days. Tornado emergencies were issued for three consecutive days between May 6–8; the last time that had occurred was exactly 21 years prior between May 6–9, 2003.[5]

Meteorological synopsis

High risk convective outlook issued by the Storm Prediction center at 13:00 UTC on May 6

May 6

On May 6, a tornado-driven high risk was issued by the Storm Prediction Center across central, north central, and, later, northeastern Oklahoma and south central Kansas. However, throughout the day, only weak tornadoes occurred across the Plains. A separate system also spawned severe thunderstorms in Tennessee, including one that produced an EF1 tornado that moved through Smithville. Later that night, a powerful supercell spawned a violent tornado southeast of Hominy, Oklahoma. The tornado continued northeast, producing significant tree damage. As the tornado closed in on the city of Barnsdall, a tornado emergency was issued. The tornado entered the southeast part of Barnsdall, where it inflicted EF4 damage to a well-constructed two-story home along with EF3 damage to other homes and a well-built, metal-framed building. Intense tree damage occurred in this area as well. At least one person was killed in the city. The tornado continued northeast and moved into Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where a Hampton Inn suffered severe damage. The tornado dissipated northeast of the town.[6]

On May 7, a tornado-driven Enhanced risk was issued across the Ohio Valley by the Storm Prediction Center. That afternoon, a strong, high-end EF2 tornado caused severe damage in Portage, Michigan. Later, another tornado prompted the issuance of a tornado emergency for Union City and Sherwood, the first tornado emergency ever issued in the state of Michigan. Other tornadoes were reported across Michigan along with Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Arkansas, and Pennsylvania through the overnight hours into May 8.[7][8][9] Later on May 8, more severe weather and tornadoes impacted much of the Middle Mississippi and Tennessee Valleys. PDS tornado warnings were issued for tornadoes near Equality, Illinois and Aurora, Missouri.[10] Multiple strong supercells hit Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. At 6:54 PM a tornado emergency was issued for parts of Marshall County, Maury County, Rutherford County, and Williamson County including Spring Hill, Tennessee, Chapel Hill, Tennessee, and Allisona, Tennessee. In the middle of the outbreak, the SPC issued a 15% hatched tornado risk for Southeastern Tennessee, Northwestern Georgia and North Alabama at 0100 UTC.[11] Two flash flood emergencies were issued for parts of Northern Tennessee after round of torrential rainfall battered the area. Later, another Supercell in Alabama caused a PDS tornado warning for the city of Huntsville, Alabama. That same supercell went on to produce another damaging tornado that sparked a tornado emergency for Henegar, Alabama, Hammondville, Alabama, and Mentone Alabama.

This large, violent EF4 tornado first touched down at 9:12 p.m CDT southeast of Hominy and moved northeastward. It snapped numerous trees and broke metal power poles with several areas of significant EF3 tree damage noted.[64] As the tornado approached Barnsdall, storm chaser reports of a large tornado and a large debris ball appearing on radar led to the issuance of a tornado emergency. The tornado inflicted severe damage to a wax plant on the southeast side of town, before moving into the east side of town, where numerous homes and a well-built, metal-framed building were heavily damaged or destroyed. One home sustained EF4 damage with high-end EF3 damage occurring elsewhere and trees were snubbed as well. One fatality was confirmed in the town.[9] Moving northeastward away from Barnsdall, the tornado continued to cause significant tree damage, damage homes, and destroy outbuildings. It then moved through the southern and eastern part of Bartlesville, where numerous homes and businesses, including a Hampton Inn, suffered severe damage. The parent supercell was then fully absorbed into a trailing squall line, which caused the tornado to dissipate northeast of the town. Preliminary information.[65]

Non-tornadic impacts

Strong straight-line winds blew a tree down on a car east of Lone Mountain, Tennessee, killing the driver.[10] One person was killed and another person was injured after a tree fell on a vehicle in Gaston County, North Carolina on May 8.[66] One occurred in Jackson County, Illinois, as a mobile home was shifted off its foundation and a trailer was flipped there,[67] while two people were injured after a warehouse had its roof collapse in Knox County, Tennessee.[68] Severe storms also forced a Major League Baseball game at Busch Stadium to be postponed until August 5.[69]

Impact

Amtrak's northbound Heartland Flyer was canceled on May 6 as a precautionary measure due to the high risk of severe weather issued by the Storm Prediction Center; retroactively, the southbound train for May 7 was also canceled.[70] Wolverine trains from the evening of May 7 to the early morning hours of May 8 were also delayed between Ann Arbor and Battle Creek, Michigan due to tornadic activity in the area.[71]
