| episode_narrative | A strong surface low pressure moved across the southern and central Plains causing strong sustained surface winds across the western half to two-thirds of Oklahoma with some high wind gusts. National Weather Service weather stations along with the Oklahoma mesonet measured sustained wind speeds ranging from 17 to 30 knots (20-35 mph) on November 27th into the 28th, with numerous wind gusts ranging from 39 to 56 knots(45-65 mph). Winds were initially strong from the south to west then shifted to the north and northwest behind a cold front. The winds began to decrease during the afternoon hours of November 28th as the strong surface low continued to lift away from the area. Wind damage was reported in several locations along with numerous power outages. The strong winds also combined with very dry conditions to help with the start and spread of several wildfires. Some fires may have been started by power lines arcing or even coming down in the high winds. The wildfires ranged from a few hundred acres to a few thousand acres some of which for several days. Many fire fighters and resources from the local, state, and federal levels were used to fight these fires. Many structures, hay, pasture, etc. were destroyed by the fires. Some residents were evacuated due to a few of the fires. Several people were injured at various fires. |
