Abstract

Some accounts of meteorological conditions along the paths of these two severe tornadoes are described. Photographs of 3 centimeter radar of the Oklahoma A. & M. College sferics project show the development of a cyclonic protuberance out of the left rear quadrant of the radar echo similar to those previously observed in Illinois, Texas, and Massachusetts. Other similarities in the development of these tornadoes to the Massachusetts tornadoes of June 9, 1953, are pointed out. The average speed of radar echoes passing through the area of the tornadoes increases from 18 to 63 knots in a little more than one hour.
