Oklahoma celebrated its 100th anniversary of statehood on November 16, 2007. To commemorate that anniversary, the National Weather Service compiled information on some of the most significant weather events that impacted Oklahoma during the state's first 100 years. From devastating tornadoes to crippling ice storms, from drought and the dust bowl years to floods, Oklahoma's weather is always changing, and always a topic of conversation. Join us in looking back at 100 years of Oklahoma's fascinating weather.

NWS Norman would like to thank the Oklahoma Climatological Survey for their data and assistance in compiling this historical data. We would also like to express our appreciation to the Oklahoma Historical Society for the use of their facilities and historical records.
