The National Weather Service said there were 16 unconfirmed reports of tornadoes touching down throughout the Central U.S. on Monday after forecasters issued the highest possible risk for the region.
In nearby Bartlesville, rescuers had to pull trapped individuals out of a Hampton Inn hotel. There was also significant damage reported in residential areas in northeast Bartlesville and medical facilities near Jane Phillips Hospital. Only minor injuries were reported in Bartlesville as of early Tuesday morning.
Although severe weather is expected to continue as the storm system moves east, it is not expected to be as widespread. The Storm Prediction Center placed much of Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio under an"enhanced risk" of severe weather, which is a Level 3 on the agency's 0-5 rating. Forecasters warn that the system can still produce large and damaging tornadoes in the Ohio Valley.
