Tornadoes devastate northern Oklahoma

The National Weather Service issued a 'worst-case scenario' warning as the rotating column of air stayed on the ground for more than thirty minutes.

While no fatalities have been reported, at least a dozen people sustained injuries and dozens of structures were leveled.

Governor Kevin Stitt has pledged state support for the assessment and recovery efforts in Garfield County.

The storm system also triggered sirens at the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh, forcing some staff to seek shelter during the first round of selections.
