National Weather Service confirms 7 tornadoes touched down in River Valley on June 6
WATCH ABOVE: Drone footage of the damage in Van Buren. (COURTESY: Charles Peek and the Weather Channel) TULSA, Okla. (KNWA/KFTA) — The National Weather Service confirmed June 10 that seven tornadoes touched down in Sequoyah County and Van Buren on June 6. The NWS says a line of severe thunderstorms moved across Sequoyah County and into west-central Arkansas. Damaging winds occurred along virtually the length of Sequoyah County. According to the NWS, an EF1 tornado formed near Mc Key in Sequoyah County and moved southeast before turning to the northeast and dissipating northwest of Sallisaw. Wind speeds hit 95 mph. The NWS says damage appeared to be confined to trees. An EF1 tornado hit Sallisaw with wind speeds up to 95 mph. It formed between North Wheeler Avenue and South Road 4640, north of East Road 1060. It headed east-southeast, crossing East Road 1060 near South Road 4650. The tornado traveled to South Road 4670 where it dissipated. Damage was primarily done to trees. An EF1 tornado with wind speeds of up to 90 mph formed near Liberty in Sequoyah County. It formed in the western sections of the community. The tornado traveled near and just south of East Road 1060. Minor damage was done to the roof of the community's school, and a power pole was damaged. Many trees were damaged. Some trees were uprooted. Van Buren tornado from June 6 rated EF-1, 2 other brief tornadoes reported Van Buren was hit by three tornadoes. An EF0 tornado hit the city with wind speeds of 85 mph. The tornado developed just west of the Arkansas River south of Interstate 540 in an open area and traveled across the Arkansas River to the Port of Van Buren. The tornado damaged a fabric and metal storage shelter and the roof of a nearby building. It dissipated as it left the port area. An EF1 tornado with wind speeds between 95 mph and 105 mph touched down in southeast Van Buren near South 4th Street and Wood Street. The tornado moved rapidly northeast into the area just south of the Baptist Health-Van Buren complex. A commercial building was damaged, along with multiple homes on Ozier Street, Mulberry Street and South 19th Street. Winds blew in the walls that contained windows of two homes. One home lost its entire roof and the other lost a large portion of its roof. The tornado quickly dissipated, lasting a little more than one minute. Another EF0 tornado hit Van Buren with 85 mph wind speeds. It traveled near the Union Pacific Railroad line north of Kibler Road and west of Shibley Road. The tornado damaged trees and passed over homes. The NWS says damage to structures appeared to be limited. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Tornado count creeps higher, record already set
The spring severe weather season spilled into the month of June in Missouri and Arkansas, with more tornadoes added to this year's tornado count. The preliminary number in Missouri stands at 115. This is second in the nation! And this is a new yearly record for Missouri, topping 106 tornadoes in 2006. In Arkansas, the count stands at 54. The record year was 1999 with 107 tornadoes. Texas leads the nation at 136, but this shouldn't be a surprise given its size relative to other states. Tornado concentrations this year have been outside of the more traditional tornado hotspots like Tornado Alley, which runs from the Dakotas south to Texas, and Dixie Alley, which runs from Louisiana to Georgia north into Kentucky. This year's tornadoes have focused from Southeast Missouri and Northeast Arkansas east into Southern Illinois and Western Kentucky. Why? Well, this year, the timing and intensity of storm systems early in the season led to big outbreaks in the same spots. Remember the windstorms back in March. The wind was driven by deep areas of low pressure that moved through the region. That wind energy helps drive severe weather as well if there's enough instability and thunderstorms develop. The pattern remained consistently active through April and the middle of May. This also contributed to big rain totals across the region, with nearly two feet of rainfall falling in Springfield from April through May. Looking ahead, it appears we're transitioning to more of a summer pattern as the jet stream, or storm-organizing winds, shift further north. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Tornado confirmed in upstate NY with 110 mph winds: Here's where it touched down
The National Weather Service in Buffalo has confirmed that a tornado touched down Monday afternoon in the towns of Great Valley and Humphrey in Cattaraugus County. The Weather Service survey team confirmed that an EF-1 tornado touched down at 5:37 p.m. between U.S. Highway 219 and Farm Market Road and continued northeast for approximately 2.4 miles. The twister reached an estimated peak wind of 110 mph and maximum width of 600 yards, according to the Weather Service. The twister was on the ground for approximately four minutes. Footage of the area shows several heavily damaged houses - including several now without a roof - garages and barns that were flattened and debris strewn across lawns and roads. Some large tractor trailers and campers were also overturned. Hundreds of trees toppled - some snapped midway up the trunk and others were uprooted entirely. One entire hillside showed trees sheared off mid-trunk for hundreds of yards. According to the report, as the tornado traveled northeast, damage became more severe. Several homes, garages, and structures near the intersection of Sugartown Road and Farm Market Road, Haines Hollow Road and Bonnie Way "either had the full loss of the structure, loss of significant roofing material, or the loss of some of the walls in the upper portion of the structure," according to the report.
