The tornado outbreak of June 8, 1995 was a severe, localized outbreak in the Texas Panhandle and Western Oklahoma. It is most well known for the tornado that hit Pampa, along with the Allison F4, the Kellerville F4, and the Hoover F2. In total, 29 tornadoes were recorded during that day, with 23 being in Western Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle. In total, there were 3 F4s, and the tornadoes caused 11 injuries.

Meteorological synopsis

[edit]

An unusually high dewpoint of 22-23C caused extremely high CAPE values of over 5000 J/kg. The environment supported supercells, and with a large amount of shear and curvature in the hodograph, supercell development was supported.[1]
