'Unheard-of' Storm Brings Months of Rain to 2 States

Story by Anna Skinner, May 5, 2025

"An 'unheard-of' storm has flooded parts of southern Oklahoma and northern Texas after dumping 14 inches of rain in some cities over seven days.

"Two cities in #Oklahoma and one in #Texas broke their April rainfall records after receiving months' worth of rain during the unusually wet spring storms.

"The record levels come after more than a week of rain brought a deluge to parts of Oklahoma and Texas. Although the heavy precipitation helped remedy drought across the region, it also sparked severe impacts, including rising river waters that have now been flooding for more than a week.

"Weather warnings of dangerous #floodwaters remain in place across the region, with some not expiring until 'further notice.' The floodwaters have endangered livestock, closed roads, and inundated #farmland."
