May 1957 storms any of you remember

[GnometownHero]

I was 5, school enrollment day for 1st grade in Hennessey. Superintendent told everyone to go home as the OHP said real bad storms were coming.
We spent the whole night in a flooded root cellar
I saw my 1st tornado that evening chewing up a wheat field and huge hailstones. Cimarron river flooded real bad. My dad lost his 52 Chevy in Dover in 5ft of water.
