A storm that rolled through central Oklahoma on Monday left thousands without power, spawned a possible tornado and led to about a dozen high water rescues.
National Weather Service meteorologist John Pike said investigators were working to determine if a tornado struck Monday night in Logan County, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) north of downtown Oklahoma City.
Trees were down across Oklahoma City where Oklahoma Gas & Electric reported more than 46,000 customers lost power. Overall, the utility had more than 93,000 customers without electricity from central Oklahoma to western Arkansas. Some schools without power closed Tuesday.
Oklahoma City Fire Capt. David Macy said firefighters rescued a fisherman from Lake Overholser Dam who said he was trapped by rising waters. Macy said he was treated at the scene and released.
