The first tornado warning ever issued in the United States was sent out for the Tinker Air Force Base area on March 25, 1948, shortly before an F3 tornado hit the ...
Debris flow channel scoured out by the passage of a debris flow. A flow is a spatially continuous movement in which surfaces of shear are short-lived, closely spaced, and usually not preserved. The distribution of velocities in the displacing mass resembles that in a viscous liquid.
During the day, two areas of low pressure developed along the trough: one over the north-central plains and the other over Oklahoma. A large plume of steep mid-level lapse rates accompanied by deep moisture (with dew points in some areas exceeding 70 °F (21 °C)) spread across much of the central and southern plains into the Mississippi River ...

Landslides, also known as landslips, or rockslides, [3] [4] [5] are several forms of mass wasting that may include a wide range of ground movements, such as rockfalls, mudflows, shallow or deep-seated slope failures and debris flows. [6] Landslides occur in a variety of environments, characterized by either steep or gentle slope gradients, from ...
