It was a 70kt thunderstorm wind that "damaged four airplanes at Tulsa International Airport and broke out car windows." It caused about $500,000 in damage.
It shortly followed a tornado just southwest of the airport, which "severely damaged a hotel near the airport injuring seven people, damaged covered parking at the airport, snapped trees, and turned over a sports utility vehicle at the airport" and damaged seventy-five other cars, causing $250,000 in damage.

There was a longer thread, and a better, unedited copy of the surveillance cam video at one time.

Found the link to the TW article..guess they categorized it afterwards as an F1 tornado. Pretty weird stuff. http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?no=subj&articleid=060403_To_A1_Small15216&archive=yes Title: Re: 2006 microburst at TIA Post by: heironymouspasparagus on July 26, 2010, 09:56:49 pm I remember that storm (amazing, huh?) because of the small localized, but intense damage, but did not see the video before. Whew!! Wild ride.
