Does anyone remember this?  I don't seem to, but it would be hard to fake this, I'd think.

NCDC does. 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.

I remember that storm (amazing, huh?) because of the small localized, but intense damage, but did not see the video before.  Whew!!  Wild ride.
