2011 and 2015 were busy years too, with 119 and 111 tornadoes respectively.

The slowest tornado year in Oklahoma was a decade ago when, in 2014, there were only 16 recorded in the state.

Back to 2024 now, the busiest months were April (56), May (54) and November (36). Those numbers for April and November set new records.
