Month after tornado, cleanup continues in Oklahoma

To start with, Howard Dunsworth didn't have to open the door on his tractor to visit this week because every window in the machine was blown out by the tornado.

The dirt he was working Tuesday is a pad for a new barn, which will also contain living quarters.

Then there are the not-so-subtle signs on their land in northern Pottawatomie County, nestled between Dale and Bethel Acres.

Those include the mangled maroon Toyota 4Runner, a single north facing wall from what was an almost completed new home and a boxcar that was rolled and tossed about 600 feet northeast of where it started.

A month ago today, at least 31 tornadoes stomped through Oklahoma, including two EF-4s, four EF-3s and three EF-2s, according to the National Weather Service. Tammy Rider, 29, of Newalla, was killed near Rock Creek Road and Harrah-Newalla Road and Wilbern Patterson, 55, of Oregon, was killed near SE 59th and Peebly Road in Oklahoma City. Joanne Kay Ross, 65, of Harrah died Friday from complications from injuries suffered during the May 10 tornado outbreak. A woman also suffered a fatal heart attack while trying to get to a shelter.
