Description

Severe storms brought damaging winds, torrential rain and flooding to Kansas and Oklahoma on October 13–14, 2026, leaving creeks and rivers rising as additional rainfall threatened already saturated areas. From Wichita's flooded streets to life-threatening flooding in Oklahoma City, the storm system created dangerous conditions across the central United States. In Kansas, the National Weather Service issued flood alerts across south-central and southeastern counties as Slate Creek and the Chikaskia River rose above critical levels. A possible tornado was reported near Hardtner, close to the Oklahoma border, while heavy rain flooded roads and forced drivers to confront hazardous crossings. The tornado report remains unconfirmed in the available information. Oklahoma City recorded several inches of rain, with even higher totals in parts of western Oklahoma. Emergency crews searched near Lightning Creek after reports that a man may have drowned. Meanwhile, a powerful cold front is bringing sharply colder temperatures, raising concerns about frost and freezing conditions for farmers in western and central Kansas. In this video, we examine the flooding threat across Kansas and Oklahoma, the possible tornado near Hardtner, the weather conditions behind the repeated storms, and the incoming cold that could threaten crops and sensitive plants. Global Weather covers natural disasters and extreme weather events as they develop, using sourced reporting and avoiding unsupported speculation.
