Tornado outbreak of November 7–8, 1957

On November 7–8, 1957, a significant tornado outbreak affected portions of the Southern United States, particularly the Golden Triangle of Southeast Texas and parts of Acadiana in Louisiana.[nb 2] The severe weather event inflicted 14 deaths and nearly 200 injuries, especially in the vicinity of Beaumont and Port Arthur, Texas. The most significant tornado of the outbreak, posthumously rated F4 on the Fujita scale, killed one person, injured 81 others, and caused $2.5 million in losses.[nb 3] In all, at least 20 tornadoes were confirmed, yet others were likely present as well.

Background

On November 7, 1957, a potent trough passed over the Central United States. Meanwhile, a vigorous subtropical jet stream—possibly related to ongoing El Niño conditions—bearing winds of up to 120 knots (140 mph; 220 km/h) impinged on South Texas. By the evening, high levels of wind shear and atmospheric instability over Southeast Texas and adjourning portions of Louisiana were conducive to the formation of tornado-generating supercells; among these variables were CAPE values of up to 2,500 j/kg, high dew points that reached the lower 70s °F, precipitable water values of up to 1 34 in (44 mm), and deep-layer wind shear of up to 70 kn (81 mph; 130 km/h).[7]

This intense, long-tracked F3 tornado first touched down east of Drivers Store and immediately produce heavy damage to rural areas as it moved east-northeast. Damage here was severe over a 150 yd (140 m) wide swath before the tornado moved into Edgecombe County. Damage in Wilson County reached $250,000 and one person was injured.[68]

Once in Edgecombe County, the strong tornado continued to wreak havoc, damaging trees and structures as it moved east-northeast. The tornado hit the south and east sides of Crisp, producing more damage. It then crossed over the Tar River south of Old Sparta, and hugged the Edgecombe–Pitt County line. More damage occurred as the tornado passed between Conetoe and Bethel before the tornado moved into Martin County. Five people were injured and $250,000 in damage was inflicted in Edgecombe and Pitt Counties.[69]

After entering Martin County, the tornado took a very small left turn and began moving northeastward. It just barely missed Gold Point, with heavy damage occurring in the area. It then moved back into rural areas, crossing the Roanoke River into Bertie County, North Carolina. It then struck the town of Quitsna head on, severely damaging multiple structures. The tornado then moved back into rural areas, weakened, and dissipated west of Windsor. Throughout Martin and Bertie County, one person was injured and damages totaled $250,000.[70]

The F3 tornado was on the ground for an hour, traveled 46.9 miles (75.5 km), had a maximum width of 150 yards (140 m), and caused $750,000 in damage. Five people were injured. Along its entire path, the tornado destroyed or significantly damaged 18 homes and 23 farms, primarily near Rocky Mount and across the northern portion of Wilson County.[56][67][68][69][70]

Non-tornadic effects

Significant thunderstorm winds were recorded throughout the event as well.[71] On November 7, a 76 mph (122 km/h) wind gusts was recorded in Beaumont, Texas.[1] Two strong thunderstorm wind gusts of 75 mph (121 km/h) were recorded the next day in both Tuscaloosa, Alabama and the Raleigh-Durham International Airport in Raleigh, North Carolina as well.[72][73]

Notes

  1. All losses are in 1957 USD unless otherwise noted.
  2. An outbreak is generally defined as a group of at least six tornadoes (the number sometimes varies slightly according to local climatology) with no more than a six-hour gap between individual tornadoes. An outbreak sequence, prior to (after) the start of modern records in 1950, is defined as a period of no more than two (one) consecutive days without at least one significant (F2 or stronger) tornado.[2]
  3. The Fujita scale was devised under the aegis of scientist T. Theodore Fujita in the early 1970s. Prior to the advent of the scale in 1971, tornadoes in the United States were officially unrated.[3] While the Fujita scale has been superseded by the Enhanced Fujita scale in the U.S. since February 1, 2007,[4] Canada utilized the old scale until April 1, 2013;[5] nations elsewhere, like the United Kingdom, apply other classifications such as the TORRO scale.[6]
  4. All dates are based on the local time zone where the tornado touched down; however, all times are in Coordinated Universal Time and dates are split at midnight CST/CDT for consistency.
  5. Prior to 1994, only the average widths of tornado paths were officially listed.[12]
