How many F0 tornadoes has Oklahoma had from 1950 through 2012?

1950-2011 Oklahoma had 1362 recorded F0 or EF0 tornadoes. For 2012 so far there is a preliminary count of 4 EF0 tornadoes in 2012. Though this will likely go up as a number of recent tornadoes will likely be rated, and still more will come in from reports that were not initially published. It is important to note, however that prior to the 1990s a significant portion of tornadoes that would be rated F0 were missed, with the vast majority being missed through the 1970s. Because of this, the number of tornadoes of F0 strength that have occurred in Oklahoma is probably much higher.
