The May 2003 tornado outbreak sequence was a series of tornado outbreaks that lasted from April 30 until May 11, 2003. Since the event consisted of several storm systems it cannot be considered a single outbreak, but nor can the outbreaks be considered completely separate since there was not significant break in tornado activity. It produced approximately 400 tornadoes, of which 45 were "significant," earning a rating of F2 or higher. Six of those tornadoes were strong enough to be rated F4, the second highest rating possible. One of the F4 tornadoes struck the Oklahoma City area, following a path similar to that taken by an F5 tornado than hit the area in 1999, one of several to do so in the past 16 years.
