After a quiet and calm month in the Plains, Oklahoma, was hit by its first tornadoes of the season on Wednesday.

Several tornadoes touched down in parts of Oklahoma and Arkansas during Wednesday's evening rush hour. Fortunately, casualties were low as only one person died, but dozens of others were injured.

A tornado was spotted in Moore, an Oklahoma City suburb, which damaged multiple buildings and overturned several cars and trucks. However, the mayor in Moore, Glenn Lewis, described the twister as a "kind of like a junior tornado for us" compared to the massive tornado that ravished the region in 2013, reports The Associated Press.

Don Ruffin said he saw the twister while he was with a neighbor at a convenience store in far southeast Moore.

"I don't know how close it was to us, but it looked like it was coming toward us, and so we didn't take any chances," Ruffin said, according to Fox News. "We got in our vehicles, ran home and got in our shelters."

Another tornado moving through the Tulsa suburb of Sand Springs damaged about 60 buildings and tipped over mobile homes, said a spokesman for the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office, reports Reuters. As a result, one person was killed in a mobile home park by the tornado. In addition, about 28,500 homes and businesses had lost power in Tulsa County, The Associated Press reported. Plus, 30,000 in the Oklahoma City area were left without power.

Still, Tulsa County Undersheriff Tim Albin was grateful for the low casualty count.

"I'll tell you, when we got to pulling up on the scene you just thought we were going to be pulling a hundred bodies out of here," Albin said.

Tornadoes were also spotted in the Ozark Mountains of northwestern Arkansas. A waterspout over an Arkansas lake marked the first U.S. tornado in over a month.
