(Oklahoma City-AP) -- Small, short-lived tornadoes spun up unexpectedly, leaving damage across parts of central Oklahoma.

No injuries were reported, but the sudden twisters damaged a mobile home, pulled roofs off houses and downed power lines.

Forecasters had little warning for the tornadoes that came from storms that weren't severe and had no hail or lightning.

Lincoln County communications director Darrell Herd says barns near Agra were damaged.

Highway 66 was closed briefly so authorities could clear debris off the road.

Chandler Police say as many as three houses were destroyed.

Warwick, Carney and Parkland also sustained damage.

Heavy rain drenched central Oklahoma and 24 counties were under a flash flood watch.

The storms dumped 2.3-inches of rain on Waurika. Oklahoma City got 1.6-inches of rain.
