Storms are expected to form in the Oklahoma and Texas panhandle Thursday evening and spread east into Oklahoma and north Texas during the late evening and overnight hours. The main threat will be large hail and damaging winds, but there is the potential of tornadoes as well.

Severe weather may begin as early as 8 PM across western Oklahoma and western north Texas, although the most likely onset will be closer to 11 PM tonight. Storms will move northeast at 35 to 45 mph. Storms are expected to persist across southeastern Oklahoma as late as 8 AM to 9 AM Friday morning.

There is an enhanced risk of severe thunderstorms across a large portion of Oklahoma and north central Texas on Saturday, with at least a slight risk over the entire area on Saturday. Damaging wind gusts, large hail and tornadoes are all possible. The primary time of severe weather potential would be from 12 PM through the overnight hours until sunrise Sunday morning, but there is some potential of severe weather earlier before 4 PM Saturday.

A few severe thunderstorms are possible by Sunday afternoon into evening. Uncertainty in coverage and location remains, so check back!

Near critical fire weather conditions with gusty winds and low humidity are expected Thurday and Friday afternoons in western in northwest and west central Oklahoma. Fire weather conditions will be elevated across a broader area of western Oklahoma and western north Texas.
