Severe thunderstorms are possible from Friday afternoon into early Saturday. Large hail, damaging wind gusts, and locally heavy rainfall/flooding are the main hazards.

Severe weather is possible from Friday afternoon into early Saturday. Here is a look at the approximate timing of this risk across portions of Oklahoma and western-north Texas.

A cold front will arrive later today and slowly progress south and east. Strong to severe storms, along with heavy rainfall, appear likely late Friday and into Saturday morning - especially across parts of east-central and southern Oklahoma and western north Texas. Widespread rainfall of 1" to 2" is possible.

Cooler temperatures, along with mostly dry weather, is expected this weekend behind the passage of a cold front.

Forecast for the next 7 days.

We set monthly temperature records for the second straight month in March. This continues the pace of extremely unusual warmth dating back to early last fall.
