Local Weather History For March 2nd...
On the heels of another surge of arctic air, which was a fairly
common occurrence in the winter of 2013-2014, a strong upper level
storm approached the region. With temperatures primarily in the
teens, a mixture of snow, sleet, and freezing rain spread over
Oklahoma and northern Texas on this date in 2014. Because there was a
layer of relatively warm and moist air just above the arctic air,
scattered thunderstorms also developed. Although most of the storms
produced moderate to heavy sleet, a few actually produced hail, with
hail 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter observed just south and east of
Norman. Thunderstorms are not that rare in early March, but having
thunderstorms with surface temperatures in the teens is very rare. A
majority of the sleet and freezing rain accumulations were on the
light side but northern parts of Oklahoma received 3 to 5 inches of
snow.
