Storms continue to move east after bringing hail to OKC metro

Below was a running blog from when severe storms moved across Oklahoma

NOW THAT IS IN SULFUR. IT IS NOW EAST OF SULFUR. STORM COMMAND IS IN SULFUR. SULFUR? YOU’RE FINE. THIS STORM EXPLODED AS IT MOVED THROUGH. SULFUR DOES NOT HAVE A TORNADO WARNING. NICK SMITH IS RIGHT THERE. HE’S KIND OF WHAT WE CALL HOOK SLICING. AND SO THE TORNADO IS GOING TO BE JUST TO HIS NORTHEAST. IF THERE WAS ONE. THIS DOES NOT HAVE A TORNADO WARNING, BUT IT DOES HAVE A LOT OF ROTATION. IS NOW EXITED MURRAY COUNTY. IT’S NOW IN JOHNSTON COUNTY. WE STILL HAVE A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING UNTIL 1015. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF THIS STORM GETS A TORNADO WARNING DOWN STREAM. THAT’S WHY I PUT A STORM TRACK THAT’S MOVING TOWARDS PONTOTOC CONNORSVILLE AND THEN BROMIDE AGAIN. THIS IS GOING TO BE JUST NORTH OF THE BLUE RIVER. SO WATCHING THAT VERY CLOSELY. OKAY, LET’S GO TO THE MAPS HERE. OKC. WE HAVE A 20% CHANCE THIS AFTERNOON. BUT HIGH CHANCES DOWN ACROSS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. BLUE MEANS ONE INCH HAIL. AND THEN YOU JUMP IT UP TO GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL IN ORANGE TORNADO RISK. VERY LOW FOR OKC FOR THE SULFUR DAVIS AREA. IT’S A TWO OUT OF TEN FOR LATER TODAY, BUT IT’S A FOUR FOR TEXAS FOR PLACES EAST TOWARDS DURANT. NOW I’M GOING TO JUMP INTO TOMORROW. IT’S A LEVEL TWO RISK AND IT HAS A LEVEL FOUR ON THE TORNADO INDEX OUT OF TEN. THAT’S FOR TOMORROW. SO COME BACK VISIT WITH DAMON LATER TODAY. I’LL BE BACK IN TOMORROW MORNING. WE’LL HAVE ALL THE UPDATED OUTLOOK, BUT I ALSO, AS WE GO INTO SATURDAY, PROBABLY SEEN A VERY SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER RISK FOR YOUR HOLIDAY WEEKEND. SHOULD BE A LITTLE BIT MORE QUIET FOR SUNDAY AND FOR MEMORIAL MEMORIAL DAY. AND THAT IS YOUR LATEST FIVE PLUS FIVE DAY FORECAST. SO AS YOU CAN SEE THERE ON YOUR FORECAST, WE HAVE A VERY BUSY SYSTEM HERE AHEAD OF US, A BUSY FEW DAYS. SO REMEMBER YOU DOWNLOAD OUR KOCO APP. YOU CAN STAY UP TO DATE ON THE LATEST WEATHER CONDITIONS. YOU CAN ALSO TRACK YOUR EXACT LOCATION SO YOU KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING IN YOUR AREA AND FIND OUT WHAT’S HAPPENING NEAR YOU. IT IS FREE TO DOWNLOAD ON ANY SMART DEVICE, BUT JONATHAN, WE’RE ABOUT TO BE REALLY BUSY HERE WITH SOME SEVERE STORMS THAT WE’RE TRACKING, SO WE GOT TO STAY WEATHER AWARE. YEAH, SO THERE WILL LIKELY BE A TORNADO WATCH FOR SOUTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA FOR THIS 95% CHANCE IN THE NEXT HOUR OR SO. FOR THE STORMS. I WAS JUST TRACKING. SO WE’LL BE WATCHING THAT THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON.
