SEVERE THUNDERSTORM.
RISK...Limited.
AREA... Southeast Oklahoma.
ONSET...After Midnight

DISCUSSION...
Isolated storms across southwest Oklahoma and north Texas this evening
may persist into portions of southeast Oklahoma later this evening and into

Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Likely.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
A cold front will move slowly across the region Friday
afternoon. Storms may develop along the front and conditions
will support severe weather potential. There continues to be
uncertainty on the overall coverage of storms along the front
and later forecasts will continue to adjust the overall severe
weather chances.

Saturday continues to appear a day where significant
severe weather is possible. Storms are likely to develop along
a dryline through central Oklahoma by late afternoon and track
eastward into easter Oklahoma and possibly western Arkansas
Saturday evening. Instability and wind shear profiles will
support supercells capable of significant severe weather through
Saturday evening.

moves across the region with the higher severe weather risk
focusing well north and east of the region.
