Our long range computer models continue to paint the possibility for severe weather on Saturday. A potent negatively tilted trough will swing our way by the upcoming weekend; moreover, the dynamics involved in this system seem to be capable of supporting rotating supercell thunderstorms, which may include a decent tornado threat. Moisture on Thursday and Friday will easily stream in from southerly winds off of the gulf of Mexico, setting the stage for elevated storms before the main show on Saturday. Dewpoints could reach the 60's......All the ingredients look to come together by Saturday.

We still feel a strong jet streak by Saturday afternoon will ignite the dry line across central Oklahoma. These storms will race NE during the evening, so we'll be challenged chasing these storms as they move across eastern Oklahoma. I wouldn't be surprised to see storms moving over 40 mph! Tis the season......

Now is the time to talk with your family about your severe weather safety plan. The dinner table is a great place to make your plan. Seconds do count in severe weather, so please make sure everybody is clear on what to do if the weather turns severe!
