Severe Thunderstorm Watch Issued Until 9PM

Brought to you by Club Pilates (SOMD)

The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, OK has issued a SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH for our entire region. This watch is in effect until 9PM Wednesday.

Primary threats this evening are:

  • Scattered damaging wind gusts to 60 mph
  • Isolated large hail to 1″ in diameter
  • Torrential rains leading to flash flooding

SUMMARY: Scattered pulse-severe storms will form through the afternoon in a broken band east of the Blue Ridge, and storms will drift eastward through this evening. The strongest updrafts may produce marginally severe hail, but the main threat will be occasional wind damage with downbursts.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS: A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce tornadoes.
