What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Norman, OK (KOUN), launched 12:00Z, 6.3 hours before the alert went out and 88 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Skew-T log-p

Temperature in red, dew point in green, the mixed-layer parcel dashed.

THE UPPER LOW SHIFTS EAST INTO WEST TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON...SURFACE
LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP OVER FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...WITH A
SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDING INTO NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. THIS BOUNDARY WILL

SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA WITH ANY STORMS THAT CAN BECOME SURFACE BASED.

ADDITIONALLY...COLDER SURFACE TEMPERATURES HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO
FILTER INTO PARTS OF NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA AS OF LATE MORNING. AS A
RESULT...VERY BRIEF CHANGEOVERS TO LIGHT FREEZING RAIN AND LIGHT
SNOW HAVE BEEN OBSERVED AND MAY CONTINUE INTO THE AFTERNOON.
HOWEVER..NO ACCUMULATIONS OF SNOW OR ICE ARE EXPECTED INTO EARLY
AFTERNOON. THE TRACK OF THE SURFACE LOW ACROSS TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON
WILL ADVECT AIR JUST ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK BACK INTO AREAS THAT
HAVE HOVERED NEAR 32 DEGREES ACROSS NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA.

LATER TONIGHT...THE SURFACE LOW BEGINS TO PUSH SLOWLY EAST AND WILL
USHER BRISK NORTH WINDS ACROSS NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. AS THE COLDER AIR
CONTINUES TO WORK INTO THE REGION...PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO
TRANSITION TO SNOW AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY SNOW
INTO SATURDAY MORNING NORTH OF INTERSTATE 44. THE HEAVIEST SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED NORTHWEST OF TULSA NEAR THE
OKLAHOMA...KANSAS BORDER. PLEASE REFER TO THE LATEST STATEMENT
/OKCWSWTSA/ ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN TULSA
REGARDING THIS WINTER WEATHER EVENT.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
SATURDAY...WINTER WEATHER POTENTIAL...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL.
SUNDAY...NO HAZARDS.
MONDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
TUESDAY...NO HAZARDS.
WEDNESDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
THURSDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
AREAS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING ACROSS
PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA SATURDAY MORNING. AS THE UPPER LOW
BEGINS TO LIFT NORTHEAST OF THE AREA LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON...THE
SNOW IS EXPECTED TO TAPER OFF WITH ONLY A FEW LINGERING AREAS OF
LIGHT SNOW ACROSS NORTHWEST ARKANSAS SATURDAY EVENING.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT AS A
STRONG UPPER LOW MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. PRECIPITATION
CHANCES WILL CONTINUE WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK AS AN
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES ACROSS THE REGION IN NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT.

PERSONS SHOULD PREPARE FOR THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY SNOW LATE
TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY...PRIMARILY NORTHWEST OF TULSA ALONG
THE OKLAHOMA...KANSAS BORDER.

SEVERE WEATHER IS POSSIBLE ACROSS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND WEST
CENTRAL ARKANSAS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH A LIMITED
THREAT FOR TORNADOES ACROSS FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA.
