What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Norman, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Jan 10, 3:09 PM CST, 13 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 10, 3:09 PM CST, 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Norman OK
309 PM CST Wed Jan 10 2018

.DISCUSSION...
Main focus was on strong winds, winter precipitation, and cold
temperatures/wind chills over the next 24-36 hours.

The mid and upper low/shortwave over New Mexico will continue to
move east into the panhandles this evening and NE across portions of
Oklahoma overnight within a longwave upper trough that will move
across the area Thursday. The shortwave tonight will bring a chance
of precipitation this evening across the NW third or so of the fa.
The precipitation this evening is expected to be rain showers and
possible a storm or two. A strong cold front is expected to move
into NW parts of the area overnight and arrive near the I-44
corridor around sunrise before making it through the rest of the fa
by late morning/early afternoon. Colder air will move into the
region behind this front causing falling temperatures during the day
Thursday for many locations. Precipitation chances will continue
across portions of the area Thursday but with colder air moving into
the region winter precipitation will be possible with primarily snow
but maybe some sleet mixed in before completely changing to snow.
The precipitation tonight into Thursday is expected to be light with
maybe some accumulations of up to half an inch possible in a few
locations and probably primarily on grassy and elevated surfaces.

Strong northerly winds are also expected behind the cold front with
wind gusts of 40 to around 55 mph possible across much of the fa.
A wind advisory will be issued for the entire fa starting
overnight/early Thursday for western portions of the fa and
continuing through the day. The rest of the fa will start Thu
morning and continue through early evening. Some severe wind
gusts (58+ mph) may be possible in western portions of the fa
Thursday but not certain about whether this will occur and how
widespread these gusts would be so will not issue a high wind
warning for now and let later shifts monitor.

The strong winds will also lead to other problems. Blowing snow
where snow occurs may make it look like heavier snow is falling and
may reduce visibilities a little. The winds combined with the colder
temperatures will also lead to cold wind chills (Teens & 20s)
Thursday afternoon and single digits Friday night. Elevated to near
critical fire weather conditions will also be a concern due to the
strong winds behind the front.

Friday into early next week...
Several re-enforcing shots of cold air will will be possible
Friday night into Saturday and then again Sunday night into
Monday. There are some model differences but there may be a chance
for precipitation in portions of the area next week.
