This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of northern...
western...central...and southern Oklahoma...and western north
Texas.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight...

.Fog...
Dense fog will persist across much of western and central Oklahoma
through mid-afternoon. Visibilities of a quarter of a mile or
less will be common.

.Freezing Precipitation...
Freezing fog and freezing drizzle will occur occasionally over
parts of northern and central Oklahoma through the afternoon.
Light icing of elevated surfaces is likely. Then, freezing rain
will be possible tonight across northern Oklahoma. During the
early morning hours of Thursday, freezing temperatures may move
into central Oklahoma before the precipitation ends, leading to a
chance of freezing rain. Light icing will be possible, especially
on elevated surfaces.

.Thunderstorms...
A few strong to severe storms are possible this afternoon and
tonight across portions of central and southern Oklahoma and
western north Texas.

Location...
A Slight Risk of severe storms is along and southeast of a line
from Seminole and Pauls Valley, to Duncan Oklahoma, to Wichita
Falls and Seymour Texas. A Marginal Risk is near and southeast of
a line from Ponca City to Enid to Cheyenne Oklahoma.

Timing...
The most likely time for severe storms will be before 2 am.

Impacts...
Hail up to the size of golf balls.
Wind gusts up to 65 mph.
There is a low potential for a tornado along and southeast of a
line from Holdenville to Duncan Oklahoma, to Seymour Texas.

Discussion...
Showers and thunderstorms will be possible across portions of the
area through early Thursday. Some of the storms could become
strong to severe, mainly producing large hail and strong wind
gusts. A stationary front will remain across portions of Oklahoma
and north Texas today. The highest potential for severe storms
this afternoon will likely be near and south of the the front. A
tornado also cannot be ruled out near the warm front, in parts of
southern Oklahoma and western north Texas, later this afternoon
and evening. This evening and early tonight, elevated severe
storms will be possible near and north of I-44, where large hail
and very heavy rain will be the main threats.

The potential for severe storms will diminish overnight, although
storms will remain possible across portions of the area into
early Thursday morning.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday...

No hazardous weather is expected at this time.
