Large hail and locally damaging winds will be possible along with areas of heavy rain. Currently it appears the highest storm coverage and heaviest rains will be along and south of Intestate 40 through mid morning Tuesday. Recent rainfall has left soils saturated and quick onset flooding is possible in areas where the highest rainfall rates occur.

THURSDAY...No Hazards. FRIDAY through SUNDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... Thunderstorms may be ongoing early Tuesday with a risk of severe weather and heavy rainfall. Thunderstorm activity is likely to be less during the afternoon hours across the region which will allow strong instability to again spread northward. Storms are expected to develop across southern Kansas into northwest Oklahoma late in the day Tuesday and then spread south and eastward across eastern Oklahoma and possibly northwest Arkansas. These storms will have a risk of severe weather. Thunderstorms may continue into the day Wednesday before a brief lull in storm chances through Thursday. The active pattern returns for late week into next weekend with daily thunderstorm chances. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information.
