What happened
The episode as NWS OUN wrote it up.
Several thunderstorms developed just after sunset on April 28 along and near a stationary front from southwest to northeast Oklahoma. The most significant storms were supercells which affected central Oklahoma between 9:30pm and midnight. The first and most intense supercell tracked from near Weatherford to El Reno to Oklahoma City, yielding numerous reports of half dollar to golfball size hail. Another tracked just south of the first path, from near Cordell to El Reno, with a few 1.00 hail reports. A third supercell tracked from near Watonga to Perry with reports of 1.00 hail. By 1:00am on April 29, the storms had largely merged into a complex that moved northeast through the overnight hours.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK COVERS NORTHERN...WESTERN...
CENTRAL...AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA...AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS.
.DAY ONE...REST OF TONIGHT...
THUNDERSTORM OUTLOOK...
THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT ACROSS MUCH
OF OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS.
LOCATION...
THE SLIGHT RISK AREA INCLUDES ALL OF WESTERN NORTH TEXAS AND THAT
PORTION OF OKLAHOMA NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM ARDMORE TO ADA TO
HOLDENVILLE.
TIMING...
THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THROUGH EARLY
SUNDAY MORNING.
IMPACTS...
HAIL TO THE SIZE OF TENNIS BALLS AND WIND GUSTS TO 70 MPH. VERY
HEAVY RAIN WILL ALSO BE A CONCERN OVERNIGHT.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS...
STORM SPOTTER GROUPS AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL ACROSS THE
RISK AREA SHOULD PLAN FOR SEVERE WEATHER OPERATIONS THROUGH SUNDAY
MORNING.
DISCUSSION...
A STATIONARY SURFACE FRONT EXTENDING ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHWESTERN
OKLAHOMA THIS EVENING WILL BEGIN TO LIFT NORTH LATER TONIGHT. A CAP
IN PLACE OVER THE REGION HAS HAMPERED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT EARLY
THIS EVENING. HOWEVER... LIFT IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE DURING THE
LATTER HALF OF THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT AS THE LOW LEVEL JET
STRENGTHENS. THIS WILL LEAD TO SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS... ESPECIALLY IN AREAS NORTH OF THE FRONT ACROSS PARTS
OF CENTRAL AND NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY BE
ELEVATED. HOWEVER... ENOUGH INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED TO EXIST OVER
THE REGION FOR SOME OF THE STORMS TO BECOME STRONG TO SEVERE. LARGE
HAIL AND STRONG WIND GUSTS WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERNS WITH ANY SEVERE
STORM.
THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY
MORNING.
PROBABILITY TABLE...
VALID THROUGH 700 AM CDT SUNDAY APR 29.
PROBABILITY OF THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING IN THE
NWS NORMAN COUNTY WARNING AREA...100 PERCENT.
PROBABILITY OF SEVERE STORMS IF STORMS OCCUR...50 PERCENT.
OTHER HAZARDOUS WEATHER...
VERY HEAVY RAIN AND TRAINING OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE
OVERNIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. THIS COULD LEAD TO FLOODING...
ESPECIALLY IN LOW-LYING AND FLOOD PRONE AREAS. THE BEST CHANCE
FOR LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL BE IN PARTS OF CENTRAL AND NORTHERN
OKLAHOMA.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
THUNDERSTORM OUTLOOK...
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LIKELY AGAIN ON SUNDAY AND THE CHANCE OF
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST. ALTHOUGH THE COVERAGE OF SHOWERS
AND STORMS WILL DECREASE ON MONDAY... THERE WILL AGAIN BE A RISK OF
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.
OTHER HAZARDOUS WEATHER...
WITH WIDESPREAD RAIN EXPECTED AND STORMS PRODUCING LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL... SOME FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE SUNDAY AND MONDAY.
THE NEXT SCHEDULED HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK WILL BE ISSUED AT 5 AM
SUNDAY.
