Oklahoma Braces for Storms with Hail and Wind Damage Potential

Severe Storms Roll into Oklahoma Overnight

Oklahoma is bracing for strong thunderstorms as they move into the region Saturday evening into the early hours of Sunday, following a brief break from severe weather.

Meteorologists from KOCO 5 reported that thunderstorms will impact several counties, including northeastern Kingfisher, southwestern Noble, Logan, western Payne, and southeastern Garfield, with possible gusts up to 60 mph and quarter-sized hail. Areas such as Guthrie, Coyle, and Cimarron City are expected to bear the brunt of these storms, with warnings in effect until around 2:15 a.m. Sunday.

The National Weather Service (NWS) issued multiple severe thunderstorm warnings, indicating the potential for damaging winds and hail across northern and central Oklahoma. A severe thunderstorm watch, covering a large part of the state, remains in effect until 9 a.m. on Sunday. Residents in areas like Stillwater and Cushing are urged to remain vigilant as the storms are expected to advance southeastward, reaching the Oklahoma City metro area after 10 p.m. Saturday.

Despite the presence of tornado risk, which has been rated as moderate at 2 out of 10, forecasters highlighted damaging winds of 60-70 mph as the primary concern. While large hail is considered less common, some supercells could produce hail up to golf ball size.

The storms are projected to move out of southern Oklahoma by 2 a.m. Sunday, leaving clearer skies in their wake. However, additional severe weather threats may return as early as next week. Residents are encouraged to download the KOCO 5 app for timely alerts and updates on this rapidly evolving weather situation.
