There was 2 of them in less than a minute!

Yeah, not much sleep last night what with the never ending light show, 2.5” inches of rain that I didn’t need or want, hail, and weather radio blaring every 5 minutes until I unplugged it lol.

There's a drought just to the west, the crazy rainfall will keep it away from you.

Gonna be leaving for Columbus in about an hour to see some friends and then hit the bars tonight so I doubt I'll be posting today... but I'll probably keep an eye on Radarscope.

Local chaser/photographer was on the tornado warned storm last night.  Hitchcock/Bonilla/Wessington all in the same area.  I saw the tornado labeled as all of them.

Side note:  Check his stuff out, it’s pretty good.

Mesoscale discussion for Western Minnesota & Eastern Dakotas has a "Watch Likely", could be a Tornado Watch.

 

And on the flip side, in the Western Dakotas, there's a Blizzard going on there. This could be the record books for the "Wildest Weather in the Dakotas".

Well apparently I'm going to the OU spring game now even though I don't really care about it, so that's about to take up most of my afternoon... Probably won't be able to post much after 3. HRRR still looking good for storms firing west of me around 5-6, moving through here around 7-8 with a second round tonight. Hopefully I can get something good, without any tors or hail.

NWS-Tulsa said possibly up to 3-5 inches for Central & Southern Oklahoma, highly dependent on when & where the boundary stalls for the training effect of the storms.

Oklahoma football plus you get to watch the clouds? Sounds like an amazing day

Oh it's gonna be a good day, always a good day when you're at a football game, even if its just a spring game

The best part is it's a guaranteed win for OU today 😂

First Tornado Watch of 2022 in Oklahoma?

 Mesoscale Discussion 0546
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0502 PM CDT Sat Apr 23 2022

   Areas affected...Southwest...Central...and Northeast Oklahoma

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely 

   Valid 232202Z - 232330Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

   SUMMARY...Supercells capable of large hail, damaging winds, and a
   couple tornadoes are possible this evening. Tornado watch likely.

   DISCUSSION...Regional surface observations depict a stalling dryline
   situated along a southwest to northeast oriented line from near
   Hobert to Okarche to Manchester, OK. East of this boundary, surface
   dew point temperatures are in the low 60s F, with an area of 64 F
   dew point temperatures entering south-central Oklahoma. Surface
   winds in the warm sector are sustained from the south near 20 kt,
   and KTLX VAD profiles show southerly flow increasing to near 40 kt
   at 1 km AGL, with substantial veering between 1-2 km AGL, indicative
   of a sickle-shaped hodograph. 

   Despite broken mid- to high-level clouds that continue to propagate
   over the region, the combination of modest convergence along the
   surface dry line and ascent from an approaching mid-level trough
   should lead to widespread convective development in the next 1-2
   hours. This evolution is supported by the latest high resolution CAM
   guidance. The thermodynamic/kinematic conditions should promote
   supercell modes to evolve, posing a threat for large hail, damaging,
   wind gusts, and a couple tornadoes. A tornado watch will likely be
   needed soon across the area in anticipation of these convective
   threats.

This supercell approaching OKC has pretty good structure, and has nothing out in front of it, the storms behind it probably won't interfere too much. This is the one I'm watching for now. Looks healthy, and OKC is a tornado magnet
