Areas affected...South-central Oklahoma

Concerning...Tornado Watch 141...

Valid 242040Z - 242215Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 141 continues.

SUMMARY...The greatest threat for very-large hail and tornadoes will
be in south-central Oklahoma over the next 1-2 hours.

DISCUSSION...A trio of supercells is moving southeastward into
south-central Oklahoma. Their motion should generally keep them
along and south of the surface boundary. The 19Z observed OUN
sounding showed mid-level lapse rates of 7.4 C/km and 52 kts of
effective shear. Very-large hail will be the primary concern with
these cells as the progress. 2+ inch hail has already been reported
in Seminole County earlier. A tornado threat will also exist given
the back surface winds and upper 60s F dewpoints.
