Thursday Night Large Hail Risk, Especially Along/S Of I-40

3:10 PM CDT | April 30, 2025 - The break in Severe Weather will be short-lived after this evening. A fast-moving disturbance will kick off convection late in the day tomorrow in the High Plains. I would anticipate an extension of the Marginal Risk through the Oklahoma Panhandle. This activity will track east-southeast with an attendant risk for Large Hail and Strong/Damaging winds. Additional storms will develop in Southern Oklahoma, near the warm front, after midnight. Main hazard will be Quarter to Golf Ball-size Hail, followed by Damaging Winds to 65 mph. A brief Tornado or two cannot be ruled out. The risk will continue into Friday morning as activity shifts east and southeast.

10:00 PM CDT | June 17, 2025 - Multiple Tornado Warnings and Severe Thunderstorm Warnings are ongoing right now. 7:55 PM CDT | June 17, 2025 -   Going forecast looks good this evening. Primary area for Severe Weather over the next couple of hours will be in far Northern Oklahoma, where I have outlined in Red. This is where the greatest risk for Tornadoes will reside in the near term. There is a secondary area that will see an increased risk for Severe Weather, which I have highlighted in Yellow. This area of convection will impact areas along/N of I-40 to the west of Oklahoma City over the next 2-3 hours. This activity will track into the region which was pulsed by various radar sites multiple times earlier today.  Damaging Winds of 60-80 mph will be possible, as well as Large Hail and perhaps even a Tornado or two. 4:10 PM CDT | June 17, 2025 - A TORNADO WATCH is in effect until 10:00 PM for much of Northern/Western Oklahoma. Primary hazards will ...

Recap Of The June 17, 2025 Severe Weather Event

7:30 AM CDT | June 19, 2025 -  As I often do on here, I go back and see just how well a forecast verified. My analysis and forecasts are not conventional and take into account weather modification among other things. On Tuesday morning, I saw typical radar pulsing signatures targeting parts of Western Oklahoma. These appeared to be what they do ahead of storm development to locally charge the atmosphere through ionization. You can view those particular images in the previous post. By early afternoon, I had seen enough and took note that no chemtrails were being utilized in the hours ahead. The stage was being set for an area of locally greater severe potential along and north of I-40, from OKC and points west. I posted the following graphic, highlighting where I was concerned... As time went on, confidence increased, and it was apparent this would be a more likely area for Severe Weather outside of Northern Oklahoma, of course. Toward sunset, this was the situation... ...
