TIMELINE: Saturday storm threat includes risk for flooding, hail, tornadoes
Another round of storms is expected to move into Oklahoma on Saturday, following two days of severe weather.
We are tracking that next round of showers and storms that could possibly turn severe. Thanks for joining me on the K O C O mobile app as well as K C O dot com. I’m meteorologist Taylor Cox. Let’s talk about that risk for today. We have *** marginal risk here highlighted in green for south of I 40 including southern Oklahoma City, Moore and Norman all the way to the west into hot to the east and Seminole and mcallister. Some of the biggest risks with this will be that flood potential. We saw flooding last night. We could once again see it today, we have *** flood watch here highlighted in green that goes from today into tomorrow including Oklahoma City by 35 anyone down to the south. So let’s take *** look at the timing for your showers and store today. Showers could be on and off today. But the better chances to see those strong to severe storms will be into the afternoon hours after lunch time. So here we are mid afternoon, you can see some of these isolated, stronger storms coming in with some heavy rain associated with it. Hail also possible with some of these storms as they move up to the north, closer to dinner time, the risk goes down significantly the farther north these storms go and the later in the day it is. So as we go into the overnight hours after the sun sets those storms out to the east and that risk *** lot lower. Let’s take *** look at the biggest hazards. I mentioned that flooding hazard mainly through central and southern Oklahoma as far north as still water and into Enid are the areas that we’re watching for the most for that flood issue. But we still have other concerns on the board here. Half dollar sized hail is possible, wind up to 60 MPH. Also possible. And that tornado risk it’s low, but it is on the board mainly for southern Oklahoma. We have *** risk *** two, *** level two on *** scale of 10. So it is low but it’s still on the board. So you got to stay aware. Of course, we’ll have more details online at K dot com. And tonight on.
