This is a Special Weather Statement to aid in the Rescue and recovery efforts in central Oklahoma.
Through 230 am... storms across southern Oklahoma have shifted off to the east... with new updrafts developing across Pottawatomie... Seminole... Pontotoc and Hughes counties. This activity is expected to hold south of the okc Metro/Newcastle- Moore recovery operation through the early morning. Surface analysis shows a more well defined cold front from northwestern Oklahoma southwest through western North Texas. Through sunrise... there could be some additional development along this line... but overall... it appears in the near term... the weather will remain quiet. Of the storms that do develop across south central OK this morning... a few may reach severe limits... but the majority will stay below... with gusty winds and small hail.
Additional storms will develop tomorrow afternoon... possibly as far northwest as the Interstate 44 corridor... including the Oklahoma City and Moore areas. Some of these storms may be severe. We will be working overnight to refine tuesday's severe weather forecast.
