WINDY WINDY WINDY Is what we are talking about this time around!!!

Gusts near 60 mph with the storms and heavy rainfall. But first take a look at what was going on in Oklahoma this afternoon. Here are a few reports of some wild weather.

1.75" Inch Hail. Hail bigger then golf balls in ANADARKO IN CADDO COUNTY

Even Hail reported the size 2.75" inches in GUTHRIE IN LOGAN COUNTY And in a lot of other areas. Some hail was reported of doing damage to car windows. Some wild weather they where having and on top of that Two Tornadoes was reported one in OK, and the next just a few ago in TX,. Here is the reports below.

Now for our weather and our main things to watch.
I have gone through the latest maps again and I still like the forecast. I still think the worst will stay to our south and the heavy rainfall will miss us. However we can expect rainfall around 1.25 with the slight chance for rain to reach 1.30" inches. We will watch this closely. Now main things we will really need to be watching is HIGH WINDS This is the Big part of this storm. We could see gusts to 55 mph or higher by tomorrow. Now with the models I have I'M looking for the highest winds coming in between 11:am and 7:pm tomorrow. And as with any storm Lightning will be a thing to watch as well. Here is the chances for Hail Tornadoes and Wind I have posted below.

Tornadoes we will keep at 2%

Hail We will keep at 15%

Winds a good chance at 30% This being the main cause.

Remember this high of winds can do a LOT of damage so anything that can get picked up you should store away in the garage and tie down while you can. I still look for the storms to move into our area after midnight closer to 1:am tonight. This will be a long night for all weather lovers.

Stay tuned and stay safe..........
