NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0130 AM CDT MON JUN 22 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA
CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 372...
VALID 220630Z - 220830Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 372
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...AN INTENSE BOW ECHO WILL CONTINUE MOVING RAPIDLY SOUTHEAST
ACROSS CENTRAL OKLAHOMA, INCLUDING THE OKLAHOMA CITY METRO, AND INTO
SOUTH-CENTRAL OKLAHOMA THROUGH 3:30 AM CDT. SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WIND
GUSTS, WITH PEAK WINDS BETWEEN 85 AND 100 MPH, ARE LIKELY.
DISCUSSION...AN INTENSE BOW ECHO, WITH A WELL-ORGANIZED REAR-INFLOW
JET, CONTINUES MOVING RAPIDLY SOUTHEAST AT AROUND 45 MPH, WITH A
HISTORY OF SIGNIFICANT SEVERE GUSTS EXCEEDING 100 MPH. THE
ENVIRONMENT DOWNSTREAM OF THIS CONVECTIVE SYSTEM REMAINS SUPPORTIVE
OF A CONTINUED SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WIND EVENT, WITH A VERY MOIST AIR
MASS CONTRIBUTING TO MUCAPE IN EXCESS OF 3000 J/KG AND MODERATE
WEST/NORTHWEST MID-LEVEL FLOW. LATEST HI-RES GUIDANCE SUPPORTS THE
SCENARIO OF AN INTENSE BOWING COMPLEX MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL
OKLAHOMA THROUGH 3:30 AM CDT/0830Z, WITH SOME INCREASE IN THE
LATERAL EXTENT OF THE STRONG WINDS AS THE COLD POOL EXPANDS. IN
ADDITION TO WIDESPREAD SEVERE WINDS, THE ENVIRONMENT WILL CONTINUE
TO SUPPORT SHORT-LIVED LEADING EDGE CIRCULATIONS AND AN ATTENDANT
TORNADO RISK.
