The eyes have it




Urgh! (Okie to English translation: "Ugh!"). It's another one of "those" spring
days in Oklahoma. You know, one of "those" days where you keep your eye to the
sky, your ear to the weather radio, and your TVs tuned to your favorite media
weather source. I guess if you're watching TV, you can't keep an eye on the sky.
If you can, I guess that'd make you Marty Feldman (google, youngsters...start with
"Young Frankenstein" and go from there). Just do the best you can, okay? The
area in peril today would appear to be right around I-44 and east of I-35. Here
are the rest of the outlooks from SPC. The biggest threat appears to be big
hail and severe winds, but again that tornado threat does exist.







Here's a bit of a better look from our friends at the Tulsa NWS office.



Again, all modes of severe weather are possible for the eastern half of the
state, but especially across SE OK.

Western Oklahoma will just get plain old wind with the front that's
coming through. What else is new?
