Severe Weather Situation #007


This is Severe Weather Situation #007.
Severe Thunderstorms are forecast to occur this morning into this afternoon in the Oklahoma area.
At 8:09pm CDT... Radar detected thunderstorms developing in the Oklahoma Panhandle. The Weather Centre also indicated high Lifted Index values of -8 in a portion of Oklahoma (The 2nd image down).
A slight risk area has been warranted in the Oklahoma area due to the risk of these storms encountering this unstable atmosphere (First image).

Specific Concerns...
These storms are pop-up storms and will be hard to predict. However, unless you live in the area in the 2nd image down where the -8 circle is, you should be safe. But do keep an eye to the sky if you live in the -6 range.
