Actually, I missed that watch. Wagoner County not included, but still close enough.

Last time May 20 fell on a Monday an EF 5 hit Moore, OK. in 2013. I am currently in Moore, OK. Be safe everyone in the area.

PDS Tornado Watch # 199 is coming for Oklahoma. This is only the second watch in SPC history where every category of watch probabilities (torn, wind, hail) are at greater than 95%. The only other watch like this was issued for Alabama on 27 April 2011.
You never want to share company with April 27.

It was a 45% hatched on 4/27 too to highlight the potential today.
That day still sets itself apart from a forecasting perspective because of the >95% chance of all severe modes in one of the PDS watches. I'm curious if today will come close to that.
Welp...there goes that record.

Wind has picked up here at the house. Seems like the wind has shifted a bit and is coming from the south east now.

For OKC it may be their channel 9 news station. It is the sister station to News on 6 in Tulsa and both stations have helicopters they put in the air during storms that usually have great shots. They also have their own storm chasers on the ground.

What is it about May 20th in Oklahoma?

Man I miss Dr. Greg Forbes for events like this. I'll never forget when he said oh boy we have a debris ball when the tornado hit Tuscaloosa.

I would imagine we're only a half hour or so from our first tornado warnings of the day. Those cells near Lubbock look worrisome.

James Spann was calling his own tornado emergencies that day... he wasn't waiting for the NWS to put them out

I am really hoping these little showers that keep rolling over us help keep our temps down for a while and keep us covered in clouds. That is probably the only hope we have and that may not be very much hope at all.

that storm east of Lubbock has exploded and is now severe thunderstorm warned.

Yea I know...but for my sanity I am going to keep telling myself that. I think it may matter more for us being on the eastern side of the state, but could be wrong.
