   URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
   Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 329
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1000 PM CDT Sun May 25 2025

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     Central and Eastern Oklahoma
     North and Central Texas

   * Effective this Sunday night and Monday morning from 1000 PM
     until 500 AM CDT.

   * Primary threats include...
     Scattered large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter likely
     Scattered damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 80
       mph possible
     A tornado or two possible

   SUMMARY...Two separate bowing segments are currently ongoing, one
   over southwest Oklahoma and the other over the Texas Big
   Country/northwest Texas. Both of these systems are expected to
   continue east-southeastward over the next several hours into the
   warm and moist airmass downstream over central/eastern Oklahoma and
   north/central Texas. Damaging gusts are the primary risk with these
   developing line segments, and a few isolated significant gusts (i.e.
   over 75 mph) are possible. Isolated large hail could also occur,
   particularly with any more cellular development ahead of the line
   over eastern OK. Additionally, the overall tornado threat appears
   low, but a brief line-embedded circulation cannot be entirely ruled
   out.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 70
   statute miles east and west of a line from 40 miles southeast of
   Stephenville TX to 30 miles north of Durant OK. For a complete
   depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
   (WOUS64 KWNS WOU9).

   PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

   REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
   favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
   Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
   weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
   warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
   tornadoes.
