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.
