Severe Weather Summary
Severe Weather for Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas in the Next 24 Hours
A strong storm is tracking out of New Mexico this morning; it will be over West Texas this evening and over eastern Oklahoma tomorrow morning. A frontal boundary extends from the storm across the Texas Panhandle to central Oklahoma, northern Arkansas and east-northeastward. Dew points in the 60s and 70s are feeding up to this frontal boundary. A tremendous rain and thunderstorm complex has been affecting northern Arkansas and southern Missouri; rain and thunderstorms are likely to continue today near the front. The highest risk of severe weather will be in West Texas, especially this afternoon into tonight. A very well-defined dry line is in place across far West Texas. As the upper-level dynamics from the Rockies storm heads eastward, strong to severe thunderstorms will fire up.
