Severe Weather Could Bring Hail, Tornados To Oklahoma

Expect some wild weather in Oklahoma City from now until Tuesday evening.

Strong to severe storms are predicted to develop starting on Monday afternoon and into the evening, according to the National Weather Service's Norman office. The worst of the storm will be in the southwestern part of the state and towards the Texas panhandle, but hail and damaging winds will likely find their way towards Oklahoma City as well.

KOCO Meteorologist Jonathan Conder is reporting that Oklahoma City will likely see ping-pong sized hail that will come in two waves starting on Monday evening and into the overnight hours.

Oklahoma City has a "very low" potential of developing a tornado tonight, according to the NWS. The risk of a tornado is higher in western parts of the state.

Central Oklahoma is slightly at risk for flash flooding starting on Monday and into Tuesday afternoon. Anywhere from 2 to 4 inches of rain is predicted.

Rain is expected all week, but the chance of heavy rainfall will be lower starting on Wednesday.
