So much better!
So much better!
What an unreal couple days in the Texas panhandle for chasing slow-moving tornadic supercells. This is the stuff I use my PTO for

Multiple tornadoes, including mobile mesonet circuit west of Roaring Springs, out on #LIFT today. Great day for data collection on our first 2025 deployments with the TTU crew!
On-and-off chances of showers/storms into the weekend. Severe threat is thankfully low (marginal wind/hail). Localized flood threat
Monday's severe threat isn't a slam dunk, but parameters are high IF storms break the cap. Evening/night arrival
Storms more likely Tuesday. Severe possible.

Chances for showers/storms will go up mid/late week. Severe weather can't be ruled out (it's April), but the widespread threat doesn't look very high
That said, we'll monitor any outflow boundaries and subtle small scale features that could bump up a localized severe threat

Terrific Tuesday?! I think so!
Outdoor plans... are a go!
#Tulsa #okwx #kswx
Be mindful, we may have low visibility in spots with patchy fog in Monday morning, but gonna be an AWESOME start to the week!! π
Storm chances go up by early Wednesday and stay into Friday. Locally heavy rain, probably some severe weather too, but nothing high-end
#Tulsa #okwx
FRI EVE - SAT AM: Severe storms likely. Localized flooding
SAT PM/Night: Severe storms mostly southeast, but all of us see rain and storms. Flood threat
EASTER SUNDAY AM: Storms chances remain, and may have a window for severe weather too if the system is slow to clear. Dry PM
SUNDAY: Still monitoring timing. Highest chance for showers and storms will be in the morning with windy, cool, drier conditions in the afternoon
If the system is slower, there may be a window for severe weather in SE OK, but if it's faster, no need to worry
No severe weather is expected in Tulsa
SATURDAY: Cold front will continue to push south with chances of showers and storms for all of us, but the potential for a few severe storms will be highest near/south of the front. Right now it appears the front will end up south of I-44. Cooler temps north of the front.
#okwx
Severe storms are looking likely Friday evening into very early Saturday AM with mostly a wind (60-70mph) and hail (up to golf ball size) threat
The tornado threat is lower, but not zero. Heavy rain may lead to some localized flood concerns as well
#Tulsa #okwx #kswx
Despite the cool morning, expect a windy and warm Wednesday!! Highs ranging from mid 70s to low 80s. South wind gusts of 30-35 mphπ¬οΈπ¬οΈ
I would not rule out the chance of a few isolated showers and storms Wednesday into Wednesday night. Most of us stay dryβ‘οΈβ‘οΈ
#Tulsa #okwx #kswx
Severe storms likely Friday evening/night. 5pm - 7pm initiation. Wind and hail threat. Can't rule out a tornado or two
Saturday is dependent on where the front lines up. Near/south of the front = severe threat
Easter is all timing. Slow timing, severe is in play. Fast timing, severe stays east

The American people:
A warm up with strong/gusty south winds through the weekend! Wind may turn southwest Sunday PM giving temps a boost to the warmest so far in 2025 π₯΅
Next storm chance arrives mid next week with higher chances north and lower chances south β‘οΈ
#Tulsa #okwx #kswx
After a "cooler" Friday, we'll warm up with gusty south winds into the weekend! π¬οΈπ€οΈπ
For allergy sufferers the tree pollen remains high, and we'll likely remain somewhat smoky Friday with a light north wind and numerous controlled burns to our north

AWESOMENESS ππ
#Tulsa #okwx
One year ago today, had the honor to cover the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse from Russellville, Arkansas.
Totality is one of the most amazing and surreal experiences, and itβs hard to describe to those who havenβt witnessed it. Many find it surprisingly emotional as well.
#totalsolareclipse
GORGEOUS stretch of weather this week! ENJOY! π
NO severe weather concerns in the near future π€οΈ
#Tulsa #okwx
After a chilly morning, we've got a TERRIFIC Tuesday in store! Some frost is still possible far northeast where temps will get close to freezing Tuesday morning π₯Ά
Outdoor plans are a go in the afternoon!! ππ
#Tulsa #okwx #kswx
NW Expressway and Council area has all snow now. #okwx
Get past today's chill and a freeze overnight into Monday morning, then the sunshine door opens! π€οΈ
We've got a BEAUTIFUL stretch of weather on the way that'll likely carry into next weekend too! ππ
#Tulsa #okwx
A chilly Sunday! And we'll gradually clear west to east late afternoon/evening βοΈπ€οΈ, but it may take a little longer farther east and south in eastern Oklahoma
With clear skies tonight, you may want to protect sensitive plants. FREEZE WATCH in effect!π₯Ά
