Episode Narrative An well-defined upper level disturbance moved east into the southern plains during the late afternoon and early evening hours. Thunderstorms developed over the panhandles and southwest Kansas and congealed into a complex as it moved into western Oklahoma. Thunderstorms were able to sustain themselves as the low-level jet developed by mid evening. Thunderstorms earlier in the day stabilized the atmosphere, with cut down on storm intensity during the late evening. However, strong winds were reported over several locations as the thunderstorms moved into eastern Oklahoma by the late night hours. The strongest winds were reported in Kiowa county, where a gust of 68 was measured. No damage was reported with the thunderstorms.
