Episode Narrative Thunderstorms developed during heating of the afternoon over parts of Southern Oklahoma. Temperatures reached into the 90s, making temperature-dew point spreads on the order of 30-40 degrees. Instability was minimal, but a few thunderstorms were able to produce very strong winds, causing some minor damage in Stephens county. |At the same time, numerous thunderstorms developed ahead of a cold front that moved into northwest Oklahoma during the afternoon hours of the 26th. These thunderstorms developed through the evening hours, with the aid of convergence along the front, and lift associated with an upper level storm system moving through the central plains. The thunderstorms formed into several complexes due to the presence of numerous outflow boundaries. Surface moisture and instability along and just behind the front were sufficient for the thunderstorms to become severe. The thunderstorms moved off to the east with strong winds and large hail reported. A landspout developed over southwest Kingfisher county, remaining nearly stationary for over 10 minutes. No damage was reported with the landspout.
