Tucked away in Jefferson County lies Hastings, Oklahoma, a small town with deep historical roots stretching back to the early 1900s. Once a flourishing farming community, Hastings was originally named Bayard. Its inception coincided with the settlement of the Kiowa, Comanche, and Apache Reservation in 1901.

Instruction: Severe weather is not expected and no warnings are anticipated at this time. If outdoors, consider seeking shelter inside a building. Target Area: Comanche; Cotton; Jefferson; Stephens.
