Severe weather to the east this afternoon

Good morning, folks!

Starting the morning with temps in the 40s to mid-60s across the High Plains. Temps will still rise into the upper 80s to mid-90s for this afternoon with mostly sunny skies and breezy winds. Isolated thunderstorms are expected to start as early as 3 PM with storms increasing in coverage before tracking into western Oklahoma and north Texas. The SPC currently has a enhanced risk of severe weather from Beaver County and back down to Cottle County. There is a slight risk surround that for our eastern counties as well as a marginal tag. As of this morning we have all the ingredients to get some strong thunderstorms going. If storms do develop, we will see winds gusts up to 70 mph and baseball size hail. While the tornado threat is low, we cannot rule one out. The rest of our seven-day forecast will still call for isolated to scattered storms into the weekend. We are in the Spring season so be sure to stay weather aware and tuned to the latest!
