Personal Observations

At approximately 1:55 AM (CST) the outflow boundary moved through Canadian County in Oklahoma. Power was lost briefly due to winds around 50-60 mph. We received wind whipped torrential rainfall but no hail. CG lightning was numerous as well as very loud thunder.

In the Oklahoma City area, a lowering was reported. Numerous trees are reported down and flooding is expected. Three+ inch hail was reported. The Northern edge of the storm no longer contains rotation but is producing straight line winds. That portion of the storm has passed I-35 leaving approximately 1800 customers without power.

The Southern edge of this complex has passed Norman and is drifting SE about 35 mph with 65 mph winds. Damaging hail is expected. This area is bowing and increasing in wind sheer.

Back in Canadian County, we are again experiencing increased lightning and thunder. No warnings are in effect.
