"TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING... RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE... AND SOME STORMS MAY PRODUCE HEAVY DOWNPOURS.
FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING... THE STAGE WILL BE SET FOR A POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK FROM EASTERN TEXAS INTO THE ARKLATEX REGION. TORNADOES... VERY LARGE HAIL... AND DAMAGING THUNDERSTORM WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM AROUND THE GAINESVILLE AND DALLAS FORT WORTH AREAS EASTWARD AND SOUTHWARD. A SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA OR EXTREME NORTHERN TEXAS... ALONG A WARM FRONT THAT WILL MOVE NORTH TO NEAR THE RED RIVER AND EASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN ARKANSAS BY EARLY FRIDAY EVENING. A DRY LINE WILL EXTEND SOUTH FROM THE LOW... AND WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS CENTRAL TEXAS. VERY UNSTABLE CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP SOUTH OF THE FRONT AND EAST OF THE DRY LINE. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MOST LIKELY IN FAR SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA... BUT WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT AND THE SURFACE LOW WILL RESULT IN A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS WESTERN NORTH TEXAS AND THE REST OF THE SOUTHERN HALF OF OKLAHOMA... COLD RAIN AND SCATTERED EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. TEMPERATURES THERE WILL BE IN THE 40S AND 50S... WITH A RAW EASTERLY WIND GUSTING AT TIMES TO 30 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT... WINDS WILL TURN GRADUALLY TO THE NORTH AND INCREASE TO 20 TO 30 MPH... GUSTING AT TIMES TO AROUND 40 MPH. RAIN AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL TRANSITION TO SNOW ACROSS NORTHWESTERN AND NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA... WHERE ACCUMULATIONS OF AN INCH OR 2 WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG WITH SOME BLOWING AND DRIFTING. RAIN COULD CHANGE TO SNOW LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AS FAR SOUTH AS THE I-40 CORRIDOR. HEAVIER SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW... WITH POTENTIAL BLIZZARD CONDITIONS... WILL IMPACT MUCH OF THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS OF KANSAS AND COLORADO. A LIGHT FREEZE WILL BE POSSIBLE IN FAR NORTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA BY SATURDAY MORNING."
