Back-to-back powerful Pacific storm systems to impact the Pacific Northwest and northern California through the end of this week with heavy rain, flooding, strong winds, and higher elevation mountain snow. A strong, long-duration atmospheric river will accompany the Pacific storms, bringing excessive rainfall and flash flooding to southwest Oregon and northwest California through the week. Read More >
Overview
After cooler than normal days due to cloud cover across the Panhandles after a cold front pushed through, sunshine broke through the clouds and allowed for adequate instability and shear to develop and support severe thunderstorms. Thunderstorms developed in a moisture-rich upslope regime in southeast Colorado and then moved south into the western OK panhandle. A thunderstorm moved south out of Colorado and dropped a couple brief tornadoes in Cimarron County, OK and then proceeded to move south across the Texas Panhandle. As the storm moved south, it dropped baseball size hail in Dalhart, TX. Other thunderstorms developed nearby and started to congeal with the original storm into a line of storms before moving through Amarillo and the southern TX Panhandle. Before leaving the TX Panhandle, some of the stronger segments dropped 70 to 80 mph winds.Tornadoes:
