Last night was very active with severe storms. We had one tornado warning issued for Pottawatomie County. Below are a few pictures from our EOC Operations, and from some of our spotters in the field. #okwx #pcoem

Please do not do this! It is very dangerous to the pilot, especially when they are trying to fly around storms. #okwx #pcoem

⚠️EM VOLUNTEERS NEEDED⚠️ We are actively looking for volunteers to come join our awesome team. We have many options available for you to participate in. Such as, storm spotting, EOC operations, communications, etc. #pcoem #EMGTwitter

Friday will bring a chance for thunderstorms to develop along a dryline that will be just west of I-35. A strong cap will be in place that could prevent storms. If storms develop, they will likely be severe with the potential for large hail, damaging winds and tornadoes. #okwx

🚨SEVERE WEATHER UPDATE🚨 Tomorrow will bring a risk of severe weather for Pott County. If a storm can break the CAP then we will have a risk of seeing hail up to the size of baseballs, winds 60-80 mph, and a tornado cannot be ruled out. We will be monitoring. #okwx #pcoem

Keep an 👁 on the weather this evening and overnight. We sure will be! #okwx #pcoem

Well the cap held! Storms fired down near Lawton and struggled as they moved NE and fell apart. We will be monitoring for round 2 late tonight between 10pm and 3am. #okwx #pcoem

Do you know the signs of heat related illness? #heatishere #pcoem

Generally when our team is together, we are working hard for all of you and glad to do so!! But yesterday....we actually got to just hang out with our families and have some much needed down time. We had half of our team together and truly missed those who could not make it.

Tomorrow will be a hot one! Make sure you drink of fluids if you have to be outside. Then Sunday we start a cool down and will be nice through the middle of next week. #okwx #pcoem
