A tornado watch has been issued for parts of Oklahoma and Texas. Severe storms are expected to develop across southwestern Oklahoma and western north Texas over the next few hours. The storms will move to the northeast at 25 mph. #okwx #texomawx

Significant flooding is possible over the next few days across much of the area. If you encounter flooded roads, please please please do not attempt to drive through them! Turn around don't drown! Additional safety graphics can be found here: weather.gov/safety/flood #okwx #txwx

Rain is starting to end out west and will continue to do so across the area. However, dangerous flooding will still linger in spots as the water is slow to drain. Don't drive around barricades or through flooded roadways, you never know how deep the water is! #okwx #texomawx

Strong to severe storms capable of all hazards are possible this weekend into early next week. Timing of the incoming system will impact the exact days for potentially higher end severe weather. The track of the system will play a role in the location for storms. #okwx #txwx
