1-minute #GOESEast Visible images showed widespread blowing dust & smoke plumes from Texas to Oklahoma & Kansas - and wind gusts in excess of 50-60 knots behind a cold front were aiding the rapid development & spread of grass fires (particularly in Oklahoma). #TXwx #OKwx #KSwx https://t.co/x2R8CKfrSt

RT @NWS: Several clusters of severe storms are expected from central Texas across the ArkLaTex and into the lower Ohio Valley through tonight. The greatest threat for tornadoes, large hail and damaging winds will be from the ArkLaTex across western Arkansas into southeast Missouri, including potential for strong to potentially intense tornadoes.

Review your severe weather safety procedures for the possibility of dangerous weather today. Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, https://t.co/qk3BcVP5M8, or other media for watches and warnings.

Even in the comparatively low spatial resolution of GOES-8 imagery, there were notable signatures of overshooting tops in Visible and an Enhanced-V in infrared (props to @NWSNorman, who saved the animations that have somehow disappeared from the original CIMSS GOES Gallery site). https://t.co/SGVz5g4Nnq

While it's a beautiful day out there today, 26 years ago was a much different story as a tornado outbreak impacted the area, including an F5 tornado that devastated portions of the south OKC metro. #okwx
