Flood Watch For Northeast Oklahoma Through Thursday Morning As Wet Systems Move Through

Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms will slowly move across northeastern Oklahoma through Thursday.

Rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches are likely, with up to 6 inches in some spots possible, according to the National Weather Service. A flood watch is in effect Tuesday night through Thursday morning. Creeks and flood-prone urban areas are most likely to be affected.

The threat of severe weather is low. Some severe storms bringing hail and 60 mph wind gusts are possible Tuesday night.

The higher severe weather risk is in southwest and central Oklahoma.
