Western and Central Oklahoma could see a round of severe weather over the weekend. There's a threat of showers and thunderstorms Saturday west of a line extending from Altus to Alva.
But National Weather Service senior forecaster Michael Scotten says there's a higher chance for that weather to move southeast through Central Oklahoma on Sunday.

"We're expecting some severe storms, mainly in the form of a squall line to move through the area between 3 p.m. and midnight," Scotten says. "Damaging winds to 70 miles per hour and hail up togolf balls appear to be the main hazards. Right now it does appear that the tornado potential does remain low."
After those storms move through, the Norman Forecast Office predicts cold temperatures Monday night into Tuesday. A frost or a freeze is possible across much of the area, with lows mainly in the 30s.
