Friday's Storms Brought Rain and Wind-More On The Way
Tom Davis
A radar-indicated tornado was identified by the National Weather Service in east-central Osage County near Wynona early Friday morning. We are awaiting possible damage reports from that area.
A little more than 2 inches of rain fell in Osage and northern Washington counties before dawn on Friday. Meanwhile, the middle of Nowata County received 3 to 4 inches of rain since 3:30 a.m. Friday. Northern and southern parts of Nowata County received up to 2 inches.
More heavy rain is expected Friday night as the active weather pattern continues. These rains could lead to flash flooding and rising levels on mainstem rivers due to already saturated conditions. A Flood Watch is now in effect from tonight through Saturday morning. Additional heavy rain is expected over the weekend, increasing the potential for more flooding.
While the region received significant rainfall this morning, the greater severe weather threat is expected to accompany another overnight thunderstorm complex forecast to develop well to the west and move eastward into early Saturday morning. Damaging winds of up to 75 mph, large hail, and a limited tornado threat are possible with this system, along with continued heavy rainfall.
