Storm chances are on the rise for western Oklahoma with storms possible late afternoon and moving into the state by mid-evening and overnight through the metro.

Severe storms are possible from this and this includes golf ball or larger hail, strong winds, heavy localized rain and maybe a tornado or two. So stay weather aware late day and tonight.

Metro evening weather should be good if you are going out to see the Oklahoma City Dodgers or have another outdoor activity.
