Storms will likely fire around 3 p.m. Friday. They will intensify and become more widespread into the afternoon and evening.

The News 9 weather team will watch for two rounds.

The first round will be along the warm front in central and northeast Oklahoma. These will be isolated in nature.

The second round will fire along the cold front as it crashes in. Storms will form into a line and push southeast.

Large hail with isolated tennis balls, damaging winds, and localized flash flooding will be the main concerns.

The tornado threat is low Friday just east of Interstate 35.

Behind the front, it will be very windy! Northwest winds will gust up to 50 mph behind the storms.
