WINDS ARE LIGHT, THE SUN IS OUT TOMORROW, LOW TO MID 70S AS WE GO INTO THE AFTERNOON FOR OKC, STILLWATER AND A BIT WARMER IN NORTHERN AND NORTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA, MAKING A RUN TO NEAR 80 DEGREES.

THANKS FOR LOGGING ON TO COCO.COM, AS WELL AS YOUR KOCO FIVE MOBILE APP. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OUT THERE FOR THIS EVENING. THE RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER IS PRETTY LOW. CAN’T RULE OUT A BRIEF FUNNEL DROPPING OUT OF THESE CLOUDS, BUT IT’S UNLIKELY THAT IT WILL TOUCH THE GROUND AND TURN INTO A TORNADO. IF ONE WERE TO TOUCH THE GROUND. BY THE WAY, THE WINDS INSIDE OF THEM WOULD BE ABOUT 40 UP TO 60MPH. SO NOT VERY STRONG IN WHATEVER IS OUT THERE. THIS EVENING WILL BE LONG GONE AFTER SUNSET.
More rain moves in tonight

Oklahoma: The wettest April on record

2 weeks ago | koco.com | Damon Lane

Chief Meteorologist Damon Lane shows how much rain fell in Oklahoma this month and how it compares to normal.April is known for storms in Oklahoma, but this was way more than we ever expected. Why? Because we have never had an April this wet before. Really. Oklahoma City set a record for the wettest April on record with 12.55" of rain, which is well above the average of around 4" of rain. For the entire state, the average rain was 8.52" of rain, surpassing the previous record of 8.32".
