A potent Spring storm system took shape across the Southern and Central Plains. Strong surface cyclogenesis took shape during the day, allowing ample moisture to return northward with strong southerly flow. At the same time, a strong upper level shortwave trough allowed strong mid level westerlies to overspread much of the Plains region. With large instability and wind shear, the stage was set for widespread severe storm development. Storms initiated within the open warm sector ahead of the dryline. The first storm developed near Lawton and moved northeast along I-44 into parts of central Oklahoma, resulting in several tornadoes and large hail. Additional supercells spawned tornadoes across northern Oklahoma, and the slow moving nature of storms lead to several occurrences of flash flooding. Storms continued well into the night.

A potent upper storm system moved across the Central and Southern Plains. At the surface, intense daytime heating allowed for scattered thunderstorm development along the Caprock of west Texas and Oklahoma during the afternoon. As this activity shifted eastward, it merged into a large north south oriented complex. Occasional bouts of damaging winds and large hail occurred with these storms, along with heavy rainfall that resulted in localized flooding, the first of many flood events in the month of May.

A tornado was reported east of Lake Kickapoo at 849 pm CDT. The tornado initially moved east crossing state highway 25 about 5.5 miles northwest of Archer City. The tornado began to curve northeast as it approached state highway 79 and crossed that highway about 4 miles north of Archer City. After crossing state highway 79, the tornado then turned to the north and downed transmission lines about 6.5 miles north- northeast of Archer City (DI 24, DOD 6). The tornado is believed to have continued moving north-northwest crossing state highway 79 again about 7.5 miles north of Archer City before dissipating 8 miles north of Archer City and west of highway 79.
A potent Spring storm system took shape across the Southern and Central Plains. Strong surface cyclogenesis took shape during the day, allowing ample moisture to return northward with strong southerly flow. At the same time, a strong upper level shortwave trough allowed strong mid level westerlies to overspread much of the Plains region. With large instability and wind shear, the stage was set for widespread severe storm development. Storms initiated within the open warm sector ahead of the dryline. Additional storms developed during the evening hours and persisted well into the night, producing sporadic large hail and wind damage across north Texas.
