'Cecilia and I continue to pray for their loved ones as they grieve this unimaginable loss and urge all Texans to continue praying for all impacted by this devastation.

Texoma prepares for severe weather: Possible wind gusts and hail ahead
TEXOMA (KFDX/KJTL) – Significant severe weather is expected to take place in the Texoma area today, Sunday, June 8. The timing is from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., but could be as early as 2 p.m. Significant damaging wind gusts (80-100 mph), extremely large hail (baseball-sized and larger), and a few tornadoes will all be possible. There is potential for a strong tornado and softball-sized hail in the afternoon. Still, the most likely concern is significant damaging wind gusts, leading to widespread wind damage and power outages across the areas hit hardest. If we don't see a single tornado, this will still likely be our most significant severe weather event of the season, just because of the hurricane-force wind gusts. Between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m., we may have a couple of supercells over Texoma. Conditions will favor these supercells to be capable of all hazards. These cells will eventually congeal into a system that pushes to the east, still capable of withstanding all hazards and significant wind damage. While these early cells are occurring, more supercells develop across the panhandle. The cells will congeal into a system that will sweep across most of Texoma from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. All hazards are possible with this system, but the potential for 80-100 mph winds will be the greatest concern. Thames winds are expected to cause widespread damage, and power outages are likely to occur. Stay up to date with our TexomaToGo App, free in the App Store! Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
