Rain chances go up overnight. The moisture is very needed.

Highest rain amounts to the SE parts of the state, but could see a heavier band setup somewhere from W/C OK.

Backside snow looks possible for panhandle areas, and then maybe extreme E/NE OK as the system really cranks up.

What a great rain for the southeastern half of the state. Just a little more than a handful of degrees cooler and this would be quite the snowfall.

After this system finishes up, the next timeframe of action looks to be right around March 1.

Looks like early Tuesday morning, showers and thunderstorms will develop right on top of central OK and move eastward.

Are we done with the cold and the snow? I would like to shave my beard now.

OMG!!

Tons of hail and crazy lightening and torrential rain downtown.

Good grief, it's only February.

Good drink of moisture with these. Some of the storms south of Chickasha are small supercells and will have decent hail.

HRRR showing another line of storms developing later over north central OK, may back build into OKC - or may just miss it.

As it turned out, the second line developed just to the north and northeast of Stillwater and moved east. It didn't back build to Stillwater, much less OKC.

And so this is the end of the February 2016 weather discussion.

Extreme fire danger the next couple days.

Slight chance of a quick moving shower or storm overnight tonight, best chance in SE OK.

Looking ahead, beginning Sunday into next week - look like we enter a wet pattern as a large storm system takes its sweet time to move on. Hopefully we get some good soaking moisture to help dampen these fire days.
