Flash Flood — Wagoner, OK

May 25, 2025

Strong to severe thunderstorms developed into northeastern Oklahoma during the early morning hours of the 25th, as lift increased north of a warm front with the strengthening of the low level jet across the area. Very unstable air combined with strong wind shear to support the development of some supercell thunderstorms. Large hail to golf ball size occurred with the severe thunderstorms. Locally heavy rainfall also resulted in some flash flooding.
