A cold front moved south through Oklahoma on the 8th, lying over southeast Oklahoma by late afternoon. Thunderstorms developed along the front, with several becoming severe. Instability was fairly high, which favored large hail and damaging wind gusts with any severe thunderstorms. Some of the hail was at least two inches in diameter, and wind gusts as high as 70 mph were reported in some places. Some damage was reported with the high winds in Love county.
