A strong storm system moved southeast through the central Plains during the late hours of the 9th and into the 10th. Thunderstorms developed first over northern Oklahoma, and then developed further south toward the Red River along and just behind the front. Large hail was reported with several of the thunderstorms, especially over southwest Oklahoma. Some of the hail fell in large quantities, with locations like Anadarko receiving so much hail that it looked like snow the next morning. The storms weakened to below severe limits by midnight as they moved off to the east.
