Severe thunderstorms, hail possible in Oklahoma early this week: See weather timing

This week's weather in Oklahoma may bring potentially high winds, baseball-size hail and a low chance of tornadoes.
The National Weather Service predicts severe thunderstorms will move through central and western Oklahoma overnight between Tuesday and Wednesday.
Tuesday is expected to start mostly cloudy, which will only be broken in the afternoon before the chances of showers and thunderstorms start to grow. The Weather Channel predicts that Oklahoma City's wind will start to pick up after 10 a.m., with speeds starting at 22 mph. By 5 p.m., the wind should peak at a high speed of 29 mph.
Later Tuesday afternoon, the weather service forecasts that severe weather could develop and bring some hazardous precipitation.

The majority of Oklahoma has a slight chance of seeing 2-inch hail, along with parts of Texas and Kansas, the weather service reports, but hail as large as a baseball and damaging winds up to 60 to 80 mph could potentially develop.
As of Monday afternoon, the weather service forecasted that the possibility of tornadoes is low, but as severe weather develops, the likelihood could increase later in the day on Tuesday.
