Today is Saturday August 22, 2026

8:06 Update: The severe t-storm watch was just cancelled early.

The only warning now is for Bledsoe County and that storms is finally showing some weakening. Still, you folks are under a severe t-storm warning until 8:15 CDT. After that storm, we’ll be done.

There are no other active warnings and no other areas of concern. Our evening has finally taken a turn for the better!

I expect the severe t-storm watch to be cancelled at any moment.

The only warning remaining is in Bledsoe County and it is gradually weakening. This warning expires at 8:15 CDT

Things have really calmed down for those of us on the plateau! The only storm of interest is now moving south through Bledsoe County. It has been on a weakening trend now for several minutes. My only remaining concern is those of you in the path of this strong storm in Bledsoe County.

Thank You, Sponsors!
