LIVE: Tornado warnings near Oklahoma City
3:25 PM, May 30, 2013

(WXIA) -- Tornado warnings have been issued for areas near Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Oklahoma after storms popped up in areas ravaged by storms early last week.

A new tornado watch was issued early Thursday afternoon for parts of Oklahoma and other states through the nation's midsection as part of a severe weather outbreak.

The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma, issued the watch as one of several in an area expecting severe weather running from north Texas to upper Wisconsin and Michigan.

The watch statement said that people in the watch area may face threats from intense tornadoes along with very large hail events, with hail up to 3 inches in diameter, and damaging wind gusts exceeding 70 mph.
