What the National Weather Service wrote

The approach of a compact upper wave, combined with a sagging frontal boundary across the area, provided the lift needed for widespread thunderstorm development. This included a few supercell storms, though given development on the cool side of the surface boundary, these storms remained 'elevated' and produced severe hail. Training thunderstorms also lead to flash flooding during the afternoon/evening of the 23rd across east-central Oklahoma.
