What the National Weather Service wrote

A high-amplitude upper wave moved into portions of the Upper Mississippi Valley during the day on the 24th. A surface low/warm front intersection, propagating to the southeast across Oklahoma, was the focal point for convective development during the early evening. With strong wind shear and modest instability in place, supercell storm modes emerged with initial activity. One of these thunderstorms impacted the northern/central/southeastern portions of the Oklahoma City Metropolitan area, producing reports of large to very large hail (and associated hail damage). Additional strong to severe storms continued to emerge along the southward advancing front into the late evening, yielding sporadic reports of hail and strong winds.
