Wednesday, Oklahoma saw one of the biggest hail storms in recent history. Damage reports came in as the storm moved across central Oklahoma hitting the city of Norman hard.

Oklahoma City will get into the severe weather on Tuesday and then all eyes turn to Dixie Alley on Wednesday for what could be a big day for tornadoes.

The National Hurricane Center and NOAA are considering a change to the official date of the Atlantic hurricane season. Currently, June 1st is the start, but with recent storms popping up before June 1st, some would like the season to start May 15th.
