National Weather Service Norman, Oklahoma

The National Weather Service Norman office monitors and forecasts weather conditions across central and western Oklahoma through advanced radar systems and meteorological equipment.

The Norman weather office began operations in 1890 as the Central Oklahoma forecast office, initially located in Oklahoma City before moving to Norman in 1987.

The facility organizes the SKYWARN program, training local residents to become certified storm spotters who assist in documenting severe weather events.

Visitors can access real-time weather data, forecasts, and emergency alerts through the office website, NOAA Weather Radio transmitters, and social media platforms.

The Norman branch issued the first-ever tornado emergency alert during the May 1999 outbreak, which caused damages exceeding one billion dollars.
