On April 20, 2024, the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center (SPC) first delineated a severe weather risk for April 25–26, highlighting a zone extending from the Central Great Plains northeastward to the Midwestern U.S. over both days. The forecast was predicated on the development of thunderstorms downwind of an upper-tropospheric trough, where weather forecast models were depicting the advection of a moist airmass.[9] The forecast was maintained through the next two days. The risk area was expanded into northeastern Texas on April 22 and later extended to include the possibility of severe weather on April 27 as well.[10][11]

On April 24, a widespread slight risk (level 2) area was issued by the Storm Prediction Center for April 26.[12] On the morning of April 25, this was upgraded to an enhanced risk of severe weather for parts of Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, highlighting the risk of tornadoes and large hail in connection with storms developing along a dry line between the Texas Panhandle and northwestern Kansas.[13] This risk was later narrowed to two focal areas: one in northwestern Kansas associated with supercells during the afternoon and evening, and a second near the Red River, associated with an forecast cluster of storms during the overnight hours.[14] With a enhanced risk of severe weather already in place, the SPC issued the first tornado watch at 5:35 AM CDT for eastern Oklahoma.[15] In the early afternoon around 12:55 pm CDT a tornado watch for northeastern Nebraska was issued. The tornado watch included the possibility for "a couple of intense tornadoes."[16] At 3:41 PM CDT a tornado emergency was issued for West Elkhorn, NE as a large and destructive wedge tornado moved through the area.[7] Some homes were completely leveled and many more structures suffered significant damage. [17]

In the morning hours of April 27, the Storm Prediction Center issued a moderate risk (level 4) for central Oklahoma, north-central Texas, extreme southwestern Missouri, and southeastern Kansas. The moderate risk included a significant 15% tornado risk, a significant 30% wind risk, and a significant 45% hail risk.[18]
