    Forecasters warn Oklahoma may see dangerous tornadoes as Texas bakes in record heat

    Forecasters are warning of another day of heightened risk of dangerous tornadoes in the Midwest on Saturday and telling people in south Texas it may feel like close to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (49 degrees Celsius) almost four weeks before summer starts. The weather service in Oklahoma compared the day to "a gasoline-soaked brush pile.” Forecasters aren't certain storms will form, but any that do could explode with large hail, dangerous winds and tornadoes. Excessive heat, especially for May, is the danger in south Texas, where the heat index is forecast to approach near 120 degrees F (49 degrees C) during the weekend.
