The weather map from CNN yesterday looked to me to have the characteristics of a classic panhandle hook. These storms typically involve cold air moving south on the east side of the Rockies, making a U-turn (hook) over the panhandles of Texas and Oklahoma, then head north over the Mississippi River basin drawing up more moisture from the Gulf of Mexico on their northward trek.
