Narrative:
As the dispatcher for commuter flight from tul to sfn, I did not put an alternate airport on the release as required by part 121 rules. WX at dfw did require this. The flight was handed off to another dispatcher and sometime later this mistake was realized. The flight landed safely at dfw without incident.
