BEEN BUSY WITH SEVERE WEATHER SO WILL KEEP THIS VERY BRIEF. BIG BUST ON
MAX TEMP AT TUL YESTERDAY DUE TO SMALL PERSISTENT PATCH OF CLOUDS AND
ALSO PRECIP THIS MORNING HAS FALLEN IN AREAS WHERE I HAD NO POPS...WILL
TRY TO DO BETTER TODAY.

LOW LEVEL MOISTURE SHOULD REMAIN ABUNDANT THROUGH FRIDAY. WITH SEVERAL
WEAK SHORTWAVES MOVING ACROSS THE AREA...WILL KEEP TSTMS IN THE FCST
THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH HIGHEST POPS IN SE OK. MOST SIGNIFICANT
SHORTWAVE WILL AFFECT THE AREA LATE TONIGHT AND FRIDAY SO HIGHEST POPS
WILL BE AT THAT TIME.

BELIEVE ETA AND NGM ARE TOO FAST IN BRINGING SFC TROF AND DRIER AIR
INTO ERN OK FRIDAY AFTERNOON AS IS TYPICALLY THE CASE AND PREFER THE
AVN IN THIS REGARD. THIS WILL RESULT IN MAXES FRIDAY COOLER THAN THE
NGM MOS AND MINS FRIDAY NIGHT WARMER THAN THE NGM MOS. ALSO WENT WARMER
