AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK 330 PM CDT THU JUL 12 2001 THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT IS THE LEADING EDGE OF SOMEWHAT COOLER AIR IS SLOWLY WORKING ITS WAY TOWARD CENTRAL AND WESTERN OKLAHOMA... AIDED BY THE WESTWARD SHIFT IN UPPER-AIR FEATURES. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SLIP THROUGH MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT... AND THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST AREA... INCLUDING OUR TEXAS COUNTIES... TOMORROW MORNING. HIGH TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE NOTICEABLY MILDER TOMORROW... ALTHOUGH STILL QUITE WARM... IN ALL BUT THE SOUTHWEST. EVEN LOWER HIGHS ARE LIKELY OVER MOST OF THE AREA ON SATURDAY. AS THE UPPER RIDGE REASSERTS ITSELF EARLY NEXT WEEK... TEMPERATURES SHOULD BEGIN ANOTHER ASCENT INTO TRIPLE-DIGIT-LAND. PRECIPITATION CHANCES... WHICH HAVE BEEN NIL FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW... ARE HIGHEST TONIGHT AS THE BOUNDARY CROSSES THE FORECAST AREA. MOISTURE... INSTABILITY... AND LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE ARE ALL PRESENT AND MAY EVEN HELP GENERATE SOME RATHER STRONG STORMS OVERNIGHT. WEAK WINDS ALOFT WILL WORK AGAINST A MAJOR STORM OUTBREAK... HOWEVER. AT THIS TIME... 30 TO 40 PERCENT IS ABOUT THE HIGHEST WE CAN GO WITH POPS DUE TO POSITION UNCERTAINTIES AND THE PROBABLE SCATTERED NATURE OF THE STORMS. THE BEST RAIN CHANCES SHIFT SOUTHWEST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS... THEN THERE IS ONE LAST SLIGHT CHANCE ON SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT AS WARM ADVECTION RETURNS. AFTER THAT... THE UPPER RIDGE SHOULD SQUASH ANYTHING THAT TRIES TO DEVELOP.
