WILL PROVIDE ANOTHER UPDATE TO HANDLE CONVECTIVE SITUATION. SHORT
TERM AND MESOSCALE MODELS DID NOT HAVE ACTIVITY MOVING INTO
NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA...WHICH IS NOW OCCURRING. COLD POOL GENERATED
EARLIER BY DRYLINE CONVECTION IN SOUTHWEST KANSAS IS PROVIDING
ENOUGH LIFT TO REALIZE AMPLE MID LEVEL INSTABILITY. ALTHOUGH
ACTIVITY MAY WEAKEN WITH TIME AFTER MIDNIGHT...BELIEVE THAT COLD
POOL SHOULD CONTINUE SPREADING SOUTHWARD AND GENERATING ENOUGH
MECHANICAL LIFT TO SUPPORT HIGHER POPS ACROSS NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
ZONES TONIGHT.

MINS WILL ALSO BE RAISED A LITTLE ACROSS MAINLY SOUTHERN PORTIONS
OF THE FORECAST AREA AS DEWPOINTS HAVE STARTED POOLING NICELY WITH
68+ READINGS WIDESPREAD.
