AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
306 PM CDT SAT JUN  5 2004

.DISCUSSION...
LOW-MID LEVEL THERMAL/MOISTURE ADVECTIVE FIELDS PROGD FOR TONIGHT
ARE SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS FEW NIGHTS. CLEAR SIGNAL FOR MCS
ACTIVITY COMING OFF OF WESTERN HIGH PLAINS AND AFFECTING MAINLY
WESTERN/SOUTHWEST ZONES LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...AND ANOTHER
MAIN CONVECTIVE CLUSTER EXPECTED TO PASS THROUGH SOUTHEAST KANSAS
WHICH COULD AFFECT NORTHEAST ZONES. WHAT WE WILL HAVE THROUGH THIS
FIRST PERIOD THAT WE DID NOT HAVE THE PREVIOUS TWO NIGHTS IS A
FAIRLY WELL DEFINED SYNOPTIC BOUNDARY TO FIRE CONVECTION TO OUR
NORTH /AKA SE KANSAS CONVECTION/ AND INFLUENCE FROM LARGE SCALE
MID-UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THAT WILL PROGRESS THROUGH UPPER-MIDDLE
PLAINS TONIGHT. DID HAVE A VORT MAX LAST NIGHT ROLLING DOWN NW
FLOW...BUT MORE SIGNIFICANT...AND STRONGER MID LEVEL FLOW EXPECTED
TONIGHT. LATEST SHORT TERM MODELS NOT TOO EXCITED ABOUT WIDESPREAD
PRECIP TONIGHT. CURRENT FORECAST HAS LIKELY POPS OVER MOST OF THE
FORECAST AREA AT SOME POINT THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING. GIVEN SYNOPTIC
SUPPORT...DO NOT SEE ANY GOOD REASON TO CHANGE POPS MUCH. MESOSCALE
INFLUENCES ARE BEGINNING TO SHOW THEMSELVES...AS CONVECTION
BEGINNING NEAR BOUNDARY IN KANSAS AND HIGH PLAINS ACTIVITY FIRING
OFF IN NORTHEAST NEW MEXICO INTO PANHANDLES. WILL LOWER POPS A FEW
LOCATIONS BASED ON QUESTIONS OF RECOVERY TODAY /MAINLY CENTRAL AND
SOUTHEAST ZONES/ BUT STILL FEEL THAT ACTIVITY WILL BE MORE
WIDESPREAD THAN MODELS LEAD US TO BELIEVE.

NO SIG CHANGES MADE TO REST OF FORECAST PACKAGE...AS MID LEVEL RIDGE
BUILDS IN AHEAD OF DEVELOPING SW FLOW. EARLY-MIDDLE PART OF WEEK
LOOKS VERY WARM AND DRY...NEXT WRN TROF TAKING SHAPE TOWARD END OF
WEEK. DRY LINE TYPE ACTIVITY LOOKS TO BE MAIN SHOW LATE
WEEK...BEFORE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONSENSUS BRING FRONT INTO AREA
FOR THE WEEKEND. MAY TWEAK NUMBERS BELOW...MAINLY POPS...BEFORE
ISSUANCE BASED ON RADAR/SATELLITE TRENDS.
