What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
May 26, 6:30 AM CDT	FLASH FLOOD	14 Wnw Fairfax, OK	WATER OVER RURAL ROADS IN PONCA BEND OF THE ARKANSAS RIVER.

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Lamont, OK (KLMN), launched 00:00Z, 10.3 hours before the alert went out and 25 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Norman, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at May 26, 3:26 AM CDT, 1 hour 50 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 26, 3:26 AM CDT, 1 hour 50 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
326 AM CDT FRI MAY 26 2006

.DISCUSSION...
DIGGING UPPER TROF NOW ALONG W COAST WILL STRENGTHEN MID/UPPER LEVEL
WINDS ENOUGH TO INCREASE PROSPECTS OF DRYLINE CONVECTION ACROSS HIGH
PLAINS NEXT 4-5 DAYS. BEST CHANCES WILL BE ACROSS OUR W/NW ZONES SAT
THROUGH TUE. OTHERWISE EXPECT HOT AND WINDY CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL...
WITH MODERATE HUMIDITY BUT SLIM CHANCES OF PRECIP.

TODAY/TONIGHT...UPPER RIDGING AND RELATIVELY WEAK FLOW ALOFT WILL
COMBINE WITH ILL-DEFINED DRYLINE TO LIMIT POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZED
CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. ALTHOUGH DIURNAL STORMS MAY
BECOME FAIRLY NUMEROUS OVER HIGHER TERRAIN...THERE WILL NOT BE MUCH
TO HOLD THEM TOGETHER AND MOVE THEM THIS FAR E. OF MORE CONCERN AT
THIS TIME IS THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY NOW ACROSS N OK...WHICH COULD
MAINTAIN IDENTITY LONG ENOUGH TO INCREASE THE CHANCES OF
REDEVELOPMENT ACROSS N OK LATER TODAY. CHANCES OF OVERCOMING THE CAP
ARE LOW...BUT WE WILL SPREAD SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE N.
RAINFALL OVERNIGHT SHOULD TAKE THE EDGE OFF TEMPS ALONG THE KS
BORDER TODAY...AND HAVE LOWERED MAXES THERE. ELSEWHERE...HOT/DRY.

SATURDAY/SUNDAY...INCREASING CHANCES OF STRONG STORMS OVER HIGH
PLAINS AS DRYLINE SHARPENS AND SW WINDS INCREASE. CAP WILL STILL BE
AN ISSUE...BUT DRYLINE HAS A WAY OF GETTING ACTIVE THIS TIME OF YEAR
IN THIS SORT OF PATTERN. DRYLINE IS FORECAST TO EDGE CLOSER TO NW OK
ON SUN...OTHERWISE ANY STORMS THAT GO UP ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN W OF
THE CWA UNTIL EVENING.

MONDAY/TUESDAY...CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL MAY GET A SLIGHT BOOST FROM
COLD FRONT APPROACHING NW OK. LONGWAVE PATTERN FORECAST TO DEAMPLIFY
AND MID/UPPER FLOW WILL WEAKEN SOME ACROSS NW OK. LOW POPS ARE
STRETCHED INTO TUESDAY FOR POSSIBLE FRONTAL INTRUSION INTO NW OK.

WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY...DEAMPLIFYING PATTERN WILL TREND TOWARD
EARLY-SUMMER RIDGE ACROSS S PLAINS. ONLY HOPE FOR PRECIP BY THIS
TIME MAY BE THE HINT OF A WEAK WNW FLOW PATTERN OFFERED BY THE ECMWF
AND TO A LESSER EXTENT BY THE GFS. THERE ARE TOO MANY UNCERTAINTIES
AT THIS TIME TO WARRANT RAISING POPS TO MORE THAN 10 PCT OR SO.
