AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
537 PM CST SUN MAR 12 2006

.MESOSCALE UPDATE...
AT 23Z THE CAP INDEX HAD LOWERED ALONG THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE
OKLAHOMA PORTION OF THE DRY LINE AND CONVECTIVE TOWERS ARE
INCREASING FROM CREEK COUNTY NORTHEAST TO NORTH OF COPAN.
THESE CELLS ARE JUST FOWARD OF THE EFFECTIVE DRY LINE AND
AND LIKELY LACKING A LOW-LEVEL FLOW/CONVERGENCE ENVIRONMENT AND
ARE NOT YET EXPLODING...HOWEVER THERE IS A SURGE ON THE PARIMARY
DRYLINE PUNCHING ACROSS PAYNE AND LINCOLN COUNTIES AND WILL
BEGIN TO INTERACT WITH THE CELLS AND PROVIDE THE SUSTAINED LOW-LEVEL
FLOW ENVIRONMENT TO COMPLETE THE PROCESS OF FULL INITIATION.

THE ISTABILITY AND LOW-LEVEL SHEAR AXES REMAIN JUXTAPSOED FROM
THE MIAMI AREA BACK INTO OKMULGEE...THE WILL LIKELY BE THE ZONE
FOR BEST TORNADO POTENTIAL...ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE SLIGHTLY HIGHER
DEW POINTS AND RESULTING LOWER LCLS.

CONDITONS CONTINUE TO POINT TOWARD A SIGNIFCANT SUPERCELL EVENT ACROSS
THE AREA THIS EVENING.
