AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
303 PM CDT THU JUL 5 2007

.DISCUSSION...
UPPER RIDGE IS LOCATED OVER THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL UNITED
STATES. HOWEVER...THERE WILL BE CONSIDERABLE WEAKNESS IN
THE RIDGE IN OUR AREA WHICH MEANS THERE WILL AT LEAST BE
SOME STORM CHANCES THROUGHOUT THE UPCOMING WEEK.

THIS AFTERNOON THERE IS A SMATTERING OF STORMS.  SOME ARE
LOCATED  ALONG A BOUNDARY IN NORTHERN OKLAHOMA AND OTHERS
ARE CLOSER TO A CIRCULATION OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN TEXAS.
THUS...HAVE SOME POPS EVERYWHERE THIS EVENING AND MAINLY IN
THE SOUTH LATER TONIGHT.

THE BOUNDARY SHOULD WASH AWAY IN THE NEAR TERM BUT THE
UPPER CIRCULATION WILL BE A PLAYER IN THE FORECAST AT LEAST
FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE WRF TRIES TO BRING A WAVE OUT OF
THE SOUTHWEST SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY BUT THE GFS DOES NOT.
RH AND QPF FROM THE WRF IS FOCUSED OVER THE SOUTH AND EAST.
GIVEN TERRAIN COULD DO SOMETHING IN THE AREA EVEN WITHOUT
A WAVE SO HAVE LOW POPS FOR IT.

SMALL POPS ARE WARRANTED FOR POP CORN CONVECTION EARLY NEXT
WEEK.  COULD SEE ENHANCED CHANCE OF RAIN DURING THE MIDDLE
OF THE WEEK AS THE GFS TRIES TO BRING A COOL FRONT INTO THE
AREA.  CHOSE NOT TO TOTALLY BITE ON IT YET AS THE 06Z RUN HAS
IT COMING WEDNESDAY AND THE 12Z THURSDAY.  THE ECMWF LOOKS
LIKE IT COULD STAY TO THE NORTH.

TEMPERATURES TRENDS THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS HAVE BEEN FOR THE
MOS BEING NEAR OR A COUPLE DEGREES TOO COOL.  HAVE TRENDED
MAX/MINS IN THIS WAY.

THIS OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHWEST AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS AS WELL AS

DISCUSSION...
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS...
PRIMARILY ASSOCIATED WITH TWO SEPARATE WEATHER FEATURES.  A
WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL FOCUS THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHEAST
OKLAHOMA INTO FAR NORTHWEST ARKANSAS...WHILE AN UPPER LOW
OVER EASTERN TEXAS PUSHES THUNDERSTORMS INTO SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA.

THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER RISK WILL BE ACROSS NORTHEAST
OKLAHOMA WHERE INSTABILITY IS HIGHEST...WITH IMPACTS BEING
DOWNBURST WINDS AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL.  OTHERWISE...
THE RELATIVELY SLOW MOVEMENT OF THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE THE RISK OF VERY HEAVY RAINS WITHIN A SHORT TIMEFRAME.
THIS RESULTS IN FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL.

ADDITIONALLY...MAJOR RIVER FLOODING CONTINUES AND THE LATEST
INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND IN RIVER FLOOD STATEMENTS /OKCFLSTSA/.

SATURDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
SUNDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
MONDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
THE REMNANTS OF THE UPPER LOW OVER TEXAS WILL REMAIN CLOSE ENOUGH TO
PROVIDE AT LEAST SMALL CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MID WEEK.

FLOODING CONCERNS WILL CONTINUE FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
