DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO AREAS WHERE WATER COVERS THE ROAD TO
UNKNOWN DEPTHS. IT ONLY TAKES TWO FEET OF RUSHING WATER TO CARRY AWAY
MOST SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES AND PICKUPS. TAKE A DIFFERENT ROUTE TO
REACH YOUR DESTINATION OR WAIT UNTIL THE WATER RECEDES. REMEMBER...
MOST FLOOD RELATED DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES.

BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS HARDER TO RECOGNIZE THE
DANGERS OF FLASH FLOODS. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT AT NIGHT TO TELL HOW
MUCH WATER IS ON THE ROADS. IT ONLY TAKES TWO FEET OF RUSHING WATER
TO CARRY AWAY MOST SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES AND PICKUPS. MOTORISTS
SHOULD NOT DRIVE THROUGH WATER OF UNKNOWN DEPTH. TAKE A DIFFERENT
ROUTE TO REACH YOUR DESTINATION OR WAIT UNTIL THE WATER RECEDES.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 23, 9:47 PM CDT, 3 hours 59 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
947 PM CDT WED APR 23 2008

.UPDATE...
CONVECTION THIS EVENING HAS BEEN MOST PREVALENT NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 40. WITH LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING...SEVERE THREAT HAS
DECREASED ACROSS THE AREA. LARGE THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX THAT THE
MODELS HAD MOVING NORTHEAST ACROSS THE REGION HAS STAYED MAINLY
SOUTH OF THE RED RIVER. SOME SUBSIDENCE JUST NORTH OF THE MCS HAS
LIMITED CONVECTION IN THIS AREA. EXPECT THE MCS TO CONTINUE ON ITS
EASTWARD PATH /BELIEVE 00Z WRF IS STILL TOO FAR NORTH WITH THIS
FEATURE/...AND WITH LITTLE RAIN FROM EARLIER THIS EVENING...HAVE
DECIDED TO CANCEL THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH APPROXIMATELY SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 40.

FURTHER NORTH...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE IN RESPONSE TO
THE STRENGTHENING LLJ. THIS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE DURING THE
NIGHT AND INTO THE MORNING HOURS...DEVELOPING INTO A SECONDARY
COMPLEX. ELEVATED INSTABILITY WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR AN ISOLATED
HAIL OR WIND THREAT...THOUGH HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLASH FLOODING
WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE MAIN CONCERN. ADDITIONAL RAINFALL OF OVER
2 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE...WHICH WILL ONLY WORSEN THE ONGOING
FLASH FLOODING ACROSS NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS.

HAVE UPDATED QPF AND POP GRIDS TO REFLECT LATEST THINKING...AND
MADE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 249 PM CDT WED APR 23 2008/

DISCUSSION...
SEVERE WEATHER AND HEAVY RAINFALL CONCERNS HIGHLIGHT THE FORECAST
OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

A VERY MUDDLED SURFACE PATTERN EXISTS OVER THE SRN PLAINS...WITH A
WEAK STATIONARY FRONT NOTED NEAR THE RED RIVER AND A CONVECTIVELY
INDUCED BOUNDARY STRETCHED ACROSS SRN KS INTO SRN MO. THE BULK OF
THE CONVECTION HAS REMAINED TO OUR W AND N THROUGH
MID-AFTERNOON...BUT WE/RE BEGINNING TO SEE SCATTERED DEVELOPMENT
OVER ERN OK AND WRN AR WHERE THE ATMOSPHERE HAS BECOME QUITE UNSTABLE
AND UNCAPPED. AS SYNOPTIC-SCALE LIFT INCREASES AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE (CURRENTLY MOVING INTO THE TX
PANHANDLE)...CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO EXPAND IN COVERAGE ACROSS ERN
OK THIS EVENING. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD BE MAINTAINED BY A
STRENGTHENING 40-50KT SLY/SWLY LOW-LEVEL JET...WITH CONVECTION
EVENTUALLY DEVELOPING INTO NW AR LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT.

FORECAST CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS SUGGEST THAT THESE STORMS WILL HAVE
THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE LARGE HAIL LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THE
EVENING...ALTHOUGH FOCUS MAY SHIFT TO MORE OF A HEAVY RAINFALL
SCENARIO OVERNIGHT. BOTH THE GFS AND NAM ARE SUFFERING FROM
CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK...WITH THE GFS CONSISTENT IN BLOWING UP A QPF
BULLSEYE OVER SE OK WHILE THE NAM IS FARTHER N ACROSS NE OK. THESE
FEEDBACK SIGNALS...HOWEVER...ARE OFTEN INDICATIVE OF THE POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY IF SEEN IN SUBSEQUENT RUNS. GIVEN
THE STRONG LOW-LEVEL JET AND GRADUALLY INCREASING PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUES...WON/T BE SURPRISED TO SEE THE ACTIVITY DEVELOP INTO ONE OR
MORE MCS/S AND THEY TRACK ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. HIGHEST FLASH
FLOOD POTENTIAL WILL BE ACROSS FAR NE OK AND NW AR WHERE FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE VALUES ARE THE LOWEST (AND HPC QPF GUIDANCE THE
HIGHEST)...BUT WENT AHEAD WITH A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE
AREA TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY WHERE
THE HEAVY RAINFALL WILL EVENTUALLY MATERIALIZE.

THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE EXITING NW AR BY MID-LATE MORNING ON
THURSDAY. DROPPED POPS DOWN TO SLIGHT CHANCE BY THE AFTERNOON...AS
THE ATMOSPHERE WILL LIKELY REMAIN CAPPED.

MODELS CONSISTENT WITH TIMING OF NEXT COLD FRONT...WHICH SHOULD
APPROACH THE REGION FRIDAY MORNING AND QUICKLY MOVE THROUGH BY
FRIDAY AFTERNOON. WOULD EXPECT CONVECTION TO DEVELOP NEAR THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY...AND SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY
OVER SE OK/WRN AR WHERE BETTER MOISTURE WILL RESIDE.

EXTENDED...SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
ECMWF/GFS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW WILL DEVELOP
OVER MUCH THE PLAINS INTO THE OH/TN/MS RIVER VALLEYS OVER THE
WEEKEND. THIS WILL DRIVE A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT
INTO SUNDAY...WITH COOLER AND DRIER WEATHER EXPECTED FOR
SUNDAY/MONDAY. A WARMING TREND WILL ENSUE THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK AS MID-LEVEL HEIGHTS RISE AND SLY FLOW RETURNS.

DISCUSSION...
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT
NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS DURING THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. WITH A MOIST ATMOSPHERE IN PLACE...THIS COMPLEX OF STORMS WILL
BRING HEAVY RAIN TO THE AREA. THE FLASH FLOODING THREAT WILL
CONTINUE PRIMARILY NORTH OF INTERSTATE 40 DURING THE OVERNIGHT AND
EARLY MORNING HOURS AS THESE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
AN ADDITIONAL 2 OR MORE INCHES OF RAINFALL. SEE THE FLASH FLOOD
WATCH /OKCFFATSA/ FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. ELEVATED INSTABILITY
WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR AN ISOLATED THREAT OF LARGE HAIL AND STRONG
WINDS.

FURTHER SOUTH...THE NORTHERN EDGE OF A THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX IN
NORTH TEXAS WILL AFFECT FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. THERE WILL ALSO BE
A LIMITED THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
WITH THIS ACTIVITY.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE POTENTIAL OF HEAVY RAINFALL WILL LINGER

CHANCE OF ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT...
BUT BETTER CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS AND SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE
FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY EVENING AS A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE AREA.
YET ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT
AND SUNDAY BRINGING ANOTHER CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
