AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
917 PM CDT THU JUN 5 2008

.UPDATE...

&&

.DISCUSSION...
THE ONLY CHANGES TO THE GRIDS THIS EVENING HAVE BEEN TO RAISE THE
QPF ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA AND TWEAK THE SHORT TERM
PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND COVERAGE. A LINE OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS
IS CURRENTLY MOVING INTO OSAGE AND PAWNEE COUNTIES. THIS ACTIVITY
HAS WEAKENED OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF HOURS... BUT WILL STILL POSE
A THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER.

WE CONTINUE TO EXPECT SIGNIFICANT SEVERE STORMS... INCLUDING THE
POSSIBILITY OF TORNADOES... ACROSS A WIDE AREA OF EASTERN
OKLAHOMA OVERNIGHT AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES CLOSER. THERE ALSO
CONTINUES TO BE A THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING AS THUNDERSTORMS WITH
HEAVY RAINFALL TRAIN NORTHEASTWARD OVER THE SAME AREAS... AS THE CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY TRANSLATES SLOWLY EASTWARD.

UPDATED PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN SENT.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 304 PM CDT THU JUN 5 2008/

DISCUSSION...
THE STAGE HAS BEEN SET FOR SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS
NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
TORNADOES...LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS AND VERY HEAVY RAIN
WILL ALL BE A CONCERN DURING THIS EVENT.

THE DRY LINE CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN NEBRASKA TO EAST OF KDDC AND INTO WESTERN
OKLAHOMA. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALREADY DEVELOPED ALONG THE DRY
LINE ACROSS KANSAS AND NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA. FURTHER THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED ALONG THE DRY LINE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AS A POTENT MID-LEVEL LOW MOVES INTO THE PLAINS WITH
THE AID OF A 130 KT 300 MB JET AND THE CAP ERODES. THE AIRMASS
IN ADVANCE OF THE DRY LINE IS CONDUCIVE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
WITH CAP VALUES AROUND 3000 J/KG AND LI VALUES AROUND -6. THE
18Z SOUNDING OUT OF OUN INDICATED 0-3KM STORM RELATIVE HELICITY
OF AROUND 400 M2/S2...WHICH OF COURSE IS MORE THAN ADEQUATE
FOR TORNADIC SUPERCELLS. ANY DISCRETE SUPERCELLS THIS EVENING
WILL HAVE A HIGH TORNADO POTENTIAL. EXPECT THE MAIN THREAT FOR
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE REGION MID TO LATE EVENING AS
THE STORMS LINE OUT...AT THAT POINT WIND GUSTS TO 80 MPH AND
LARGE HAIL WILL BECOME THE PRIMARY CONCERN. HOWEVER...TORNADOES
WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE WITH BOOKEND VORTICIES WITHIN THE BOW ECHOES.
THESE STORMS WILL MAINLY AFFECT EASTERN OKLAHOMA. HOWEVER...THEY
COULD MOVE INTO NORTHWESTERN ARKANSAS LATER TONIGHT AND INTO
FRIDAY MORNING. THESE STORMS WILL ALSO BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
VERY HEAVY RAIN IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THIS WILL LIKELY
CAUSE LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING.

THE THREAT FOR STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO
FRIDAY AS TONIGHTS STORMS LAY DOWN OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND STORMS
RE-IGNITE WITH AFTERNOON HEATING ON FRIDAY.

THE WEEKEND LOOKS TO BE QUIETER AS HIGH PRESSURE PREVAILS AT THE
SURFACE AND ALOFT.

HAVE LEFT THE FORECAST DRY THROUGH THURSDAY. HOWEVER...MAY NEED
ADD POPS FOR NORTHERN SECTIONS OF THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY
AS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY FLIRTS WITH THE AREA. WILL GO WITH CHANCE POPS
FOR PORTIONS OF THE AREA THURSDAY AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY MAKES A
MORE SIGNIFICANT PUSH THROUGH THE AREA WITH THE AID OF A MID-LEVEL
SHORTWAVE.

A VERY WARM... MOIST... AND UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT IS ALREADY IN
PLACE ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA... SUPPORTING STRONG UPDRAFTS. STRONG
SHEAR AND HIGH HELICITY VALUES WILL SUPPORT STORM SCALE ROTATION.
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREATS WILL RUN THE ENTIRE RANGE FROM

ADDITION... TRAINING OF CELLS WILL ALSO POSE A THREAT FOR LOCALIZED
FLOODING.
