Area forecast discussion, Jun 9, 3:13 AM CDT, 2 hours 5 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
313 AM CDT MON JUN 9 2008

.DISCUSSION...
FIRST AND FOREMOST WILL KEEP PRESENT CONFIGURATION OF FLASH FLOOD
WATCH GOING THROUGH 00Z AS IT APPEARS THIS ARE WILL SEE THE
HEAVIEST RAINFALL. OTHER AREAS IMMEDIATELY TO THE SOUTH AND EAST
OF THE WATCH AREA COULD ALSO SEE 2-4 INCH AMOUNTS THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON BUT ARE CURRENTLY MORE ABLE TO HANDLE ASSOCIATED RUNOFF.
THIS COULD CHANGE HOWEVER DEPENDING ON HOW THINGS UNFOLD THIS
MORNING. HAVE POPULATED QPF GRID WITH HPC GUIDANCE AND HAVE GONE
LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL POPS IN ALL AREAS FOR FIRST PERIOD.

INITIAL ROUND OF STRONG STORMS THAT PUSHED THROUGH NE OKLAHOMA AND
FAR NW ARKANSAS OVERNIGHT HAS LEFT AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY NEAR I-40.
TEMPS TO THE NORTH HAVE DROPPED INTO THE 60S-LOW 70S WHILE
READINGS STILL NEAR 80 TO THE SOUTH. SYNOPTIC COLD FRONT APPEARS TO
BE FROM CENTRAL KS INTO TX PANHANDLE WHERE DEW POINTS IN THE 40S.
CONTINUE TO SEE REGENERATION OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG
AND NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY OVER TX PANHANDLE WHERE LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE TRANSPORT IS STRONGEST AND JET DYNAMICS MOST FAVORABLE.
UPPER JET SUPPORT EXPECTED TO SHIFT EAST TOWARD NE OKLAHOMA LATER
TODAY AND WITH PRESENCE OF ABOVE MENTIONED SFC BOUNDARIES... RAIN
CHANCES REMAIN HIGH MUCH OF TODAY. ADDITIONAL 2-4 INCHES OF RAIN
POSSIBLE BEFORE ACTIVITY SHIFTS SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING.

TEMPS TO THE NORTH OF OUTFLOW BOUNDARY WILL NOT GO MUCH OF
ANYWHERE SO GUIDANCE NUMBERS LOOK OKAY...WILL GO A LITTLE WARMER
ACROSS THE FAR SOUTH. FIRST PERIOD TEMPS/POPS WILL REQUIRE SOME
LAST MINUTE ADJUSTMENT BEFORE FORECAST ISSUANCE.

BEYOND THAT...A RETURN TO WARM AND WINDY CONDITIONS MID WEEK AS
YET ANOTHER DEEP UPPER LOW MOVES INTO THE NORTHWEST U.S. POTENTIAL
FOR ANOTHER FRONT TO SAG INTO THE AREA BY THE END OF THE WEEK TO
BRING ANOTHER CHANCE OF RAIN...AT THIS TIME THE OVERALL PATTERN
DOES NOT LOOK AS FAVORABLE FOR HEAVY RAINFALL AT THAT TIME.
