AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
404 AM CDT MON MAR 31 2008

.DISCUSSION...
A WELL ADVERTISED VERY ACTIVE WEATHER DAY IS ON TAP FOR THE FORECAST
AREA TODAY. CURRENTLY... LONG-LIVED SEVERE SUPERCELLS HAVE
TRAVELED ACROSS CENTRAL OKLAHOMA AND ARE ENTERING OSAGE...
PAWNEE... AND CREEK COUNTIES. THIS ACTIVITY WILL CLEAR THE AREA IN
THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. ALL ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO THIS
AFTERNOON.

A POTENT UPPER TROUGH WILL TRAVERSE THE PLAINS TODAY... WITH ASSOCIATED
SURFACE FEATURES FOCUSING MUCH OF THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT SQUARELY
ON THE TSA FORECAST AREA.

A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL RESIDE ACROSS THE REGION
SOUTH OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT AND EAST OF A DRYLINE. FAIRLY STRONG
AFTERNOON SURFACE HEATING... A MID LEVEL JET STREAK TRAVERSING THE
REGION... COMBINED WITH A SURFACE LOW TRACKING FROM SOUTHERN KANSAS
NORTH-EASTWARD WILL SET THE STAGE FOR SEVERE STORMS TO DEVELOP
ACROSS OUR AREA. THIS WILL LIKELY BE IN THE FORM OF DISCREET
SUPERCELLS. IN ADDITION... A SECONDARY SURFACE LOW DEVELOPING TO OUR
SOUTHWEST WILL CAUSE LOW LEVEL WINDS TO BACK... ELEVATING THE THREAT
FOR TORNADOES.

IN ADDITION... THERE WILL LIKELY BE WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL WITH
THE THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING... ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS... WHERE 2 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN
FELL YESTERDAY. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE FORTHCOMING FOR THAT
AREA.

THE FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THIS EVENING... LIKELY PROVIDING
THE FOCUS FOR A SEVERE SQUALL LINE AS IT PASSES. PLEASE REFER TO OUR
LATEST HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK AND SHORT TERM FORECAST PRODUCTS FOR THE
LATEST INFORMATION AS THIS WEATHER EVENT DEVELOPS TODAY.

IN THE WAKE OF THIS SYSTEM... CALM WEATHER WILL PREVAIL FOR A COUPLE
OF DAYS. BY LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY... ANOTHER POTENT UPPER
TROUGH WILL TRAVERSE THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. AT THE MOMENT... THIS
SYSTEM IS PROGGED TO HAVE ITS SIGHTS SET ON OUR AREA AND COULD VERY
WELL PROVIDE ANOTHER ROUND OF SEVERE WEATHER FOR THE REGION. STAY
TUNED... MID-WEEK FORECASTS WILL BE UPDATED AS NEW INFORMATION
BECOMES AVAILABLE.

DISCUSSION...
A POTENT UPPER TROUGH WILL TRAVERSE THE CENTRAL PLAINS TODAY. AN
ASSOCIATED STRONG MID LEVEL JET WILL SERVE TO ENHANCE LIFT ACROSS
THE REGION. AT THE SURFACE... A WARM... MOIST... AND UNSTABLE AIR
MASS... EXACERBATED BY GOOD AFTERNOON HEATING... WILL RESIDE
ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN ARKANSAS. AN APPROACHING COLD
FRONT TO OUR NORTH AND A DRYLINE TO OUR WEST WILL SET THE STAGE
FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER TODAY.

THE FIRST ROUND IS ALREADY ONGOING THIS MORNING... GENERALLY NORTH
OF INTERSTATE 44. THIS IS THE REMNANT COMPLEX FROM OVERNIGHT
SUPERCELLS INITIATED SUNDAY EVENING IN CENTRAL OKLAHOMA. THIS
SEVERE CONVECTION WILL EXIT THE REGION LATER THIS MORNING.

THE MAIN EVENT WILL BE LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING... AS
DISCREET SUPERCELLS DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA. WITH A SURFACE LOW
DEVELOPING TO OUR SOUTHWEST... LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL TEND TO BACK
TO THE SOUTHEAST WHICH WILL TRANSLATE TO AN ENHANCED TORNADO
THREAT ALONG WITH VERY LARGE HAIL. THIS WILL ALSO PRODUCE A THREAT
FOR VERY HEAVY RAINFALL. AREAS IN SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND WEST
CENTRAL ARKANSAS THAT RECEIVED EXCESSIVE RAINFALL YESTERDAY WILL
BE AT A PARTICULAR RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING TODAY.

THE SEVERE WEATHER MODE WILL EVOLVE INTO MORE OF A LINEAR SQUALL
LINE THREAT THIS EVENING AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHWARD THROUGH
THE REGION. LARGE HAIL WILL REMAIN A THREAT... ALONG WITH DAMAGING
STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION LIKELY NEEDED.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
TUESDAY...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL.
WEDNESDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
THURSDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL...HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL.
FRIDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL.
SATURDAY...NO HAZARDS.
SUNDAY...NO HAZARDS.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
AFTER A BRIEF RESPITE... ANOTHER POTENT UPPER TROUGH WILL APPROACH
THE REGION LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. CURRENTLY... ANOTHER
ROUND OF SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS TO BE WITHIN THE REALM OF
POSSIBILITY AS A COLD FRONT IS PROGGED TO ENCROACH ON A MOIST AND
UNSTABLE AIRMASS.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
EMERGENCY MANAGERS SHOULD CLOSELY MONITOR FORECASTS FOR THE LATEST
INFORMATION REGARDING THIS NEXT POSSIBLE SEVERE WEATHER EVENT.
