AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
745 PM CDT MON APR 7 2008

.DISCUSSION...
JUST SENT AN UPDATE TO INCLUDE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 170 AND
ADD SEVERE TO ZONE WORDING. WARM FRONT EXTENDING FROM ABOUT SWO TO
NEAR MKO THIS EVENING. WHAT APPEARS TO BE ELEVATED SUPERCELLS HAVE
DEVELOPED JUST NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT AND HAVE PRODUCED 1.5 IN CH
HAIL IN PAYNE COUNTY. EXPECT ACTIVITY TO INCREASE ALONG AND NORTH
OF THE WARM FRONT OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS AS WAA
STRENGTHENS. COULD BE A BRIEF WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR A SFC
BASED STORM ALONG THE WARM FRONT AND GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF SRH...
THERE REMAINS AT LEAST SMALL TORNADO THREAT TO THE SOUTHWEST OF
TULSA AREA. ELSEWHERE VERY LITTLE IN THE WAY OF SFC BASED
INSTABILITY AVAILABLE AND WILL BE DEALING MAINLY WITH ELEVATED
HAIL PRODUCERS.

HAVE LEFT POP CONFIGURATION AS IS WITH THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATED
NORTH OF THE EXPECTED WARM FRONTAL POSITION LATER TONIGHT.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 423 PM CDT MON APR 7 2008/

DISCUSSION...
SURFACE LOW OVER THE NEW MEXICO/TEXAS BORDER AT THIS TIME WITH
WARM FRONT EXTENDING EAST FROM THE LOW INTO WEST CENTRAL OKLAHOMA
TO SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. AS THE LOW MOVES EAST OVERNIGHT...THE WARM
FRONT WILL LIFT NORTH INTO NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS CURRENTLY DEVELOPING OVER NORTHWEST TEXAS WILL MOVE
NORTHEAST WITH ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT LIKELY OVER WESTERN OKLAHOMA
NEAR THE WARM FRONT OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. ALL OF THIS ACTIVITY
WILL SPREAD AND DEVELOP NORTHEAST OVERNIGHT WITH HIGH POPS
WARRANTED IN NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA.

SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY WILL BE LACKING IN OUR FORECAST AREA
BUT ELEVATED INSTABILITY WILL BE MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR HAIL.
THE TORNADO THREAT LOOKS VERY MINIMAL THIS FAR EAST DUE TO THE
LACK OF SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY LEADING TO THE STORMS BECOMING
MORE ELEVATED AS THEY MOVE INTO OUR FORECAST AREA.

SHADED THE FORECAST TOWARDS THE FASTER ECMWF WITH THE COLD FRONT
LATE TONIGHT AND TUESDAY. THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL WILL INCREASE
FURTHER SOUTH ALONG THE FRONT TUESDAY MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON
WITH SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE AHEAD OF THE FRONT ESPECIALLY BY LATE
MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON.

THE FRONT WILL HANG UP JUST SOUTH OF THE RED RIVER TUESDAY NIGHT
WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY TO CONTINUE IN ITS VICINITY.
THE FRONT WILL BEGIN TO LIFT NORTH LATER WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AS THE NEXT STRONG UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM
THE SOUTHWEST. THIS WILL RESULT IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
SPREADING BACK NORTH ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. GULF
MOISTURE WILL BE PLENTIFUL AND SOME EXCESSIVE RAINFALL AMOUNTS MAY
BE SEEN WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING. AT THIS POINT...IT
APPEARS THE HIGHEST RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE FROM SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL LIKELY
BE NEEDED WITH LATER FORECAST ISSUANCES.

A BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION MAY BE SEEN FOR A TIME LATER THURSDAY
MORNING INTO EARLY THURSAY AFTERNOON BEFORE STORMS REDEVELOP ALONG
A DRYLINE/PACIFIC COLD FRONT THAT WILL SWEEP QUICKLY ACROSS THE
AREA. THE ECMWF IS FAIRLY QUICK MOVING THE DRY AIR IN WITH THE
CANADIAN BEING A BIT SLOWER. IF THE SLOWER SOLUTION
VERIFIES...SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE LIKELY THURSDAY
AFTERNOON PERHAPS LINGERING INTO THE EVENING IN THE EASTERN PART
OF THE FORECAST AREA.

ONCE THIS SYSTEM PASSES...DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL FOR THE REST OF
THE FORECAST PERIOD ALTHOUGH WRAPAROUND CLOUDINESS MAY PERSIST FOR
A COUPLE DAYS FOLLOWING ITS PASSAGE.

STAYED CLOSE TO GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES OR A BLEND OF THE
GUIDANCE/ECMWF THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST PERIOD.

ONLY A SMALL TORNADO THREAT EXISTS...MAINLY WEST OF U.S. HIGHWAY 75.

SHEAR AND INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.

AFTER A RELATIVE BREAK IN THE ACTION TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY

THURSDAY NIGHT BRINGING TRANQUIL WEATHER TO THE AREA INTO
