Area forecast discussion, Mar 2, 11:16 PM CST, 1 hour 45 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
1116 PM CST SUN MAR 2 2008

.MESOSCALE UPDATE...
THE SUPERCELLS MOVING ACROSS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA
HAVE MOVED NORTH OF THE GREATEST LOW-LEVEL INSTABILITY
AND HAVE LOST ORGANIZATION MOVING INTO CENTRAL
LE FLORE COUNTY.

THE SQUALL LINE CONTINUES SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA.  EXPERIMENTAL WIND AND HAIL FORECAST
GRIDS SHOW VALUES RIGHT AT SEVERE LEVELS.  THIS
SEVERE POTENTIAL WILL CONTINUE WITH THE LINE OF STORMS
INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

THERE REMAINS CONCERN THAT ISOLATED CELLS COULD DEVELOP
AHEAD OF THE LINE IN FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND BECOME
SUPERCELLS AND THIS WILL BE MONITORED.  IN ADDITION...
VERY STRONG LOW-LEVEL SHEAR EXISTS...SO LOW-LEVEL
ROTATION COULD DEVELOP WITH ANY OF THE STRONGER
CELLS AND NEAR BOWING LINE SIGEMENTS.

FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE OVERNIGHT
AS THE LINE OF STORMS MERGES WITH THE EXPANDING AREA
OF THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF THE LINE.

DISCUSSION...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT.
AHEAD OF IT THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE WITH THE
THREAT FOR WIND AND HAIL.  THERE IS SOME POTENTIAL
FOR A BRIEF TORNADO WITH ANY STORM IN THE AREA GIVEN
THE VERY STRONG AND TURNING LOW-LEVEL WINDS.  THIS
LOW-LEVEL WIND SHEAR WILL BE MAXIMIZED IN THE ARKANSAS
RIVER VALLEY IN EXTREME EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND WEST-CENTRAL
ARKANSAS.  PERSONS IN SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNINGS

IN THESE CIRCUMSTANCES CAN DEVELOP SUDDENLY.

WIDESPREAD TONIGHT WITH THE MOST PROLONGED RAINS
EXPECTED FROM SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS.

TO AROUND 5 INCHES IN SOME AREAS.  FLOODING OF MAIN STEM RIVERS
AND FLASH FLOODING WILL OCCUR IN THE AREAS RECEIVING THE HEAVIEST
RAIN.

AS COLD AIR MOVES IN BEHIND THE FRONT AND THE MAIN UPPER-LEVEL
SYSTEM APPROACHES...WINTRY PRECIPITATION WILL DEVELOP.  THERE IS
THE POTENTIAL FOR A BAND OF HEAVY SNOW TO DEVELOP IN
PORTIONS OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS.  BURSTS
OF VERY HEAVY SNOW WITH THUNDER WILL BE POSSIBLE...CAUSING
ACCUMULATIONS DESPITE THE WARM GROUND CONDITIONS.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
ALL EMERGENCY AGENCIES IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS
SHOULD CLOSE FOLLOW THE LATEST INFORMATION FOR THIS MAJOR STORM AND
