Wind Advisory 17, NWS Tulsa, OK

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
405 AM CDT SAT JUN 7 2008

.DISCUSSION...
REGIONAL PROFILERS SHOW 50 KNOTS OF FLOW AT 925MB THIS MORNING
WITH LOW CLOUDS STREAMING NORTH OUT OF TEXAS INTO SOUTHERN OK.
REMAINS OF OLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY LOCATED JUST SOUTH OF KS BORDER
WITH SOME CU DEVELOPMENT...AND WITH TROPICAL AIRMASS MAY SEE A FEW
SUNRISE SURPRISE SHOWERS. IN FACT A FEW SHOWERS OR STORMS CANNOT
BE RULED OUT THIS AFTERNOON BUT FEEL THAT COVERAGE LIMITED ENOUGH
TO KEEP OUT OF FORECAST. OTHERWISE ANOTHER WINDY AND VERY WARM DAY
WITH A FEW GUSTS APPROACHING WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA OVER NW
SECTIONS.

CONTINUED BREEZY AND VERY WARM TONIGHT AND SUNDAY BEFORE THE NEXT
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS ARRIVES WITH A WEAK COLD FRONT SURGING
INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. STRONG SIGNAL REMAINS OF SEVERE STORMS
DEVELOPING NEAR A WAVE ON THIS FRONT ACROSS FAR NW OKLAHOMA ITO
WESTERN KANSAS...WITH THE ACTIVITY GROWING INTO AN MCS SUNDAY
EVENING AND MOVING ACROSS PORTIONS OF NE OKLAHOMA. THE EXACT
EVOLUTION OF THIS SCENARIO A LITTLE UNCLEAR AFTER THAT...BUT IN
ANY CASE HIGH POPS APPEAR TO BE WARRANTED OVER NORTHERN AREAS
SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY.

WHILE THE ACTUAL SFC FRONT WILL LIKELY WASH OUT DURING THIS
TIME...EXPECT A CONVECTIVE DRIVEN BOUNDARY TO BE SOMEWHERE OVER
THE FORECAST AREA MONDAY TO CONTINUE AS A FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL
DEVELOPMENT. HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL WILL NEED TO BE ADDRESSED AS
DETAILS BECOME MORE CLEAR DUE TO THE TROPICAL NATURE OF THE
AIRMASS RESIDING OVER THE AREA.

BOUNDARY SHOULD LIFT BACK NORTH BY TUESDAY AS ANOTHER POTENT UPPER
LOW MOVES INTO THE WESTERN STATES. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING ANOTHER
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS BY LATE IN THE WEEK.
