AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
237 AM CDT SUN APR 26 2009

.DISCUSSION...
LOW CLOUDS WILL BE IN PLACE MUCH OF THE MORNING THROUGH CENTRAL
OKLAHOMA WHILE A STRONG UPPER-LEVEL WAVE APPROACHES FROM THE
SOUTHWEST. BY EARLY AFTERNOON, LARGE-SCALE LIFT FROM THE WAVE
WILL PROBABLY BE REALIZED NEAR THE EASTERN PANHANDLES DRY LINE.
STRONG WINDS ALOFT AND A VERY STRONG LOW-LEVEL JET WILL PROVIDE
LARGE SHEAR IN A STRONGLY BUOYANT ATMOSPHERE. THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO BE MORE WIDESPREAD THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING THAN ON
SATURDAY. ALTHOUGH A LARGE PART OF NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA HAS
RECEIVED FIVE TO SEVEN INCHES OF RAIN EARLY THIS MORNING, THERE IS
NOT YET SUFFICIENT CONFIDENCE ON WHERE TO PLACE ANY FLOOD WATCH
FOR THE COMING NIGHT, IF INDEED ONE WOULD BE NECESSARY. THIS WILL
NEED TO BE MONITORED DURING THE DAY AS IT BECOMES MORE CLEAR WHERE
SLOWING THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR. DURING THE DAY MONDAY ANOTHER
MID-LEVEL TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE CENTRAL ROCKIES IS EXPECTED TO
PUSH THE FRONT INTO OK. THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY IN SOUTH CENTRAL
AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AS SURFACE CONVERGENCE INCREASE ALONG THE
ADVANCING FRONT DURING THE AFTERNOON. UNTIL MONDAY NIGHT EPISODES
OF HEAVY RAINFALL MAY NOT BE SPATIALLY COINCIDENT WHICH WOULD
DIMINISH THE RISK OF LARGE FLOODING. MOST AREAS OF OKLAHOMA ARE
LIKELY TO SEE RAINFALL BEFORE TUESDAY MORNING. AFTER A LULL ON
TUESDAY, POPS INCREASE AGAIN WEDNESDAY AS THE FRONT MOVES NORTH
INTO OKLAHOMA. A STRONGER COLD FRONT THURSDAY NIGHT OR FRIDAY WILL
FINALLY END A CLOUDY AND RAINY WEEK.
