AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
316 PM CDT WED JUN 10 2009

.DISCUSSION...
STRONG MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE CONTINUES TO TRACK EAST OUT OF THE
SOUTHERN ROCKIES AND WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING.
SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL FOR THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HAS
BEEN COMPLICATED SOMEWHAT BY WIDESPREAD CLOUDS ASSOCIATED WITH
LARGE CONVECTIVE CLUSTER OVER WESTERN OKLAHOMA. HOWEVER...LOCAL
GRIDDED ANALYSIS CONTINUES TO SHOW A VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH
CAPES EXCEEDING 3500 IN MUCH OF THE AREA EAST OF HIGHWAY 75.

LIFT WILL INCREASE AS THE WAVE APPROACHES LATER THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS THIS AREA AND SHOULD CAUSE THUNDERSTORMS TO INCREASE AND
LIKELY BECOME SEVERE. ALSO...A WELL-ORGANIZED CLUSTER OF STORMS
OVER SOUTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA SHOULD CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE AXIS OF
DEEPEST MOISTURE NEAR THE RED RIVER AND IMPACT SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA
EARLY THIS EVENING. THUS SEVERE AND HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL STILL
EXISTS BASICALLY AREAWIDE. AS SHORTWAVE DEPARTS LATER TONIGHT
EXPECT THE ACTIVITY TO WIND DOWN. MOST OF THE AREA MISSED OUT ON
SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL LAST NIGHT AND DUE TO THE PROGRESSIVE NATURE
OF THIS SYSTEM... WIDESPREAD FLOODING PROBLEMS NOT ANTICIPATED.

SFC BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN OVER THE AREA IN SOME FORM THE REST OF
THIS WEEK WITH A MODERATE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT CONTINUING. THUS THE
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS AND ATTENDANT SEVERE THREAT WILL KEEP
GOING FOR A FEW MORE DAYS. DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT ANYTHING VERY FAR
OUT IN THIS TYPE OF PATTERN...AND WILL THUS KEEP CHANCE POPS OVER
MUCH OF THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

INDICATIONS AREA THAT A STRONG UPPER RIDGE WILL AMPLIFY OVER THE
SOUTHERN STATES EARLY TO MID NEXT WEEK AND PROVIDE US WITH AN
EARLY TASTE OF SUMMER. WILL DRY THE FORECAST OUT AT THIS POINT
WITH MOST AREAS WELL INTO THE 90S BY TUE/WED OF NEXT WEEK.

EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWESTERN ARKANSAS THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT.

A SMALL TORNADO THREAT EXISTS THIS EVENING WITH ANY STORMS NEAR THE

LIKELY REMAIN OVER THE REGION THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY WITH ADDITIONAL
ROUNDS OF SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL ALSO
CONTINUE INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK AS RICH GULF MOISTURE
REMAINS IN PLACE.
