AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
344 PM CDT MON APR 25 2011
.DISCUSSION...
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE REGION
THIS AFTERNOON. HEAVY RAINFALL AND TRAINING OF CELLS IS ADDING TO
ONGOING MAJOR FLOODING PROBLEMS. AS A SURFACE LOW DEEPENS ACROSS
EASTERN OKLAHOMA... A WARM FRONT IS CURRENTLY SURGING NORTHWARD
INTO SOUTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA FROM THE RED RIVER... WHILE A COLD
FRONT/DRYLINE IN NORTH TEXAS ENCROACHES ON THE WARM MOIST AIR FROM
THE WEST. THE RESULTANT SEVERE WEATHER EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON
WILL CONTINUE INTO THIS EVENING. THE PERSISTENT WEATHER SYSTEM
RESPONSIBLE FOR MASSIVE RAINFALL TOTALS OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS SHOULD
FINALLY GET PUSHED SOUTHEASTWARD OUT OF THE REGION BY TOMORROW MORNING.
HOWEVER... ONE MORE DYNAMIC UPPER TROUGH WILL SWING ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL FORCE THE
RECENTLY VACATED WARM MOIST AIR TO QUICKLY RETURN TO THE AREA...
CREATING ANOTHER EPISODE OF THUNDERSTORMS... INCLUDING THE THREAT
FOR SEVERE WEATHER. AS THIS LATEST TROUGH EXITS THE REGION... ALL
PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO END FROM WEST TO EAST BY EARLY
WEDNESDAY MORNING.
DRY WEATHER WITH A WARMING TREND IS THEN EXPECTED FOR THE REMAINDER
OF THE WEEK BEFORE ANOTHER UPPER SYSTEM APPROACHES THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS OVER THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM APPEARS VERY DYNAMIC
IN THE MODELS AND WILL LIKELY POSE OUR NEXT WIDESPREAD THREAT FOR
SEVERE WEATHER. THE UPPER SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH QUICKLY...
WITH DRY CONDITIONS RETURNING TO THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY AND
MONDAY.
