AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
649 PM CDT MON JUN 20 2011

.UPDATE...

A QUICK UPDATE WAS MADE TO THE POPS FOR THIS EVENING BASED ON
LATEST RADAR TRENDS. SEE DISCUSSION BELOW.

.DISCUSSION...
PACIFIC FRONT IS SLOWLY OVERTAKING THE DRYLINE FROM NORTH TO SOUTH
OVER NORTH CENTRAL OK ATTM. STORMS ARE FIRING BASICALLY IN A
CONTINUOUS LINE THAT IS BUILDING SOUTH WITH TIME. GIVEN THE BETTER
EXPECTED COVERAGE OF STORMS AS THIS LINE MOVES INTO NORTHEAST
OK...I HAVE INCREASED THE EVENING POPS INTO THE 60-80% RANGE. WILL
CONTINUE TO MONITOR AND ADJUST IF NEEDED AS THE EVENING CONTINUES.
A WIND GUST TO 63 KTS WAS RECORDED AT MID CONTINENT AIRPORT WITH
THE LINE...SO DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED SPIN UP
TORNADO REMAIN POSSIBLE LATER THIS EVENING.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 345 PM CDT MON JUN 20 2011/

DISCUSSION...
STRONG MID JUNE UPPER LOW NOW OVER WESTERN KANSAS WILL SUPPLY AN
INCREASINGLY STRONG SOURCE OF LIFT ACROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT. DRYLINE CURRENTLY LOCATED WEST OF INTERSTATE 35
WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR INITIAL STORM DEVELOPMENT...WITH THE SYSTEM
COLD FRONT OVERTAKING THE DRYLINE LATER TONIGHT AS THE UPPER LOW
LIFTS NORTHEASTWARD. 18Z KOUN SOUNDING SHOWED LIMITED COOLING YET
TO OCCUR AROUND THE 700MB LEVEL...AND THE LATEST RUC FORECAST
MAINTAINS THIS WARM LAYER WELL INTO THE EVENING ACROSS EASTERN
OKLAHOMA WHICH IS MUCH DIFFERENT THAN THE LATEST NAM SOLUTION.
RESULTANT IMPACT IS A GREATER UNCERTAINTY IN COVERAGE WITH THE
INITIAL STORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE DRYLINE. THAT SAID...THE
CONDITIONAL SEVERE RISK IS HIGH GIVEN AMPLE INSTABILITY AND
UNSEASONABLY STRONG WINDS WIND PROFILES. FORECAST HODOGRAPHS AND
ANTICIPATED STORM MOTIONS FAVOR CELLS QUICKLY EVOLVING INTO BROKEN
LINE SEGMENTS...AND DEEP SUB CLOUD LAYERS WILL FAVOR INTENSE
DOWNBURST WINDS. NUMEROUS LOCAL WRF RUNS HAVE CONSISTENTLY SHOW
THE POTENTIAL INTENSE WIND DAMAGE WITH THE EVENING STORMS.

AS THE COLD FRONT OVERTAKES THE DRYLINE THIS EVENING...STORM
COVERAGE IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE WITH A CONTINUED RISK OF LARGE
HAIL AND DOWNBURST WINDS WITH THE STRONGEST CORES. AN EVOLUTION
INTO A LARGER MCS IS LIKELY WITH THE STORMS EXPANDING QUICKLY
AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT AND CLEARING THE FORECAST AREA BY SUNRISE
TUESDAY.

THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT WILL BE SLOWER TO TRACK ACROSS THE AREA AND
MAY SERVE AS A FOCUS FOR TUESDAY AFTERNOON STORMS...THOUGH THE MCS
OUTFLOW WILL HAVE POTENTIAL TO SHOVE THE STORM COVERAGE EVEN
FURTHER SOUTH THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST. SHOULD STORMS
DEVELOP...STRONG INSTABILITY WOULD SUPPORT A RISK OF ISOLATED
SEVERE WEATHER. WEDNESDAY APPEARS THE BEST SHOT OF A DRY DAY FOR
ALL LOCATIONS ALONG WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES AND DRIER DEWPOINTS.

THE TEMPERATURES TRENDS FROM RECENT FORECAST WERE LARGELY RETAINED
WITH THIS FORECAST PACKAGE.

THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BEGIN TO SLOWLY MOVE NORTHWARD FROM LATE
WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL BE BENEATH SOME DEGREE OF
NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT...WHICH WILL FAVOR REPEATED MCS ACTIVITY
LIKELY IN VICINITY. NORTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA
APPEAR MOST LIKELY TO THESE MCS TRACKS THUS SLIGHTLY HIGHER POPS.

	AREA...SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS.
	ONSET...AFTER MIDNIGHT.

DISCUSSION...

A STRONGER THAN NORMAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR OVER WESTERN KANSAS WILL LIFT NORTHEAST INTO NEBRASKA BY
TUESDAY MORNING. AN ASSOCIATED DRYLINE AND PACIFIC COLD FRONT WILL
SWEEP EAST ACROSS OKLAHOMA THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. A LINE OF SCATTERED
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED TO SWEEP EAST ACROSS
NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA LATER THIS EVENING. OTHER MORE DISCREET CELLS
AHEAD OF THE LINE MAY AFFECT PORTIONS OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA AS WELL.
LARGE HAIL TO HALF DOLLAR SIZE AND DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 MPH
ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE LINE...WHILE VERY LARGE HAIL TO BASEBALL SIZE AND
LOCALLY DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE DISCREET CELLS. ISOLATED
TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE DISCREET CELLS...AND LATER ON TONIGHT
WITH THE LINE AS LOW LEVEL SHEAR INCREASES.

ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP LATE THIS EVENING
ALONG THE PACIFIC FRONT AS IT GRADUALLY OVERTAKES THE DRYLINE OVER
CENTRAL OR SOUTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA. STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO QUICKLY
ORGANIZE INTO A SQUALL LINE AND SWEEP EAST ACROSS EAST CENTRAL OR
SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS AFTER MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR A WIDESPREAD SWATH OF DAMAGING
WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 MPH IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR. THERE IS ALSO A
SMALL RISK OF TORNADOES ALONG THE SQUALL LINE IF IT CAN REMAIN
INTENSE INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.

LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE WITH THE EXPECTED LATE NIGHT
STORM COMPLEX...HOWEVER WIDESPREAD FLOODING RAINS ARE NOT EXPECTED.

WINDS WILL GUST BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH ACROSS PORTIONS OF EASTERN
OKLAHOMA THROUGH AROUND SUNSET THIS EVENING.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
ACTIVATION OF THE REGIONAL SPOTTER NETWORK EXPECTED.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
TUESDAY...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL.
WEDNESDAY...NO HAZARDS.
THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...

SCATTERED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP TUESDAY
AFTERNOON ALONG THE SLOW MOVING PACIFIC FRONT FROM NORTHWEST
ARKANSAS DOWN INTO SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. VERY LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY HAZARDS.

A NORTHWEST FLOW PATTERN WILL DEVELOP FOR THE LATTER PART OF THE
WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND. SEVERAL ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS ARE
POSSIBLE...MAINLY IN THE FORM OF COMPLEXES MOVING SOUTHEAST FROM
THE HIGH PLAINS. DAMAGING WINDS WOULD BE THE PRIMARY HAZARD.
