What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Tulsa, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 3, 3:41 PM CDT, 1 hour 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 3, 3:41 PM CDT, 1 hour 55 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
341 PM CDT SUN JUN 3 2012

.DISCUSSION...
A HIGHLY UNSTABLE AIRMASS CURRENTLY RESIDES ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA...AND MOST NOTABLY FROM FAR EASTERN OK INTO WESTERN AR.
CONVECTION WHICH HAS BEEN FESTERING ALONG THE MID LEVEL WARM
ADVECTION ZONE HAS RECENTLY BECOME MORE SURFACE BASED...AND AS IT
DOES SO THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WILL INCREASE MARKEDLY. ANY SUSTAINED
SUPERCELL WHICH CAN DEVIATE ENOUGH WOULD POSE A TORNADIC RISK.

ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP TO THE NORTHWEST OF THE
AREA LATER THIS EVENING AND CONGEAL INTO ONE OR MORE MCS/S THROUGH
THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. CHOSE TO HIGHLIGHT A ZONE ALONG
THE WESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA GIVEN EXPECTED
MOVEMENT...THOUGH CHANCES WILL REMAIN RATHER HIGH AREAWIDE. THE
VEERING LOW LEVEL FLOW OVERNIGHT SHOULD FAVOR THE MORE SEVERE
STORMS ON THE WESTERN FLANK WHERE A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF DAMAGING
WINDS WILL BE LIKELY.

THE RESULTANT OUTFLOW FROM THE OVERNIGHT STORMS...ALONG WITH A
LESSER DEFINED SYNOPTIC BOUNDARY WILL PUSH SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA
ON MONDAY. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BE SOMEWHAT MORE STABLE THAN
TODAY AND WILL JUST MAINTAIN THE LOWER POPS FOR SOUTH.

BEYOND MONDAY THE REMNANT BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN IN THE AREA BENEATH
AMPLIFYING UPPER RIDGING. THIS SURFACE FOCUS WILL SUPPORT A DAILY
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS...WITH THE BOUNDARY GRADUALLY PUSHING
SOUTH AND WEST WITH TIME. UPPER RIDGING REMAINS LARGELY IN PLACE
ACROSS THE PLAINS INTO NEXT WEEKEND THOUGH SOME MODELS SUGGEST A
WEAKNESS ALOFT REMAINS OVER THE AREA. SHOULD THIS DEVELOP THEN
DAILY THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WOULD LIKELY INCREASE A BIT. OVERALL
TEMPS WILL BE NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD.
