FORECAST CHALLENGE REMAINS THUNDERSTORM CHANCES AND ATTENDANT
SEVERE WEATHER THREAT OVERNIGHT. ONCE AGAIN UNCERTAINTIES ABOUND
WITH THE FINER DETAILS OF HOW THINGS WILL EVOLVE OVER THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS...BUT TWO AREAS OF INTEREST AT THE MOMENT ARE
CONVECTION BLOSSOMING OVER WEST CENTRAL OK AND BAND OF STORMS
ACROSS SE KANSAS. SHORT RANGE HI RES MODELS HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT
WITH THE WESTERN OK STORMS GROWING INTO SOUTHEAST MOVING MCS THAT
GENERALLY REMAINS WEST OF OUR AREA...WHILE DEVELOPING LARGE
CLUSTER OF CONVECTION OVER NE OKLAHOMA FROM 03-06Z. SE KANSAS
STORMS HAVE SHOWN SIGNS OF BACK BUILDING AND SHIFTING SOUTH IN LAST
HOUR. AGAIN SEE NO COMPELLING REASON TO CHANGE THE FORECAST FOR
OVERNIGHT...BUT WILL MAKE SOME FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS TO POPS THROUGH
06Z AND RAISE THEM BACK UP NEAR THE KANSAS BORDER THROUGH 06Z.
TORNADO WATCH WILL CONTINUE THROUGH 2 AM.

DISCUSSION...

THE 00Z TAF DISCUSSION CAN BE FOUND BELOW.

AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM.
ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS IS EXPECTED TONIGHT...AS STORMS THAT ARE
CURRENTLY FORMING OUT WEST EVENTUALLY GROW INTO ONE OR MORE
CLUSTERS THAT MOVE EAST OR SOUTHEAST DURING THE NIGHTTIME HOURS.
TEMPO GROUPS WILL ATTEMPT TO HIT THE WINDOW OF GREATEST
THREAT...HOWEVER THIS MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED LATER GIVEN THE
LOWER THAN AVERAGE CONFIDENCE IN THE FORECAST. VFR CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL OUTSIDE OF STORM ACTIVITY AND WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE
LIGHT AND VARIABLE FOR THE BULK OF THE PERIOD.

LACY

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 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.

NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. THE BETTER CHANCE OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL
ARRIVE LATE THIS EVENING AS STORMS OVER WESTERN OKLAHOMA WILL
LIKELY GROW INTO ONE OR MORE THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES AS THEY MOVE
