AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
1109 PM CST FRI MAR 8 2013

.AVIATION...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO WESTERN OKLAHOMA
FROM THE TEXAS PANHANDLE THIS EVENING. THIS CONVECTION WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEAST/EAST ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD. MVFR AND IFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST UNTIL A
DRYLINE MOVES INTO WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA TOMORROW
AFTERNOON. BREEZY SOUTHWEST CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WEST OF THE
DRYLINE... BUT DRIER LOW-LEVEL AIR WILL ALSO DIMINISH THE LOW
CEILINGS.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 917 PM CST FRI MAR 8 2013/

DISCUSSION...
CONVECTION HAS BEGUN OVER THE TEXAS PANHANDLE THIS EVENING. THESE
STORMS WILL LIKELY MOVE INTO WESTERN OKLAHOMA BEFORE
MIDNIGHT...THEN CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND MOVE EAST OVERNIGHT AND
SATURDAY. A STRONG FLOW OF LOW-LEVEL AIR FROM THE SOUTH WILL BRING
RATHER HUMID AIR INTO THE REGION...RESULTING IN NEARLY STEADY
TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT.

THE CURRENT FORECAST LOOKS GOOD...AND NO CHANGES ARE PLANNED THIS
EVENING.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 549 PM CST FRI MAR 8 2013/

AVIATION...
MOST LOCATIONS WILL REMAIN MVFR OR IFR UNTIL TOMORROW AFTERNOON IN
THE WEST WHEN A DRYLINE WILL MOVE INTO WESTERN OKLAHOMA AND
WESTERN NORTH TEXAS ALLOWING DRIER LOW-LEVEL AIR TO MOVE IN. WILL
LIKELY SEE SOME BR AND/OR DZ DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA WITH
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 225 PM CST FRI MAR 8 2013/

DISCUSSION...
MAIN FOCUS WAS ON THE STORM SYSTEM THAT WILL AFFECT THE AREA THIS
WEEKEND.

UPPER LOW WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH THE SOUTHWEST U.S. INTO THE
CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS THIS WEEKEND. THIS WILL BRING SHOWERS/STORMS
TO THE FA TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY. CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP
WEST OF THE FA THIS EVENING THEN MOVE INTO WESTERN PARTS OF THE FA
LATER THIS EVENING/OVERNIGHT. THE SHOWERS/STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO
MOVE EAST OVERNIGHT. SOME OF THE STORMS THIS EVENING MAY BECOME
STRONG TO SEVERE IN FAR WESTERN PARTS OF THE FA BUT WEAKEN AS MOVE
EAST INTO WEAKER INSTABILITY. A DRYLINE/PACIFIC COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY... WITH ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/STORMS
DEVELOPING ALONG THIS BOUNDARY. AS THIS BOUNDARY BRINGS IN DRIER
AIR... RAIN WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE FROM WEST TO EAST. THE HEAVIEST
AND MOST WIDESPREAD RAIN SATURDAY AFTERNOON/NIGHT WILL LIKELY BE
EAST OF I-35. RAIN CHANCES ARE EXPECTED TO LINGER IN SE PARTS OF THE
FA SUNDAY AND A LIGHT RAIN/SNOW MIX MAY BE POSSIBLE ACROSS PARTS OF
NORTHERN OK EARLY SUNDAY MORNING BEFORE PRECIPITATION COMPLETELY
ENDS IN THIS AREA.

STRONG WEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED BEHIND THE DRYLINE/PACIFIC COLD FRONT
SATURDAY. THESE STRONG WINDS ALONG WITH THE DRIER AIR MOVING IN
BEHIND THIS BOUNDARY WILL ELEVATE THE WILDFIRE POTENTIAL ACROSS
PARTS OF WESTERN OK AND WESTERN NORTH TX SATURDAY AFTERNOON. A COLD
FRONT WILL THEN MOVE INTO THE REGION SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY WITH
STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS EXPECTED BEHIND THE FRONT. BOTH THE WINDS
BEHIND THE BOUNDARY DURING THE DAY SATURDAY AND THEN THE WINDS
SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY COULD BE STRONG ENOUGH FOR A WIND ADVISORY AND
FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD IN SOME LOCATIONS.

COLDER AIR WILL MOVE IN BEHIND THE FRONT LEADING TO A COOL DAY
SUNDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 40S TO MID 50S. HOWEVER... THIS COOL
DOWN WILL BE BRIEF WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO BE BACK INTO THE
60S AND 70S BY TUESDAY. AFTER THIS WEEKEND THE WEATHER PATTERN WILL
BE RATHER BENIGN/QUIET THROUGH AT LEAST LATE NEXT WEEK... WITH MILD
TO WARM TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE WEEK.
