AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
236 PM CDT TUE JUL 23 2013

.DISCUSSION...

ANOTHER AFTERNOON WITH DIURNAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AND ALSO
HEAT CONCERNS. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THIS SHOULD BE THE LAST DAY
FOR THE NEXT WEEK THAT THE LATTER IS A PROBLEM.

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EARLY EVENING ACROSS
EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS...LARGELY DRIVEN BY THE
HOT AND VERY HUMID CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION. THE ATMOSPHERE IS
SUPPORTIVE OF DOWNBURST WINDS WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS. THE HEAT
AND HUMIDITY COMBO IS LEADING TO WIDESPREAD 105 TO 110 DEGREE HEAT
INDICES THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS ALL BUT FAR NORTHWEST ARKANSAS. THE
HEAT ADVISORY RUNS THROUGH 8 PM.

THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT TONIGHT...ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL KANSAS IN THE
VICINITY OF A FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THE STORMS WILL ORGANIZE INTO ONE
OR MORE CLUSTERS AND PUSH ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND
NORTHWEST ARKANSAS PRIMARILY AFTER MIDNIGHT. A DAMAGING WIND AND
HAIL THREAT WILL EXIST DUE TO UNSEASONABLY HIGH DEEP LAYER SHEAR
VALUES AND HIGH INSTABILITY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL ALSO BE A
CONCERN...ESPECIALLY ACROSS LOCATIONS NEAR THE KANSAS BORDER AND
INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS THAT HAVE SEEN A LOT OF RAIN IN THE PAST
WEEK. STORMS WILL LIKELY PERSIST INTO TOMORROW MORNING FOR A PART
OF THE AREA.

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED DIURNAL THUNDERSTORMS WILL AGAIN BE
POSSIBLE NEAR THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY...EXPECTED TO BE IN SOUTHERN
OKLAHOMA BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON...WITH A REPEAT LIKELY FOR THURSDAY
AS IT MOVES NORTHWARD.

ANOTHER OVERNIGHT/MORNING CONVECTIVE SYSTEM IS LIKELY TO DEVELOP
IN KANSAS AND MOVE ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS
SOMETIME DURING THE THURSDAY NIGHT TO FRIDAY TIME FRAME...BRINGING
MORE SEVERE WEATHER AND FLOODING POTENTIAL. THIS FRONTAL PUSH WILL
ALSO BRING COOLER AIR TO THE REGION...WITH TEMPERATURES LIKELY TO
BE 5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR THROUGH THE
WEEKEND.

JUST BELOW TO NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN FOR THE EARLY
PART OF NEXT WEEK...WITH PERHAPS ANOTHER ROUND OF OVERNIGHT STORMS
FOR MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.
