AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK
318 PM CDT THU AUG 8 2013

.DISCUSSION...

THE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF SIGNIFICANT FLOODING EXISTS FOR
PARTS OF FAR NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND FAR NORTHWEST ARKANSAS TONIGHT
AND INTO TOMORROW MORNING.

A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN THIS
EVENING ACROSS THE TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA PANHANDLES AND INTO
SOUTHERN KANSAS...PUSHING TO THE EAST AND NORTHEAST ALONG A
REMNANT CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM WEST CENTRAL OKLAHOMA
NORTHEASTWARD INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND SOUTHWEST MISSOURI. THERE
ARE SOME SIGNS IN THE SATELLITE DATA THAT THIS DEVELOPMENT IS
BEGINNING. THE LOCATION OF THIS BOUNDARY WILL BE CRITICAL TO PIN
POINTING THE RAINFALL BULLSEYE. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT THIS WILL
BE IN A SIMILAR LOCATION TO LAST NIGHTS...WITH THE NAM/GFS
SOLUTIONS LIKELY BEING TOO FAR SOUTH. THIS EXPECTED PLACEMENT PUTS
LIKELY 1 TO 2 INCH RAINFALL AMOUNTS /LOCALLY HIGHER/ OVER REGIONS
THAT SAW AS MUCH AS 6 TO 7 INCHES LAST NIGHT AND EARLY THIS
MORNING.

LIKE A VERY BROKEN RECORD...FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY MORNING SHOULD
FEATURE ANOTHER OVERNIGHT STORM COMPLEX WITH SMALL THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES AND COOL TEMPERATURES REMAINING THROUGH MOST OF THE
WEEKEND.

WITH NORTHWEST FLOW DEVELOPING OVER THE REGION...THE OVERNIGHT
COMPLEX POTENTIAL WILL RESUME EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH SOME HEAVY
RAIN POTENTIAL. TEMPERATURES THROUGH NEXT WEEK WILL REMAIN JUST
BELOW NORMAL IN MOST LOCALES.
