AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
1246 PM CDT MON MAY 5 2014

.UPDATE...
ALTHOUGH ELEVATED WILDFIRE CONDITIONS EXIST TODAY... A WEAK FRONT
IN NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA AND SFC TROUGH IN WESTERN OKLAHOMA HAVE
KEPT WINDS WEAKER TODAY THAN WHAT WAS SEEN ON SUNDAY. THESE BOUNDARIES
HAVE STALLED EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THE FRONT WILL LIFT BACK TO THE
NORTH TONIGHT AND THE TROUGH WILL GRADUALLY TAKE SHAPE AS A
DRYLINE ACROSS WESTERN OKLAHOMA FOR TUESDAY.

AFTER CONSULTATION WITH THE OKLAHOMA FORESTRY... THE STATE OF THE
VEGETATION ACROSS OKLAHOMA HAS CHANGED DRAMATICALLY OVER THE PAST
COUPLE OF DAYS DUE TO THE EXCEPTIONAL HEAT AND VERY DRY
CONDITIONS. THESE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO DETERIORATE ON
TUESDAY AS WINDS ONCE AGAIN STRENGTHEN AND BECOME QUITE GUSTY.
GUSTS BY MIDDAY TUESDAY WILL RANGE FROM 30/35 MPH ACROSS CENTRAL
SECTIONS OF OKLAHOMA TO NEAR 40 IN WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE STATE.
WITH THIS IN MIND PLAN ON UPGRADING THE FIRE WEATHER WATCH TO A
RED FLAG WARNING AND WILL EXPAND THE WARNING TO NEAR THE I-35
CORRIDOR FOR MUCH OF THE DAY ON TUESDAY.
