FIRE WEATHER DANGER.

	AREA...WEST OF HIGHWAY 75 IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA.
	ONSET...MID TO LATE AFTERNOON.

DISCUSSION...
A DRY LINE AND COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH EASTERN OKLAHOMA
AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THIS WILL
IGNITE THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON. MOIST AIR AHEAD
OF THE FRONT WILL CONTRIBUTE TO INSTABILITY IN EXCESS OF
2000 JOULES/PER KG. STRONG WIND FIELDS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO
SIGNIFICANT SHEAR AND THE LIKELIHOOD OF ROTATING STORM CELLS
AND THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES. THE HIGHEST LIKELIHOOD WILL
BE FAR EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND WEST CENTRAL AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS.

THUNDERSTORMS RISK WILL DIMINISH BY LATE EVENING.

WINDY CONDITIONS AND VERY DRY AIR BEHIND THE DRY LINE WILL
YIELD AN ELEVATED FIRE THREAT PRIMARILY WEST OF HIGHWAY 75
IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
ACTIVATION OF THE REGIONAL SPOTTER NETWORK EXPECTED.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
FRIDAY...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL.
SATURDAY...NO HAZARDS.
SUNDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
MONDAY...NO HAZARDS.
TUESDAY...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL...HIGH WIND POTENTIAL.
WEDNESDAY...NO HAZARDS.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE BEHIND THE COLD FRONT INTO FRIDAY
WITH COOLER CONDITIONS. ANOTHER STRONG UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL
MOVE OUT OF THE DESERT SOUTHWEST AND INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS ON
SUNDAY WITH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE ACROSS SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS ON TUESDAY...BEHIND THE DEPARTING
SYSTEM...WILL AGAIN CREATE AN INCREASED FIRE DANGER THREAT.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS AS DETAILS AND POTENTIAL IMPACTS
CONTINUE TO BE REFINED THROUGHOUT THE DAY. A REVIEW OF SEVERE
WEATHER SAFETY AND ACTION PLANS IS RECOMMENDED.
