AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
237 PM CDT WED MAR 25 2015

.DISCUSSION...
PRIMARY ISSUE IS THE SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL TONIGHT. SATELLITE
SHOWS STORM DEVELOPMENT WILL LIKELY BE OCCURRING SOON. LARGE HAIL
LOOKS TO BE THE PRIMARY THREAT IN THE AREA GIVEN THE RELATIVELY
HIGH CLOUDS BASES EXPECTED. STORMS WILL BE MOST NUMEROUS ALONG THE
FRONT... BUT ISOLATED STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE COLD FRONT
AS WELL. STORMS WILL LIKELY EVOLVE INTO A LINE ALONG THE COLD
FRONT AS IT BARRELS SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA.

ALSO OF CONCERN ARE THE VERY STRONG NORTH WINDS EXPECTED BEHIND
THE FRONT... ESPECIALLY IN WEST CENTRAL OKLAHOMA WHERE WE UPGRADED
TO THE HIGH WIND WARNING EARLIER THIS EVENING. GUSTS OF 60 MPH
WILL CERTAINLY BE POSSIBLE. THESE WINDS WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH
EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.

COOLER WEATHER IS EXPECTED THURSDAY AND FRIDAY BEHIND THIS FRONT
WITH A SLIGHT WARMING THIS WEEKEND. THE 12Z GFS IS MUCH MORE
AGGRESSIVE WITH PRECIPITATION EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH AN UPPER TROUGH
APPROACHING THE AREA. THIS SOLUTION IS STILL QUITE AN OUTLIER WITH
OTHER MEDIUM RANGE MODELS PERSISTING WITH NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT...
SO HAVE NOT MADE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE EXTENDED PERIODS.

1149 AM CDT WED MAR 25 2015

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN...
WESTERN...CENTRAL...AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA...AND WESTERN NORTH
TEXAS.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...

.THUNDERSTORMS...
THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA.
THERE IS ALSO A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE STORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF
NORTH TEXAS... AND SOUTHERN... CENTRAL AND WESTERN OKLAHOMA.

.LOCATION...
THE MODERATE RISK AREA IS SOUTH AND EAST OF A LINE FROM PONCA CITY
TO KINGFISHER TO CHICKASHA... AND NORTH OF A LINE FROM CHICKASHA TO
PURCELL TO SEMINOLE. THE SLIGHT RISK AREA IS EAST OF A LINE FROM
MEDFORD TO SEILING TO CLINTON TO HOBART OKLAHOMA TO VERNON AND
SEYMOUR TEXAS.

.TIMING...
THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FROM 3 PM
THROUGH MIDNIGHT.

.IMPACTS...
LARGE HAIL TO THE SIZE OF TENNIS BALLS AND WIND GUSTS TO 70 MPH
WILL BE THE MAIN HAZARDS WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS. FREQUENT
CLOUD-TO-GROUND LIGHTNING AND HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE
CONCERNS.

.DISCUSSION...
A WEAK BOUNDARY THAT PUSHED THROUGH MUCH OF THE AREA ON TUESDAY
IS MOVING NORTH THROUGH NORTHERN OKLAHOMA LATE THIS MORNING. AS
THIS OCCURS INCREASING AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE WILL SPREAD NORTHWARD
ACROSS THE AREA. BY MID AFTERNOON... THIS BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO
BE NEAR THE OKLAHOMA KANSAS BORDER WITH A MODERATELY UNSTABLE
AIRMASS TO THE SOUTH OF IT ACROSS MUCH OF OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN
NORTH TEXAS. DAYTIME HEATING WILL AID IN INITIATING THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT NEAR THIS BOUNDARY BY MID AFTERNOON. A FEW OF THESE
STORMS WILL LIKELY BECOME SEVERE... CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL AND
STRONG WIND GUSTS.

MEANWHILE... AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE FROM THE CENTRAL
ROCKIES OUT INTO THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS. AS THIS OCCURS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL BEGIN TO SURGE SOUTH AND EAST ACROSS
OKLAHOMA. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG
THE FRONT BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON FROM PORTIONS OF NORTHERN INTO
WESTERN OKLAHOMA.

THERE IS ALSO A CHANCE THAT ISOLATED STORMS MAY DEVELOP ON A
DRYLINE IN SOUTHWEST OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN SECTIONS OF NORTH
TEXAS... HOWEVER A WARM LAYER OF AIR ALOFT WILL KEEP THE CHANCE OF
STORMS LOWER ALONG THE DRYLINE AND MAY PREVENT STORM DEVELOPMENT
COMPLETELY IN SOUTHWEST OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS.

INSTABILITY AND WIND SHEAR WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR SEVERE STORMS
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. THE
STORMS ALONG THE FRONT ARE EXPECTED TO QUICKLY DEVELOP INTO A LINE
OF STORMS THAT WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN
OKLAHOMA. SCATTERED STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE FARTHER SOUTH AS THE
FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA DURING THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
PERIOD.

.STRONG WINDS...
VERY STRONG AND GUSTY NORTH WINDS ARE EXPECTED LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT BEHIND A COLD FRONT. WINDS MAY GUST OVER
60 MPH IN SOME AREAS OF WESTERN OKLAHOMA. USE CAUTION IF
TRAVELING... ESPECIALLY ON EAST- WEST ROADS. SEE WIND ADVISORY AND
HIGH WIND WARNING FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

.FIRE WEATHER...
A DRYLINE WILL WORK EAST ACROSS WESTERN NORTH TEXAS AND EXTREME
SOUTHWEST OKLAHOMA THIS AFTERNOON. THIS DRIER AIR WILL COMBINE
WITH VERY WARM TEMPERATURES AND STRONG WINDS TO ELEVATE WILDFIRE
CONCERNS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THIS EVENING.

.COLD TEMPERATURES...
TEMPERATURES WILL DROP BEHIND A COLD FRONT TONIGHT. SOME LOCATIONS
OF NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA WILL DROP TO NEAR FREEZING FOR A SHORT TIME
AROUND SUNRISE THURSDAY MORNING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...

.THUNDERSTORMS...
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES RETURN TO OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS
NEXT MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
