.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE AGAIN THROUGH THE DAY TODAY
ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS AS THE REMNANTS OF
TROPICAL SYSTEM BILL MOVES ACROSS THE REGION. FOR THIS EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT...GREATER PRECIP CHANCES WILL BE OVER NORTHWEST ARKANSAS
AND HAVE BACKED OFF ON PRECIP FOR EASTERN OKLAHOMA. ALSO OVER THE
REGION...GUSTY NORTH TO EAST WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR NORTHEAST
OKLAHOMA INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS WITH GUSTY SOUTHEAST TO WEST
WINDS FOR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS. VARYING
CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES BETWEEN IFR TO VFR WILL BE COMMON
THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH THE LOWER CATEGORIES WITHIN ANY PRECIP.
LATE IN THE PERIOD...POSSIBLE LIFR/IFR CEILINGS TRY TO DEVELOP
OVER THE REGION.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 322 AM CDT THU JUN 18 2015/

DISCUSSION...
REMAINS OF TROPICAL SYSTEM "BILL"...WHICH HAD SHOWN A SLOW EASTWARD
JOG EARLIER TONIGHT...IS CURRENTLY CENTERED ACROSS JOHNSTON COUNTY
IN SOUTHERN OK. LATEST RADAR LOOP SUGGESTS THAT THE SYSTEM IS
BEGINNING TO LIFT SLOWLY NORTHEAST...IN RESPONSE TO PRESSURE FALL
BULLSEYE ANALYZED WEST OF MLC. THIS SYSTEM HAS ALREADY PRODUCED
TREMENDOUS RAINFALL TO THE WEST/NORTHWEST OF ITS TRACK...WITH 5 TO
ALMOST 11 INCHES IN SOUTH-CENTRAL OK OVER THE PAST 12-18 HOURS.

BASED ON LATEST HIGH RES MODELS...WILL BRING THE CIRCULATION CENTER
TO NORTH OF MLC TOWARD 18Z...AND EVENTUALLY INTO NW AR 00-06Z.
EXPECT THE HEAVIEST RAINS TO FALL GENERALLY BETWEEN THE I-44
CORRIDOR AND THE TRACK OF "BILL"...WITH AN ADDITIONAL 3 TO 6 INCHES
(AND LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS) OF RAIN POSSIBLE BEFORE PRECIPITATION
BEGINS TO TAPER OFF LATER THURSDAY NIGHT. LESSER AMOUNTS ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS SOUTHEAST OK/WEST-CENTRAL ARKANSAS...ALTHOUGH STILL
SHOULD SEE PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN AS FEEDER BANDS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP
AHEAD OF THE CIRCULATION. THERE WILL ALSO BE A LIMITED SEVERE
WEATHER THREAT...INCLUDING BRIEF TORNADOES...AS SHEAR PROFILES ARE
SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELL STRUCTURES.

THE FLASH FLOODING THREAT WILL INCREASE DURING THE MORNING HOURS
ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHEAST/EAST-CENTRAL OK AND EXPAND INTO NORTHWEST
AR DURING THE AFTERNOON...AND RESIDENTS ACROSS THE REGION ARE URGED
TO REMAIN WEATHER AWARE.

AN ELONGATED WEST-EAST UPPER RIDGE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
HALF OF THE COUNTRY OVER THE WEEKEND AND THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT
WEEK. EXPECT AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF HOT AND HUMID WEATHER...BUT HAVE
KEPT RAINFALL OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR NOW.
