Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Norman OK
1151 PM CDT THU OCT 6 2016

.DISCUSSION...
The 06Z aviation discussion follows....

&&

.AVIATION...
TSRA very roughly along a cold front will continue a gradual
diminishing trend overnight. At 0445Z the cold front extended
approximately from KSNL-KDUC-KFDR-KCDS, and was continuing to move
quickly toward the southeast. Scattered areas of low ceilings
outside convective activity will continue for a few hours, mainly
over central OK, and possibly into south-central OK. Brisk north
winds will continue through the night and well into Friday
afternoon at most sites, then diminish fairly quickly during the
late afternoon.

CmS
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 922 PM CDT THU OCT 6 2016/

DISCUSSION...
The strong cold front extended from near Stillwater to
Clinton/Weatherford to Elk City at 9 pm. It continues to advance
quickly to the southeast, generating strong thunderstorms as it
goes. The strongest storms, however, are ahead of the front,
between Duncan, Oklahoma and the Wichita Falls area of Texas. In
addition, a small mesolow has developed south of El Reno, helping
to produce strong winds along, and just south of, the Canadian
River between Hinton and Mustang. The front will eliminate this
mesolow within an hour.

The front is expected to continue its rapid advance, taking the
convection with it. Rain/storms will gradually end from northwest
to southeast (some rain will linger well behind the front)
overnight into Friday morning. Rain will finally end in our Texas
counties sometime late tomorrow morning.

We made some minor updates to the forecast earlier this evening,
and will continue to do so as needed.

CmS

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 629 PM CDT THU OCT 6 2016/

DISCUSSION...
The 00Z aviation discussion follows....

AVIATION...
At 23Z a strong cold front was just entering the northwest corner
of Oklahoma (east of the Panhandle), approaching KGAG and KWWR.
Strong north winds will follow this front as it moves swiftly
south across Oklahoma and north Texas this evening and after
midnight tonight. In addition, scattered severe TSRA will precede
the front this evening, while a nearly solid line of TSRA is
expected near/behind the front as it advances southeast this
evening. TSRA/SHRA will gradually clear from north to south late
this evening through tomorrow morning. By Friday afternoon, all
our Oklahoma sites should be wide open VFR, and the north wind
will begin to diminish slowly. KSPS will be the last to
clear...probably Friday evening.

CmS

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 248 PM CDT THU OCT 6 2016/

DISCUSSION...
A few storms have formed this afternoon near the Kansas and Oklahoma
border along and north of an outflow boundary. Farther west, a
few weak radar returns in western Oklahoma are associated
with increasing cloud cover & along an 9-85h moisture gradient.
Several HRRR runs develop storms across southwest/west central
Oklahoma this afternoon with increasing coverage as storms move
eastward through the early evening. Additional storms are expected
to form along a cold front in northwest/north central Oklahoma by
early evening.

35-40 kts of deep layer shear and moderate to high instability should
result in several severe storms, with the best chance during the
late afternoon and early evening. The best tornado
potential appears to be across far north central Oklahoma/southern
Kansas along and near a retreating outflow boundary (back winds &
lower LCL).

Storms will continue to form along a cold front during the evening
and overnight with a risk of hail and damaging winds. Showers
and storms may linger for several hours behind the surface front
as elevated instability will be around 500 J/KG.

Showers and storms will clear southern Oklahoma and north Texas by
mid to late Friday morning.

Showers and thunderstorm chances will increase Sunday into Monday
as a trough lifts across the central Plains.
