PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 354 PM CDT TUE MAR 22 2016/

DISCUSSION...
VERY STRONG WINDS...DRY AIR...AND WARM TEMPERATURES WILL
INCREASE THE RISK OF WILDFIRES THROUGH WEDNESDAY.  FOR TONIGHT...
SURFACE WINDS MAY DECREASE FOR A PERIOD...BUT OVERALL THE WIND
WILL REMAIN RATHER STRONG AND GUSTY.  GFS BUFR SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
THE POTENTIAL FOR WIND GUSTS OVER 40 MPH...ESPECIALLY ALONG AND
EAST OF HWY 81.

NEAR SURFACE MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE SLOWLY TONIGHT
WHICH SHOULD RESULT IN LOW CLOUDS ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL AND
SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA OVERNIGHT. BY MID/LATE WEDNESDAY
MORNING...MUCH DRIER AIR WILL BEGIN TO MIX EASTWARD FROM WEST
TEXAS...AS SURFACE LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS CENTRAL/NORTHERN
KANSAS. DEEP MIXING BEHIND THE DRYLINE MAY RESULT IN WIND GUSTS
NEAR 50 MPH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON (FROM WEST CENTRAL OKLAHOMA INTO
CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA).

SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE IN FAR
SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT. BETTER
CHANCES WILL BE EAST AND SOUTH OF THE AREA WHERE BETTER MOISTURE
WILL BE IN PLACE.

BY LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...A COLD FRONT WILL ENTER FAR
NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA. WIND GUSTS OF 45 TO PERHAPS 50 MPH MAY
DEVELOP BEHIND THE FRONT...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTHERN AND WESTERN
OKLAHOMA.

SURFACE WINDS WILL REMAIN STRONG ENOUGH THAT FREEZING TEMPERATURES
BY EARLY THURSDAY MORNING ARE NOT LIKELY. BY THURSDAY NIGHT/EARLY
FRIDAY...TEMPERATURES MAY APPROACH FREEZING ACROSS SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA AS WINDS SHOULD BE RATHER LIGHT.

RAIN AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL INCREASE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY
AS A TROUGH APPROACHES THE SOUTHERN PLAINS FROM THE WEST. DRY
WEATHER IS EXPECTED SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY.
