Area forecast discussion, Aug 6, 6:20 PM CDT, 2 hours 24 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Norman OK
620 PM CDT SAT AUG 6 2016

.DISCUSSION...
Aviation discussion for the 00 UTC TAFs is below.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions are mainly expected.

Isolated to numerous SHRA/TSRA may affect parts of northern
Oklahoma 03-18 UTC. Kept VCSH mention at KPNC 11-15 UTC where
confidence of occurrence is moderate. Otherwise, chances for
SHRA/TSRA remain too low to mention.

Areas of MVFR/IFR conditions with BR may form over northern
Oklahoma and impact KPNC, KWWR, and KGAG 05-18 UTC. Did not
mention due to low confidence of occurrence.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 255 PM CDT SAT AUG 6 2016/

DISCUSSION...
We will continue Heat Advisory through early this evening and
again tomorrow. Some of south-central Oklahoma will see cooler
temps this afternoon with the scattered storms but to keep things
simple just kept it going. Considered expanding tomorrows to the
west and north but with possible cloud cover and scattered showers
possible again late tonight and tomorrow morning, will let next
shift look at need for any expansion.

Overall, hot and humid week although southwest winds across
southwest Oklahoma and western north Texas will combine with lower
humidity values and increase the wildfire danger and will need to
be monitored. Medium range models continue to point to active late
week and next weekend with heavy rain potential.
