CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
MVFR cigs should overspread the region this morning and will
persist at least thru the morning across E OK and for much of the
day over in NW AR. Showers and storms will exit the region this
morning and are not expected to affect any of the TAF sites until
aft 00Z this evening. MVFR conditions are expected again tonight,
with increasing potential for storms aft 06Z for the E OK sites.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 420 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2017/
DISCUSSION...
Main message for this forecast is the potential for a significant
flood/flash flood event that will likely impact much of eastern
OK and western AR Saturday and Saturday night, though still
uncertainty regarding the location of axis of heaviest rainfall.
Overall, forecast will change very little, aside from adding
Choctaw Co to the flood watch. Severe weather threat, while
present both tonight and Saturday, appears at this time to be the
lesser of the two concerns.
At present, zone of isentropic lift resulting in showers and a
few thunderstorms overnight continues to shift north and has
become focused near KS/OK border. Some may linger into the
morning but mostly expecting dry conditions today as capping
inversion likely to hold most of the day as warm front lifts north
into parts of eastern OK. While a few storms may develop near dry
line and front intersection well to our west, more likely
scenario will see upscale grown of convection this evening as low
level jet strengthens in response to approaching upper trough,
especially to the north of the frontal boundary. NAM appears to be
overly aggressive with northward surge of the front and suspect
that anticipated precip north of the boundary tonight will help
reinforce it farther south, more in the vicinity of KMLC-KFYV, but
the location of this boundary key to pinpointing heaviest rain
axis and highest severe potential.
Digging low will provide a prolonged period of near meridional
mid level flow with strong synoptic forcing continuing through
Saturday night, with a gradual shift to the east. Precipitable
water values are expected to be above 90th percentile, supporting
rainfall amounts of 4 to 6 inches in much of the area southeast of
I-44, and local 8-10 inch totals not beyond the realm of
possibility. As for severe weather, a good deal of the storms may
be elevated, and storm that can become rooted in the boundary
layer could pose some risk of significant severe weather given
the environment, especially any storm that can interact with the
warm front. Sfc based development is far from certain however.
Low will gradually move east with most of the precip ending by
Sunday with breezy and much cooler conditions. Monday should be a
pleasant afternoon, with another faster moving system bringing a
chance of showers and thunderstorm Tuesday night and Wednesday.
Beyond that we could see several days of dry weather with
seasonably warm temperatures.

...SIGNIFICANT FLOODING AND SEVERE RISK THRU THE WEEKEND...
This Outlook is for Northwest and West Central Arkansas as well as
much of Eastern Oklahoma.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
TORNADO.
RISK...Limited.
AREA...Along and south of I-44.
ONSET...Late this afternoon...but most likely this evening.
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM.
RISK...Significant.
AREA...Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas.
ONSET...Late this afternoon or early this evening.
AREA AT GREATEST RISK...In a zone between I-44 and a McAlester to
Fort Smith line.
FLASH FLOOD.
RISK...Elevated.
AREA...Northeast Oklahoma.
ONSET...After 9 PM.
HEAVY RAIN.
RISK...Elevated.
AREA...Northeast Oklahoma.
ONSET...After 9 PM.
DISCUSSION...
An elevated or enhanced risk of severe storms is forecast tonight
across eastern Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas. Very large hail
to baseball size, damaging winds to 70 mph, and an isolated
tornado are possible.
The bulk of the daytime hours should remain quiet. Storms are
expected to fire by late in the day west of the region near a
dryline and over portions of the region going into the evening to
the north of a warm front. The storms to our west will gradually
grow upscale into lines or clusters which will sweep east during
the overnight. At that time, the main severe threat will
transition from large hail to damaging winds. Storms may gradually
weaken toward daybreak.
An elevated flash flood risk is forecast across northeast Oklahoma
tonight. This region could be affected by multiple rounds of
storms, with a round possible thru the evening as storms form
north of the warm front, and again during the overnight as storms
out west move into the region. Locally heavy rainfall in excess of
2 inches may lead to some flash flooding.
SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Expected.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
SATURDAY...Severe Thunderstorm Potential...Heavy Rain Potential.
SUNDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...High Wind Potential.
MONDAY...High Wind Potential.
TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential.
THURSDAY...No Hazards.
EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Multiple rounds of thunderstorms are forecast over the region
Saturday and Saturday night as a powerful upper level storm system
develops to our west and interacts with a frontal boundary draped
over the region. Storm total rainfall in the 4 to 7 inch range is
expected, with locally heavier amounts, across much of northeast and
east central Oklahoma into Northwest Arkansas thru Sunday. This
heavy rainfall could lead to life-threatening flash flooding and
significant flooding of area rivers and lakes. Locations downstream
from dams could see significant flooding as water is released from
the flooded lakes.
An enhanced or elevated severe weather risk is forecast again
Saturday afternoon and evening across east central and southeast
Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. The quasi-stationary frontal
boundary and approaching upper system will continue to be the
focus for more storm development during the afternoon and evening
hours. The severe weather threat will come to an end from west to
east as a cold front sweeps across the region late Saturday night
into Sunday morning.
Another storm system will bring the potential for more storms by
the middle of next week. This system is expected to push through
too quickly to bring significant rainfall. An organized severe
weather event is not expected either.
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
Continue to follow the latest updates regarding the expected
hazardous weather that will affect much of the area this weekend.
