Area Forecast Discussion

943 PM CST Mon Mar 6 2017

.DISCUSSION...
Tornado watch #64 continues through 3 am...and have recently added
Pittsburg and Latimer counties to the watch. Cold front has
entered northeast Oklahoma this evening...with a line of storms
currently situated along the boundary that extended southwest from
northwest Craig county through northwest Creek county...moving
east. Well ahead of the front...other discrete storms were across
northwest Arkansas...and carried a slightly higher tornadic
potential.

Front will continue to move east overnight. Have tailored pops
accordingly...with most precip to be east of the area after
09-10z. For the most part have left temperatures as they
are...with most tweaks coming to pops and winds based off of
recent trends.

Updated ZFP/AFM/PFM out shortly.
