Severe Thunderstorm Warning 227, NWS Norman, OK

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Norman OK
710 PM CDT Sat May 19 2018

.AVIATION...
Widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected
to become more numerous this evening and overnight. The
stronger storms will be capable of lowering visibility
to less than 1 mile and produce wind gusts in excess of
45-50 knots. Perhaps the more significant storms will
impact the terminal sites around LAW and SPS.
By 12Z most of the showers and storms should be east and
south of most of the terminal sites.  A cold front across
northwestern Oklahoma, will move slowly south tonight before
stalling on Sunday. During the day Sunday, mainly VFR conditions
are expected.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 327 PM CDT Sat May 19 2018/

DISCUSSION...

Strong to severe thunderstorms have formed over the past
hour, mainly across north central and southwest Oklahoma. An
outflow boundary that lifted northward from central Oklahoma
earlier this morning, has been augmented by afternoon convection.

Overall, additional strong to severe storms will continue to
form generally near and ahead of a cold front that extends from
the Texas Panhandle into northwestern Oklahoma. Several HRRR runs,
predict storms will eventually evolve into a thunderstorm complex
or two. One may develop from western north Texas and southwest
Oklahoma and move into central/north central Oklahoma, while
another may evolve from the Texas Panhandle and impact
southwestern Oklahoma and north Texas. If this occurs, the over
hazard will likely be strong damaging winds with some hail. In the
meantime, large hail and strong outflow winds are expected.
Depending on storm evolution tonight through Sunday morning,
little thunderstorm development may occur Sunday afternoon and
evening.

Late Sunday into Monday, a trough/low is expected to move across
southern parts of the West Coast. Weak height rises are expected
over the southern plains with rather weak southwest flow,
especially the eastern half of Oklahoma. Although showers and
thunderstorms will be possible they will be rather slow moving and
mainly not severe.

As the trough lift northeast Tuesday into Wednesday, additional height
rises will occur and the overall flow across Oklahoma and north
Texas will be very weak for late May. Shower and thunderstorm
chances will be rather low.
