Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tulsa OK
627 PM CDT Thu Jul 19 2018

.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the valid period
at all area TAF sites. Have included a VCTS for a few hours this
evening at KROG for storms currently moving across southwest
Missouri.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 344 PM CDT Thu Jul 19 2018/

DISCUSSION...
Oppressive heat index values currently observed across much of
eastern OK through west central AR and conditions will only slowly
improve through the late evening hours. An additional focus for
the evening into overnight hours will be the evolution of
convection ongoing across central KS into western MO. Strong
instability remains downstream of this convection along with
seasonably strong deep layer shear on periphery of upper low
passing through the upper Midwest. This environment will support
continued S-SE development of the convection however mid level
temps also warm notably with southward extend as sampled by 18z
LMN sounding. While CAM solutions vary in details, the idea of
convection waning as it spreads into the area is a common theme
and supported by observational data. Thus will confine evening
precip chances to far NE OK through far NW AR and, should any
sustained storms make it this far south, then gusty outflow winds
will be a concern.

Temps tomorrow continue to look the hottest in some time. The
advancing cold front will enter northern portions of the area
during the afternoon and may actually serve to initially worsen
heat conditions with a period of pre-frontal heating aligned with
pooling low level moisture. There is some potential for overnight
convective debris to complicate the temperature forecast however
those sensitive to specific heat headlines should prepare for
portions of E OK / NW AR to be upgraded to heat warnings for
tomorrow. Also, late afternoon and evening storms look likely
along the frontal zone however the higher chances may focus east
of the forecast area as mid level temps remain very warm.

The front slowly pushes southward focusing the highest heat across
far SE OK on Saturday with all areas experiencing slightly cooler
and drier conditions by Sunday. The continuation of temps at or
possibly below normal may well persist through much of next week.
Longer term outlooks issued by Climate Prediction Center also
indicate higher chances for below normal temps for the extended
forecast periods.

DISCUSSION...
Excessive heat is ongoing across a large portion of eastern
Oklahoma and west central Arkansas, with dangerous heat index
values also across northwest Arkansas. Heat index values from 110
to 117 will continue across much of the area through the
afternoon, with a slow decrease in these values into mid to late
evening.

Thunderstorms ongoing in parts of Kansas and Missouri may brush
far northeast Oklahoma and far northwest Arkansas this evening,
with additional isolated to scattered thunderstorm development
possible in these same areas late this evening and into early
Friday morning. Any thunderstorms that do occur across northeast
Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas may pose a limited damaging wind
threat.
