Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tulsa OK
449 AM CST Thu Dec 27 2018

...UPDATE...

.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.

Back edge of large area of showers and thunderstorms is on track
to clear all terminals by 12Z so will not include any mention of
precipitation or thunderstorms in any of the TAFs this morning.
VFR conditions should prevail for the first 8 to 12 hours of the
valid TAF period, with a 4 to 6 hour window for MVFR ceilings
expected once the cold front moves in later this afternoon and
evening. Winds should remain gusty at all sites for most of the
period, with gusts dropping off late tonight.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 348 AM CST Thu Dec 27 2018/

DISCUSSION...
Axis of widespread rains continues to gradually press eastward and
will reside across far E OK / western AR to start the forecast.
Rains will continue to end from west to east while the strong cold
moves into NE OK by early afternoon. Isolated light showers may
develop along the front as it continues eastward through the
afternoon. Temps will warm well above normal ahead of the frontal
passage and mark the last relatively warm day from quite some
time.

Sharply colder temperatures will prevail Friday and more so on
Saturday with increasing cloud cover. The trend continues to be
for less of an influence from the weakening wave on Saturday.
Still may see some flurries during the day but chances for
measurable precip continue to remain very low. Persistent trough
to our west yields yet another wave ejecting into the Plains late
Sunday. Precip chances focus for SE OK / western AR and points
eastward beginning Sunday night through Monday. Temps currently
appear warm enough to keep any precip all liquid.

Once this wave passes another surge of colder air spills southward
and below normal temps and dry conditions persist through at
least mid next week.
