Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tulsa OK
523 PM CST Fri Nov 30 2018

.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
Main concern for this TAF issuance will be the strong to severe
thunderstorms expected to move through the area This evening.
MVFR to VFR conditions are expected behind the line of thunderstorms.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 307 PM CST Fri Nov 30 2018/

DISCUSSION...

The main forecast concern will be severe weather potential
tonight. Fire weather will be a concern on Saturday. Finally, in
about a week, winter weather potential will increase as one would
typically expect in December.

A busy evening is in store across E OK and W AR. A potent
shortwave trough, located over the central and southern Rockies
attm, is moving rapidly toward the Plains as I type. The system,
on the nose of a potent upper jet that extends clear back into the
eastern Pacific, will eject rapidly northeast tonight into
Saturday, while mid level cyclogenesis eventually occurs over the
central Plains. The intense dynamics with this system will be
meeting up with returning Gulf moisture, the leading edge of which
is denoted by the retreating warm front near I-40 attm, to set
the stage for a potentially dangerous evening across the region.

The hi-res guidance has been consistent over several hours
denoting two main areas of development this evening. Storms are
expected to develop closer to 00Z across central Oklahoma, and
especially north central Oklahoma, as the intense positive
vorticity advection occurs with the main vort. These storms,
possibly evolving quickly into a QLCS with time, will likely cut
across a portion of northeast Oklahoma, especially from the Tulsa
area and to the north and west, between roughly 01Z and 04Z, with
all hazards possible. The second main area of development will
likely get going around 02Z, fairly close to the highway 69
corridor in eastern OK, as the mid level speed max hits the
western edge of the deeper moisture. A broken band of cellular,
and more than likely rotating, convection will progress rapidly
northeast into western AR thru 06Z or 07Z.

The intensifying shear, at both the low levels and aloft, combined
with moderate instability lifting into the region with the warm
front, suggest that the potential for strong tornadoes exists,
along with very large hail. People across eastern Oklahoma and
northwest Arkansas should be weather aware this evening.

Gusty west to southwest winds on Saturday, along with dry and mild
conditions over the region in the wake of tonight's system, will
elevate fire weather potential, especially since fuels have been
cured from the recent cold weather.

While there are still differences in the details, which is
expected in the day 6-7 time frame, the GFS and ECMWF both
suggest increasing chances for precipitation across the region
late next week in advance of a decent southern stream wave. The
EC, however, is also more aggressive with the southward push of
cold air down the Plains as it has a much more pronounced
northern stream wave. This is that dreaded one-two punch that is
often seen during big winter storms. While I'm not going to go
full boar on this solution, it is prudent to at least introduce
the potential for winter weather by day 7 (next Friday).

...SEVERE WEATHER EXPECTED THROUGH THIS EVENING...

This Outlook is for Northwest and West Central Arkansas as well as
much of Eastern Oklahoma.

.DAY ONE...Tonight.
TORNADO.
	RISK...Elevated.
	AREA...Primarily along and south of Interstate 44, and especially
           southeast Oklahoma into west central Arkansas.
	ONSET...After 6 PM.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM.
	RISK...Critical.
	AREA...All eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas.
	ONSET...After 6 PM.

	AREA AT GREATEST RISK...Southeast Oklahoma through northwest Arkansas.

HEAVY RAIN.
	RISK...Limited.
	AREA...Far eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas.
	ONSET...Evening through early Saturday morning.

DISCUSSION...
Thunderstorms are developing over southeastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas
and storms will continue to increase in coverage through the evening hours.
Storms will end from west to east, and clear western Arkansas during the
early morning hours on Saturday. Conditions continue to appear favorable
for severe weather across much of eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas.

Instability continues to increase across the region this afternoon
and will trend upward through the evening hours.  Winds aloft will also
become more favorable for severe storms, and very strong low level winds
are forecast to develop across southeast Oklahoma and western Arkansas
by early evening.  As storms develop and move into the more favorable
conditions, tornadic potential will increase.  Current forecasts do
suggest the potential for a strong tornado across southeast Oklahoma
through west central Arkansas during the evening hours. Additionally,
large hail and locally damaging straight line winds will be possible,
especially with any discrete storm cells.  Severe weather watches and
warnings should be anticipated.  Know your severe weather safety procedures.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Expected.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
SATURDAY...High Wind Potential.
SUNDAY through THURSDAY...No Hazards.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Mild temperatures and gusty west to southwest winds will raise
fire weather concerns Saturday. Some light rain or snow will also
be possible in some places late Sunday night, but no significant
wintry precipitation is expected.
