Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 624 PM CDT Mon Jul 29 2019 .AVIATION... CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG. VFR conditions are expected through the valid period at most locations. Could see some MVFR visibilities late Tonight and early Tuesday due to fog at the western Arkansas sites and KMLC. Will also have to keep an eye on isolated thunderstorms affecting the TAF sites over the next couple of hours. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 400 PM CDT Mon Jul 29 2019/ DISCUSSION... An upper level ridge located over the desert southwest is bringing northwesterly flow aloft across eastern Oklahoma and northwestern Arkansas. These upper level winds can be seen steering the thunderstorms currently over far eastern OK and far western Arkansas generally from northwest to southeast. There is also a notable cold front set up northeast to southwest over northeastern Oklahoma slowly moving to the southeast. Through this afternoon and evening... The aforementioned cold front is currently located from Nowata county southwestern through northern Tulsa county, and through Creek county. This cold front will be the focus for additional shower and thunderstorm activity this afternoon and evening. The latest CAMs are showing at least a chance for isolated to scattered thunderstorm development this afternoon and evening. With modestly steep low level lapse rates and large DCAPE values owing to a fairly dry mid to upper level, any thunderstorm that can develop will have the potential of becoming strong to marginally severe with the main threats being damaging wind gusts from microbursts. Localized flash flooding will also be possible with some storms training over the same areas producing torrential rainfall. The POPs were increased a little for this afternoon and evening along I40 to show the potential for thunderstorms. For the afternoon update, adjustments to POPs were made to the long term beyond Thursday to increase the potential for showers and thunderstorms across eastern Oklahoma and northwestern Arkansas. Confidence is increasing in the upper level ridge located over the southwestern US to move a little further west than anticipated. This will allow for rounds of vorticity maxes and short waves to ride around the edge of the ridge bringing showers and thunderstorms to eastern Oklahoma and northwestern Arkansas. Temperatures were also lowered a touch to account for the cloudiness that will likely accompany the northerly flow bringing higher RH into the area. && .TSA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OK...None.
