Area forecast discussion, Oct 10, 12:49 PM CDT, 1 hour 49 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 1249 PM CDT Thu Oct 10 2019 .AVIATION... CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG. Cold front will continue to push across the CWA this afternoon and evening with scattered convection ahead of the front and a broken line of convection along the front. Have used VCTS and tempo groups for timing with it reaching TUL/RVS at the start of the period and into FSM around 00z. Within the convection MVFR conditions will be possible. Behind the front...gusty west to northwesterly winds and continued IFR/MVFR ceilings should spread over the CWA into the evening hours. A period of convection will also remain possible behind the front...with more scattered rain showers remaining possible through the overnight/early morning hours. During the morning hours Friday...MVFR ceilings look to begin lifting back to VFR and scattering out from west to east with winds beginning to weaken. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 1100 AM CDT Thu Oct 10 2019/ ..UPDATE... DISCUSSION... At mid morning...scattered convection continued across parts of Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas within an area warm advection ahead of the strong cold front currently moving into Osage county of Northeast Oklahoma. The ongoing convection was more elevated as the surface instability axis resided along and ahead of the cold front and west of the current convection. Small hail and gusty winds will remain possible with the ongoing activity through the late morning hours. Through this afternoon...the cold front will continue to slide southeast across the CWA...reaching just south of much of the Interstate 44 corridor around 18z and into into Southeast Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas around 20-22z. Ahead of the front...scattered convection is expected to remain possible over far Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas...while additional thunderstorms are forecast to initiate along the boundary across Northeast Oklahoma and spread through the region. Instability out ahead of the front will allow for severe potentials to become possible with large hail and damaging winds being the main threats into the evening hours. A limited tornado potential will also be possible into the early evening hours with any storm that can remain more discrete ahead of the front and also along the boundary if shear vectors can remain more perpendicular to the front. The greater severe potentials look to be along and south of Interstate 44 in Eastern Oklahoma and also across Northwest Arkansas. Periods of heavy rainfall will also be possible through tonight with the convection...with widespread 1-3+ inches possible across East Central/Southeast Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas. Lesser amounts up toward one inch will be possible for much of Northeast Oklahoma. For now have held off on a possible flash flood watch...though conditions will be closely monitored. Behind the cold front...gusty west to northwesterly winds in the 20 to 30 mph range along with quickly falling temps are forecast to spread over the region through this evening. High temperatures in the 70s should be realized across much of Northeast Oklahoma over the next couple of hours...while a more diurnal temp curve should be possible for Southeast Oklahoma into West Central Arkansas. By 00z...temps look to range from the 50s along the Kansas border to near 80 degrees along the Red River. For the morning update...have adjusted hourly pop/wx/temp/dewpoint grids to account for the fast movement of the cold front then originally forecast and the mentioned above. Also have added minor tweaks to hourly wind grids based on latest trends and observations. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

AREA AT GREATEST RISK...Southeast Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas. SIGNIFICANT WINDS. RISK...Limited. AREA...Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas. ONSET...Ongoing. DISCUSSION... A strong cold front will continue to push through eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas this afternoon and evening, with widespread thunderstorms expected along the boundary and also ahead of the front. Instability interacting with the front will allow for severe weather to be possible with large hail and damaging winds being the main threat with also a limited tornado potential possible. The greater potential looks to be mainly along and south of the Interstate 44 corridor in eastern Oklahoma and also across northwest Arkansas through this evening. Ample amounts of moisture over the region will also help to create periods of very heavy rainfall. Widespread rainfall amounts in the 1 to 3 inch range will be possible though tonight across southeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas...with lesser amounts up toward one inch possible over much of northeast Oklahoma. This rainfall could create areas of possible flash flooding conditions. A flash flood watch is in effect through tonight for locations south of Interstate 44 and also for northwest Arkansas. Behind the cold front...gusty west to northwesterly winds in the 20 to 30 mph range along with falling temperatures are expected. Gusty winds will remain possible through through the night. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT... Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Likely. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday. FRIDAY...High Wind Potential. SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...No Hazards. MONDAY AND TUESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. WEDNESDAY...No Hazards. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... Much cooler weather is expected on Friday along with breezy northwesterly winds. Winds will diminish by Friday night, with lows Saturday morning falling into the 30s areawide. Some locations may even drop below freezing on Saturday morning, especially across far northeast Oklahoma and far northwest Arkansas. Thunderstorm chances return during the first part of next week in response to another low pressure system and frontal boundary forecast to push across the region. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information.
