Area forecast discussion, Jun 2, 3:40 PM CDT, 2 hours 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 340 PM CDT Sun Jun 2 2019 .DISCUSSION... Weak sfc boundary currently just north of Interstate 40 corridor through E OK w/ agitated Cu field over north central OK and also NW AR. Expected at least isolated storms from late afternoon through early evening generally in this corridor w/ decreasing coverage after sunset. Isolated svr potential does exist with any stronger updrafts. Generally consensus on an uptick in convective coverage tomorrow compared to previous days as convection developing over the high plains is maintained with its eastward progression. Confidence is not overly high in this scenario thus a continued broad chance of precip tomorrow. Tuesday continues to appear as a lesser precip chance day. Upper low begins to influence the region by Wednesday as deep tropical moisture is drawn northward in its advance. Higher precip chances continue to appear for the Wed-Thurs timeframe and locally heavy rainfall is possible. Upper low slowly moves eastward by late week with drier weather returning. Temps through early week are likely to continue above normal with slightly cooler high temps by mid week with increasing cloud cover and precip. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM. RISK...Limited. AREA...Mainly northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. ONSET...Ongoing. DISCUSSION... Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop late this afternoon and into this evening in the vicinity of a weak frontal boundary that is located near Highway 412. A few of these storms could become marginally severe with large hail and damaging winds the concern. Locally heavy rainfall is also possible. This activity is expected to diminish after sunset.

WEDNESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...Heavy Rain Potential. THURSDAY...Severe Thunderstorm Potential...Heavy Rain Potential. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... Thunderstorm chances will continue for much of the week as a series of upper level disturbances traverse the region in southwest flow aloft. A stronger upper wave will begin to move out of the desert southwest and into the southern plains Wednesday into Thursday. The threat for heavy rainfall will increase substantially toward the middle to latter part of next week, leading to a more elevated threat of flash flooding as well as severe weather.
