Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tulsa OK
635 PM CDT Thu Jul 2 2020

.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
Showers and thunderstorms may affect the northwest Arkansas sites
for the first hour or so of the forecast period. VFR conditions
will then prevail for the most part, with isolated showers and
storms again possible just about anywhere during the day Friday.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 219 PM CDT Thu Jul 2 2020/

DISCUSSION...
Cluster of strong to marginally severe thunderstorms continue to
push south this afternoon across portions of northeast Oklahoma
into higher instability axis. Damaging winds and very heavy
rainfall are the main threats with this activity.

Behind outflow boundary, temperatures have cooled off significantly
and have therefore dropped heat headlines. Heat indices ahead of
boundary remain in the 107 to 110 range. Additional scattered
thunderstorms will be possible across far northeast Oklahoma and
northwest Arkansas as cap continues to weaken. In the short term,
generally followed latest HRRR guidance with convective line
pushing into southeast Oklahoma this afternoon. Only limited
chances for additional thunderstorm development is expected
across northeast Oklahoma this evening given atmosphere has
stabilized.

Storms that are forecast across western Kansas tonight could form
MCV, rotating around periphery of upper ridge on Friday. This
feature, coupled with diurnal heating will likely allow scattered
showers/thunderstorms to develop across southeast Oklahoma and
west-central Arkansas Friday afternoon. Storm chances will likely
continue on Saturday, primarily across aforementioned area as a
moist/unstable air-mass remains in place.

At least low precipitation chances will persist through the early
to middle part of next week as large upper high begins to build
over the four corners region. Temperatures will remain near normal
with a slow warming trend into late week. Again stayed close to
NBM guidance through the extended periods.
