Area Forecast Discussion

319 PM CDT Fri Jun 25 2021

...New LONG TERM...

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 201 PM CDT Fri Jun 25 2021

Storms are expected to develop from KS southwest into the TX
panhandle, clipping far NW parts of the fa, late this
afternoon/early evening. Showers/storms will then continue to
develop, move into, and across parts of the area tonight into
Saturday morning, with the highest chances generally north of I-40.
The development will occur near a front and dryline/sfc trough. The
cool front or effective front is forecast to slowly move south into
and across parts of the area tonight into tomorrow. Another round of
showers/storms is then expected to begin Saturday afternoon. The
position(s) of the previously mentioned boundaries will have an
impact on where the greatest storm development will begin tomorrow
afternoon. Enough instability and shear is expected to be in place
that some of the storms later this afternoon and evening could
become strong to severe with hail and damaging winds possible. Some
strong to severe storms will also be possible Saturday afternoon
with hail and strong winds the main concerns, although this could be
impacted by what occurs tonight into Saturday morning. The severe
potential being said, heavy rain/flooding will become an increasing
concern as the weekend progresses and could be an even bigger
concern than the severe potential for at least parts of the fa. A
Flood Watch is in effect starting early this evening and continues
into Saturday.

With the rain and clouds expected across the area, the trend of
below average temperatures for late June will begin Saturday with
highs in the 80s to low 90s.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday night through next Thursday)
Issued at 316 PM CDT Fri Jun 25 2021

All medium range models project the blocking high across the western
one third of the U.S. persisting through next week, which should
maintain the negatively tilted trough across the central one third
of the U.S.  This persisting upper air pattern will maintain our wet
trend with cooler than seasonably average every day through Friday.
As the surface based and elevated instability and deep layer shear
weakens Saturday evening across the Southern High Plains, expecting
the severe hazards to gradually decrease with any ongoing convection
moving across our area.  However, could still see some strong storms
during the overnight hours, but heavy rainfall could maintain a
flooding to flash flooding hazard as well as river flooding
potential.  Within an area of 2-plus inches of Preciptable Water
Saturday night and three day storm total accumulations of 4-5
inches, the highest potential right now for flooding would be across
central and southwestern Oklahoma.  Of course this area and storm
total amounts may change in the upcoming short term.  With the upper
trough axis to our west, mid-level vorticity forcing within our
southwesterly flow aloft will maintain chances for storms through
the day Sunday, with the highest POPs generally south and east of
the I-44 corridor. Weak elevated instability should keep any of the
high based storms below severe. However, the stalled out surface
boundary will remain stretched somewhere across our area with
moderate surface based instability that could produce some lower
based stronger convective storms near the boundary, although weak
capping and/or a lack of strong afternoon heating could inhibit
this. Another vort max coming up from our southwest will bring
another round of showers and weak thunderstorms.

As previously mentioned, our wet trend with periods of rain and
storms will continue through next week as our upper troughing and
ample gulf moisture transport persists, with the highest chances
across the southern half of Oklahoma and western north Texas.
However, limited instability and lower QPFs should keep any new
severe and flooding risks low. However, any ongoing flooding
especially with rivers may persist.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1048 PM CDT Thu Jun 24 2021

A shower or two may impact WWR around 6-7Z otherwise, VFR
conditions are expected at all TAF sites through at least 21Z
Friday. Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop across
northwest Oklahoma between 22-23Z and could bring MVFR conditions,
perhaps IFR conditions, to WWR. Thunderstorms may also bring at
least MVFR conditions to CSM and PNC mainly after 2-3Z Saturday.
