Area forecast discussion, Nov 10, 2:18 PM CST, 1 hour 31 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Norman OK 218 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, UPPER AIR... .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Thursday) Issued at 206 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021 An upper-level wave and surface frontal system will move east across our forecast area this evening, bringing chances for thunderstorms, some likely severe, and a breezy, cooler night. Moderate instability and moderate vertical wind shear will support strong to severe storms, with the usual wind/hail threats. Hodographs are not overly impressive, but a few (relatively) weak tornadoes will be possible this evening with any supercells that develop, and with the QLCS that is expected to develop shortly after sunset. Once the cold front passes through, breezy north to northwest winds will bring cooler weather, and an end to rain/storm chances. CmS && .LONG TERM... (Thursday night through next Tuesday) Issued at 206 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021 Dry northwest flow (aloft) will be the rule through Monday. A wave in the flow may bring a few showers to north-central Oklahoma late Thursday night/very early Friday, although any showers that occur will be brief, and generally light. The cooler weather will include low temperatures around freezing Saturday morning. As the forecast stands right now, most of the area that is expected to reach freezing has already had a freeze this season. However, none have had a "hard" freeze, so Frost/Freeze headlines will likely be needed once the area is better-defined. The remainder of the forecast period should feature mainly clear/dry weather with a slow warming trend. CmS && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1138 AM CST Wed Nov 10 2021 Low-level moisture continues to stream north ahead of a storm system approaching from the High Plains region. This is causing low ceilings across much of Oklahoma and north Texas. There will be a chance for thunderstorms (some probably severe) late this afternoon into the late evening, mainly east of KEND-KSPS, shifting east with time. As a cold front sweeps across the region this evening, clearing will follow, along with gusty northwest to north winds. && .UPPER AIR... Issued at 206 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021 Upper air flights are planned for 21Z and 11/00Z.. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
