.AVIATION...
CONCERNING TAF SITES KTUL/KRVS/KBVO/KMLC/KXNA/KFYV/KFSM/KROG.
Several clusters of strong thunderstorms will continue this
morning with IFR/MVFR conditions in the stronger storms. Much of
this activity should begin to weaken this afternoon as atmosphere
stabilizes. Could see some patchy fog or low clouds redevelop
tonight.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 340 AM CDT Mon Jun 7 2021/

DISCUSSION...
Showers and thunderstorms continue to develop across parts of
northeast OK on the southwestern flank of broad upper level low,
which was centered near OK/KS/MO borders. Expect continued
development within this corridor during the morning with a low-end
threat of hail, but a bigger concern for locally excessive
rainfall amounts due to slow movement of storms and anomalously
high precip H2O. Isolated 2-3" per hour rates will likely cause
some degree of flash flood threat, however given the uncertain
evolution of storms over the next several hours will not issue a
watch at this time and handle with short-fused products as needed.
The overall trend in short-range guidance is for this activity to
weaken later this morning with storms becoming focused farther
south and east through the afternoon, though model agreement
leaves some to be desired.

The upper low will continue to gradually lift northeast with
lingering trough axis remaining over the forecast area Tuesday.
Later tonight there is a decent signal for a strengthening low
level jet to set up over the southern plains with increasing
moisture transport. It is possible that heavy rain could impact
the same general areas that see heavy rain today, however
confidence lacks to support a watch issuance at this time.

The trend will be for lessening shower and thunderstorm chances
by mod to late week with upper ridge amplifying over the Southern
Plains, providing us with our first taste of summer weather with
temperatures warming a bit above normal and humidity remaining
high. Still appears a frontal boundary will push south into the
area by the weekend underneath the strengthening ridge and as such
wold expect any thunderstorm chances with the front to remain
fairly limited.

DISCUSSION...
Areas of showers and thunderstorms will continue through much of
today, with the greatest coverage expected to shift more toward
the east later in the day. Slow moving storms with high rainfall
rates will lead to localized rainfall amounts of 3 to 5 inches,
which will cause isolated flash flooding. Stronger cells may also
briefly produce marginally severe hail, but organized severe
weather is not expected.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Local Spotter Activation May Be Needed.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.
TUESDAY through SUNDAY...Thunderstorm Potential.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Thunderstorm chances will continue through the first part of next
week before it looks to dry out some by Thursday and Friday. Areas
of heavy rainfall will be possible with slow moving storms and
high rainfall rates through Tuesday. A few of the storms could be
strong with some gusty winds and possibly some small hail, but
the threat of any organized severe weather will remain low.
