MVFR/VFR cigs to prevail, with brief IFR cigs across SE OK during
the first 6-8 hours of the valid period. Rain thunder chances will
also be greatest across the SE OK/NW AR sites during this time.
Rain chances will diminish this evening, with a period of VFR
elements expected before cigs lower to MVFR categories around
12z.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 1020 AM CDT Mon Jun 7 2021/

DISCUSSION...
Heaviest rainfall that fell overnight across parts of northeast
Oklahoma has pushed away from that area. However, areal flooding will
be prevalent well into the afternoon as runoff continues. Focus
for heavy rainfall will shift across southeast Oklahoma and
west central Arkansas this afternoon as another vort lobe rotates
around the main upper low. Have adjusted pops some, with chance
PoPs from the northwest part of the forecast area to likely/categorical
across SE OK and WC AR. Rain chances will begin to shift east
tomorrow with warm and humid conditions expected for the middle to
latter parts of the work week.

Updated ZFP/PFM/AFM out shortly.

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.
