.SHORT TERM...
(Through Tonight) Issued at 905 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021

Ongoing convective line is entering northwest AR at this time then
it trails back into eastern OK north of I-40. Instability ahead of
the line looks to drop off dramatically as you move from Benton
and Washington counties into Carroll and Madison so expect this
portion to continue to weaken. However, elevated instability
broadens across west- central AR into southeast OK which should
support continued advancement of strong to occasionally severe
cells for another hour or so ahead of the front. Low level shear
has been sufficient to maintain a few organized updrafts along
the trailing line with strong wind gusts. Steep lapse rates and
low melting levels associated with the passing trough will keep
the threat of hail going through the evening though expect sizes
to be limited by waning instability. Extended the Severe
Thunderstorm Watch into western AR to cover immediate severe
hazards but don't anticipate a need to extend in time past 10 pm.

Convection should clear eastern most counties by 08Z with
northwest winds and drier air filtering in behind the front.
Expect some clearing across eastern Oklahoma by daybreak which
combined with cold advection should yield low temperatures near
targeted forecast in the lower to mid 40s.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday through next Tuesday)
Issued at 139 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021

Cooler conditions into Thursday behind front with high temperatures
in the lower 60s. A secondary mid level vort max will rotate
around backside of stronger upper low developing over the western
Great Lakes region late Thursday night into early Friday morning.
A few light rain showers will be possible during this time across
NE OK/NW AR with a secondary surge of cooler air into the day
Friday. 1026 MB surface high pressure progged to build over the
region by Saturday morning and with light winds/clear skies,
expect the potential for a more widespread freeze. Another weak
cold front will move through on Sunday but with limited moisture
to work with, any precipitation would be light a best. As zonal
flow aloft becomes established into the early part of next week,
warmer conditions are expected with increasing southerly winds.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 505 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021
Cluster of thunderstorms will likely impact the NE OK TAF sites
between the 00-04Z time period with LIFR visibilities in the
stronger storms. Similar brief/tempo conditions are expected at
MLC and NW AR TAF sites later this evening. Behind the main
convective line, a brief period of stratiform precip with higher
based VFR ceilings will be possible before skies clear from west
to east between 06-09Z. Also a period of gusty northwest winds
behind the front, especially at E OK TAF sites, before decreasing
Thursday morning.
