Area forecast discussion, Jun 5, 2:21 PM CDT, 55 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 221 PM CDT Mon Jun 5 2023 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .SHORT TERM... (The rest of this afternoon and Tonight) Issued at 221 PM CDT Mon Jun 5 2023 Ongoing, widely scattered storms will last through the afternoon hours, mainly across southeast Oklahoma near a weak mid level trough axis sliding across north Texas. Isolated to scattered storms will also be likely within the higher terrain regions of northwest Arkansas and far eastern Oklahoma as daytime heating reaches its peak. A relative min in storm coverage is expected along and on either side of the I-44 corridor where deeper, drier air has worked into the area, limiting overall instability across much of northeast Oklahoma. Storms along the Red River will have the potential to be strong, with gusty winds the main threat, but any widespread severe potential is not expected. Storms should die off with the loss of daytime heating this evening across much of the region, though some could linger across far southeast Oklahoma, near the mid level vort max, into the late evening at least. Overnight lows will continue to be similar to previous nights, with lows mostly in the 60s with a few upper 50s sprinkled in. Bowlan && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Monday) Issued at 221 PM CDT Mon Jun 5 2023 Similar conditions are expected for Tuesday, with storm chances best across northwest Arkansas into southeast Oklahoma, though some deeper Gulf moisture should spread back in allowing for more widely scattered coverage across the whole CWA during the afternoon hours. Deep layer ridging will build in over most of the area on Wednesday, leading to the lowest storm chances of the week. A few isolated storms will still be possible, with better chances across northwest Arkansas on the periphery of the blocking ridge and where terrain could influence some diurnal convection during the afternoon. Guidance continues to indicate the arrival of a back door front sneaking into the region during the day Thursday along the backside of the broad mid level trough situated over the Great Lakes Region. It remains to be seen how far this front will advance into Oklahoma, as latest trends have been for it to become stalled in the terrain of the Ozarks in Southwest Missouri and Northwest Arkansas. More storm coverage can be expected Thursday afternoon in the vicinity of the boundary. Mid level flow still remains fairly weak, so any organized severe potential is still low, but any clustering of storms and upscale growth could lead to some scattered strong to severe wind gusts or some small hail with the strongest storms. Persistent scattered daily storm chances return for Friday and Saturday with highs hovering near 90 degrees through the week. Guidance continues to indicate a change in the pattern is possible by the weekend. Better storm chances, and a stronger frontal boundary could approach the area by Sunday as the blocking ridge retrogrades to the west and mid level flow strengthens over the Southern Plains. Severe weather chances could also increase during this time with the more active southern stream. Some slightly cooler temperatures could slide in behind the front early next week. Bowlan && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1235 PM CDT Mon Jun 5 2023 VFR conditions will prevail with scattered afternoon cu. Isolated pop-up showers and storms not expected to be great enough in coverage to include in TAFs. Future amendments could be made if a terminal stands a better chance of being impacted later. The valley site of KFYV and KROG near Beaver Lake have had fog in previous nights. Used TEMPO groups to convey potential, hitting KFYV hardest with IFR conditions possible.
