Area forecast discussion, Sep 24, 6:50 PM CDT, 1 hour 24 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 650 PM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (Tonight) Issued at 219 PM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop late this afternoon/early evening across north-central Oklahoma in the vicinity of weak surface boundary and associated low pressure system. This activity is forecast to spread into eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas through the evening hours as a mid-level shortwave currently over southwest Kansas swoops through the area. There is the potential that a few of the storms could be strong to severe this evening across portions of eastern Oklahoma, mainly to the south of Highway 412 and west of Highway 75. Large hail to the size of golf balls is the main concern. Overall, the shower and storm activity is expected to move out of the area late tonight. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday through Tuesday) Issued at 219 PM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 Wednesday into Thursday are expected to remain mostly dry as a cutoff upper level takes shape over the Lower Mississippi Valley. Shower and storm chances increase Thursday night into Friday as moisture associated with Helene is incorporated into the cutoff low as it wobbles east of the area. The highest probabilities of shower/storms are forecast across western Arkansas as are the highest rainfall amounts. The upper level low will finally begin to move off to the northeast over the weekend with dry weather forecast for much of the area. Temperatures look to be near normal for this time of year during this time-frame. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 646 PM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue to spread south and east this evening across E OK and NW AR with additional development possible over the next several hours. This may lead to at least brief ceiling & vsby reductions, with highest potential for flight impacts expected for MLC. Most precip should move south of TAF sites by 07z with clearing conditions behind this activity. This may allow for development of fog late tonight/ tomorrow morning (low to medium chance). At this time, MLC and FSM appear to be most favored for vsby reductions and have included TEMPO groups here. Other sites in E OK & NW AR may also experience at least brief vsby reductions, but confidence was not high enough to include mention with this forecast issuance. Aside from any lingering fog tomorrow morning, VFR conditions are expected for the remainder of the period. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM. RISK...Limited. AREA...Eastern Oklahoma...West of Highway 75. ONSET...Late Afternoon. HEAVY RAIN. RISK...Limited. AREA...Eastern Oklahoma. ONSET...Late Afternoon. DISCUSSION... Scattered showers and thunderstorm will develop by late afternoon or early evening across parts of eastern Oklahoma as a disturbance drops southeast across the Plains. Sufficient instability and shear in place could allow for a few of the initial thunderstorms to become strong to severe, especially across central and into east central Oklahoma this evening. Main threats will be hail up to half- dollar size and damaging wind gusts. Any severe threat should wane into the overnight hours and storms shift southeastward. Locally heavy rainfall will also be a concern with the stronger storms. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT... Local Spotter Activation May Be Needed. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday. WEDNESDAY...No Hazards. THURSDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. FRIDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...Heavy Rain Potential. SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. MONDAY...No Hazards. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... Showers and a few thunderstorms will occur late Thursday through Friday in association with an upper level storm system just to our east. The greatest thunderstorm potential will be across far eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas where locally heavy rainfall will also be possible. Thunderstorm chances also continue into the weekend as the upper low remains nearby before upper ridging builds back in early next week with a return to more settled conditions. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information.
