.SHORT TERM...
(Through tonight )
Issued at 1230 PM CST Sun Mar 1 2026

Expanding area of showers and storms currently spreading into NE
OK will continue eastward through the afternoon and evening. A
continued increase in coverage is expected with primarily north of
Interstate 40 which generally aligns along and north of the
stalled frontal zone. Isolated strong to severe storms will
possible through the evening with large hail the primary concern
as most storms will be in the more elevated post frontal airmass.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Tomorrow through Sunday)
Issued at 123- PM CST Sun Mar 1 2026

Isolated to scattered showers and storms are possible Monday as
the warm front begins to lift northward. Wide ranging temps again
likely across the front zone. The warm sector expands area wide on
Tuesday with unseasonably warm temperatures and breezy south winds
expected. This pattern will allow a more meaningful increase in
low level moisture area wide ahead of the next shortwave trough
timed to influence the region Tuesday night through Wednesday.
Expectation is numerous to widespread showers and storms develop
along and ahead of the associated cold front with at least an
isolated severe weather risk especially south and east through the
day Wednesday. A more widespread footprint of beneficial rainfall
is likely.

The warm sector quickly resets and expands northward on Thursday
ahead of the next wave which will increase shower and storm
chances Thursday night through Friday night. A similar widespread
swath of precip is expected along and ahead of the associated
frontal passage with potential severe and locally heavy rainfall
concerns. The pattern is likely to remain unsettled into early
next week.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1148 AM CST Sun Mar 1 2026

Broken/overcast mid and high clouds at the start of the period
remain common into this evening before MVFR/IFR ceilings spread
into the CWA tonight through Monday morning. The greater potential
for IFR conditions are across northeast Oklahoma into far
northwest Arkansas. At the same time, scattered rain showers along
with thunderstorm chances are forecast this afternoon into the
overnight hours for the CWA as a frontal boundary sags through the
region. Within the stronger storm potential, MVFR conditions and
variable winds are possible. Majority of the precip looks to move
off to the east Monday morning and have added Prob30/Tempo groups
for timing of greater potential. Winds through the period start
out south to easterly and become north to east behind the frontal
boundary tonight.
