AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK 308 PM CDT TUE JUL 26 2005 .DISCUSSION... UNSEASONABLY STRONG COLD FRONT NOW ENTERING FAR WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA...WITH WIDESPREAD LIGHT PRECIP AND EMBEDDED THUNDER OCCURRING ON THE COOL SIDE OF THE BOUNDARY. BULK OF SYNOPTIC SCALE DYNAMICS WILL REMAIN TO OUR NORTH...HOWEVER STILL EXPECTING GOOD COVERAGE OF PRECIP ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT AS THE FRONT SWEEPS EASTWARD. ANY HEAVY RAINFALL CONCERNS WILL BE HIGHLY ISOLATED AS STRENGTH OF DEEP CONVECTION WILL BE LIMITED BY MEAGER LAPSE RATES AND RESULTANT LACK OF INSTABILITY...WITH THIS SAME REASONING LIMITING THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER. CURRENT READINGS ACROSS KANSAS SUPPORT LOWS WELL INTO THE 60S MOST LOCATIONS. BULK OF PRECIP WILL END DURING THE MORNING HOURS WEDNESDAY AS SYNOPTIC SCALE SUBSIDENCE AND DRIER LOW LEVEL AIR MOVE INTO THE AREA. EXPECTING WIDESPREAD CLOUD COVER TO LINGER...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA...FOR MOST OF THE DAY LEAVING A STRUGGLE FOR TEMPS TO BREAK THE 80 DEGREE MARK. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT...AND WITH CLEARING SKIES...FORECAST LOWS WILL APPROACH OR BREAK RECORD VALUES AT MANY LOCATIONS. ABNORMALLY COLD START TO THURSDAY AND FORECAST TEMPERATURE PROFILES WILL ALLOW FOR A REFRESHING JULY DAY WITH HIGH TEMPS 5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL ALONG WITH LIGHT WINDS. SURFACE RIDGE AXIS REMAINS IN PLACE...AND CONTINUED LACK OF CLOUD COVER WILL ALLOW FOR ANOTHER UNSEASONABLY COLD NIGHT THURSDAY NIGHT. MODERATING TEMPS BEGIN FRIDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK THOUGH SURFACE RIDGING IS EXPECTED TO BE RATHER STUBBORN. RESULTANT LACK OF TROPICAL MOISTURE RETURN SHOULD ALLOW OVERNIGHT LOWS TO REMAIN AT OR BELOW NORMAL...WHILE HIGH TEMPS WILL PUSH TO MORE NORMAL READINGS.
