AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED TO CHANGE 592 TO 593 NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK 820 PM CDT SUN JUL 3 2005 .UPDATE... WILL BE UPDATING ZONES SOON TO REFLECT ISSUANCE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 593. MCS CURRENTLY ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS WILL MAKE A RUN AT NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA LATER TONIGHT...MAINY AFTER 10 PM. CAN EXPECT WIND GUSTS OF 70 MPH OR GREATER AND LARGE HAIL WITH THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. && .PREV DISCUSSION... (ISSUED 243 PM CDT SUN JUL 3 2005) DISCUSSION... LITTLE DOUBT AS TO WHAT WILL BE HAPPENING TONIGHT BUT STILL QUITE A BIT OF CONCERN OVER EXACT TIMING...STRENGTH OF THE MCS AND HOW FAR EAST IT WILL PROGRESS BEFORE IT DIMINISHES. VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS OVER OKLAHOMA...KANSAS...THE TEXAS PAN HANDLE AND EASTERN COLORADO. A LARGE MCS WILL DEVELOP FROM STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER WESTERN KANSAS AS A STRONG SHORT WAVE MOVES OUT OF THE MOUNTAINS EARLY TONIGHT. MOVEMENT WILL BE TO THE EAST SOUTHEAST TOWARDS THE FORECAST AREA. WHILE THE BEST INSTABILITY AND FORECAST LLJ FEEDING INTO THE MCS WILL BE TO OUR WEST...EXPECT THE MCS TO PROPAGATE INTO THE FORECAST AREA TOWARDS MORNING WITH PLENTY OF DEEP LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY TO SUPPORT IT INTO THE DAY TIME HOURS. FORWARD SPEED IS UNCERTAIN BUT HAVE GONE GENERALLY WITH NAM SOLUTION BUT THIS COULD BE A LITTLE SLOW SINCE OUTFLOW FROM THE MCS COULD SEE FORWARD DEVELOPMENT OF THE THUNDERSTORMS ESPECIALLY TOWARDS MORNING. TOWARDS MID MORNING EXPECT TO SEE RAPID DISSIPATION OF THE MCS AS IT CONTINUES ITS EASTWARD MOVEMENT...LOSING LLJ INFLOW...AND WEAKENING JET STEAM DIVERGENCE RAINFALL COULD BE VERY HEAVY WITH HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM. HOWEVER...ONE HOUR FLASH FLOOD VALUES ARE OVER 2 INCHES...3 INCHES IN MANY AREAS. IT IS DOUBTFUL THAT THESE AMOUNTS WILL BE EXCEEDED. BIGGEST THREAT WILL BE FROM STRONG WINDS FROM BOTH THE THUNDERSTORMS AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES. HIGH TEMPERATURES MONDAY WILL BE DEPENDENT ON ANY CLEARING THAT MAY TAKE PLACE AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ON OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES DURING THE AFTERNOON. HAVE WENT COOLER THAN GUIDANCE FOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA AND NEAR GUIDANCE FOR SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 40. FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD...NOTHING GETS MUCH CLEARER. WITH RIDGING OCCURRING OVER THE ROCKIES...AND TROUGH OVER THE NORTHEAST...THE NORTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES AND KEEPS A THREAT OF MCS DEVELOPMENT WITH EACH WIGGLE IN THE FLOW. IN ADDITION...TOPICAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE NORTHWEST CARIBBEAN SEA...MOVING NORTHWEST TOWARDS THE SOUTHERN GULF IS SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ON EVEN THOUGH IT LOOKS UNLIKELY TO AFFECT THIS AREA. && .TSA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OK...NONE. AR...NONE. && FORECASTER ID= 10
