AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK 318 PM CDT SUN SEP 17 2006 .DISCUSSION... MODELS IN AGREEMENT THAT THE UPPER TROUGH RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RAIN WILL SWING THROUGH THE AREA LATER TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW. THE BULK OF THE SIGNIFICANT RAIN LOOKS TO BE OVER EXCEPT PERHAPS IN ARKANSAS AND ADJACENT PARTS OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA. HAVE IN GENERAL UNDERCUT MOS POPS FOR TONIGHT. THE CLOUDS SHOULD BEGIN TO CLEAR FROM THE NORTHWEST LATER TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW MORNING. MONDAY AND TUESDAY LOOK LIKE PLEASANT DAYS WITH WARM AFTERNOONS AND COOL MORNINGS. THE WRF AND GFS AGREE THE NEXT TROUGH WILL BE JUST EAST OF THE NORTHERN ROCKIES LATE WEDNESDAY CAUSING LOW PRESSURE TO DEVELOP IN THE LEE OF THE ROCKIES WEDNESDAY BRINGING INCREASING SOUTH WINDS AND WARMER TEMPERATURES. THE 12Z GFS CLOSES OFF OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY BRINGING A SHOT AT RAIN LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY MORNING. MADE ADJUSTMENTS TO WHAT I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT EARLIER IN THE MORNING AS THE 12Z GFS WAS BY FAR QUICKER AND MORE BULLISH THAN THE 06Z VERSION. A WAVE WILL PIVOT DOWN THE BACKSIDE OF THE UPPER LOW AND BRING ANOTHER CHANCE OF RAIN FROM LATE THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY EVENING. ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY CLOUDS WILL HINDER THE WARMUP...THUS HAVE COOLER READINGS THAN EARLIER THOUGHT. BOTH THE GFS AND THE 00Z ECMWF BUILD HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE AREA NEXT WEEKEND. THIS SHOULD BRING MILD AND DRY WEATHER. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
