Area forecast discussion, Jul 22, 5:26 PM CST, 4 hours 11 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK 626 PM CDT WED JUL 22 2015 .DISCUSSION... PLEASE SEE THE 00Z AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW. && .AVIATION... VFR WILL APPLY THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. WIND SPEEDS WILL DROP TO AROUND 10 KT OR BELOW AFTER SUNSET FOR MOST TERMINALS AND REMAIN SOUTHERLY. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS REMAIN POSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY THURSDAY AM ACROSS NORTHERN OK NEAR PNC. WILL INCLUDE A PROB30 GROUP THERE FOR NOW...BUT A TEMPO TSRA GROUP MAY BE INTRODUCED IN A LATER FORECAST IF CONFIDENCE INCREASES. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 402 PM CDT WED JUL 22 2015/ DISCUSSION... THE UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD BACK NORTH OVER THE NEXT DAY OR TWO...THEN TAKE UP RESIDENCE OVER OKLAHOMA AND NORTH TEXAS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. ITS POSITION WILL SUPPORT LOW CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER FAR NORTHERN OKLAHOMA FROM TIME TO TIME...AS WEAK WAVES IN THE FLOW ALOFT PASS OVER THOSE AREAS. THIS WILL ALSO LEAD TO HIGHER TEMPERATURES. WITH THE HIGH LEVELS OF HUMIDITY...HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL LIKELY BE MET...POSSIBLY BEGINNING TOMORROW. THE NEXT SHIFT OR TWO WILL NEED TO REEVALUATE THE SITUATION...AND WILL ISSUE ANY HEADLINES THAT ARE DEEMED NECESSARY. BY FRIDAY...HOWEVER...IT IS NEARLY CERTAIN THAT HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL BE MET OVER MUCH OF THE EASTERN PARTS OF OUR FORECAST AREA...AND POSSIBLY EVEN HEAT WARNING CRITERIA. HUMIDITY LEVELS SHOULD BEGIN TO DECLINE SLOWLY OVER TIME...BUT THE HEAT WILL REMAIN...SO IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL WHEN WE WILL BE ABLE TO DISPENSE WITH THE ADVISORIES AGAIN. A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY OCCUR TONIGHT ALMOST ANYWHERE IN OUR FORECAST AREA...ALTHOUGH THE NORTH IS MOST LIKELY TO HAVE STORMS. THERE IS A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY AND WEAK WAVE ALOFT THAT WILL SLIGHTLY ENHANCE CHANCES OF RAIN IN THE NORTH. OTHER THAN THE KANSAS BORDER AREA...CHANCES APPEAR TO BE TOO LOW TO WARRANT ANY MENTION IN THE FORECAST FOR TONIGHT. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
