THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK COVERS NORTHERN…WESTERN…
CENTRAL…AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA…AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS.

.DAY ONE…TODAY AND TONIGHT…

THUNDERSTORM OUTLOOK…
THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT EXPECTED.

DISCUSSION…
THE INFLUENCE OF AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVING FROM NEW MEXICO
ACROSS THE PANHANDLES INTO WESTERN KANSAS IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN
NORTH AND WEST OF THE NWS NORMAN COUNTY WARNING AREA. LIKEWISE…
LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH A DISTURBANCE MOVING NORTH OUT OF LOUISIANA IS
EXPECTED TO REMAIN SOUTH AND EAST OF THE AREA. GIVEN INCREASING LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE…THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IS CERTAINLY NOT ZERO.
HOWEVER…THE POSITION OF THE AREA BETWEEN THE TWO MAJOR SOURCES OF
LIFT PRESENT WILL LEAD TO A LOW CHANCE OF STORM DEVELOPMENT.

PROBABILITY TABLE…
VALID THROUGH 700 AM CDT MONDAY AUG 30.
PROBABILITY OF THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING IN THE
              NWS NORMAN COUNTY WARNING AREA…15 PERCENT.
PROBABILITY OF SEVERE STORMS IF STORMS OCCUR…5 PERCENT.

OTHER HAZARDOUS WEATHER…
NONE.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN…MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY…

THUNDERSTORM OUTLOOK…
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE MUCH OF THE WEEK…
MAINLY DURING THE AFTERNOON.  INCREASED INTENSITY AND COVERAGE OF
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED LATE IN THE WEEK AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES.

OTHER HAZARDOUS WEATHER…
WITH INCREASING TEMPERATURES AND MOISTURE… HEAT INDICES WILL
APPROACH OR EXCEED 100 DEGREES AT MANY LOCATIONS EARLY THIS WEEK.
