Short-term forecast, National Weather Service, Norman
REGIONAL WEATHER DISCUSSION…
SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEAST
ACROSS PORTIONS OF WESTERN AND NORTHERN OKLAHOMA THROUGH EARLY THIS
EVENING. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL GENERALLY AVERAGE ONE TENTH OF AN
INCH OR LESS. ELSEWHERE… THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE
ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. SOME OF THE STORMS COULD PRODUCE
LARGE HAIL AND HEAVY RAIN.
THE ACTIVITY WAS OCCURRING IN RESPONSE TO AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
MOVING EAST THROUGH THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. A STATIONARY FRONT LOCATED
ACROSS NORTHEAST TEXAS SEPARATED RELATIVELY STABLE AIR IN THE LOWER
LEVELS ACROSS MUCH OF OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS FROM MORE
UNSTABLE AIR SOUTH OF THE FRONT IN EAST TEXAS. HOWEVER… THERE IS
STILL LIKELY ENOUGH ELEVATED INSTABILITY TO SUPPORT A FEW STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS OVER MAINLY SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS.
