.SHORT TERM...
(Today)
Issued at 1240 AM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

A well defined MCV continues to work its way across far southeast OK
early this morning. Models are in good agreement it will continue to
shift east-northeastward into northwest AR through the early morning
hours this morning. Elevated convection rapidly developed on the
eastern fringes of the center earlier Monday evening. Latest hi-res
model guidance indicates additional convection development across
far eastern OK/west-central AR by 3-4 AM, spreading northward into
far northwest AR by mid-morning. Still some uncertainty how all of
this will evolve, but signals for moderate to heavy rain remain
intact as the MCV continues to move east/northeastward through the
morning. A Flood Watch remains in effect for much of southeast OK
and all of the northwest AR counties through 10 AM this morning. The
MCV and associated rainfall is expected to shift north and east of
the forecast area by late morning.

With deep layer moisture still in place, a few diurnally-driven
pulse-type showers and thunderstorms may develop this afternoon,
mainly across southeast OK and northwest AR. Kept low-end PoPs (20-
30%) through this afternoon before dissipating around sunset this
evening. Otherwise, expect mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies by
this afternoon, with temperatures rising into the upper 80s and
lower 90s for most locations. Winds will remain out of the south or
southwest between 5-15 mph.

.LONG TERM...
(Tonight through Monday)
Issued at 1240 AM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

The overall trend in the long-term period will be drying out and
warming up as upper-level troughing weakens and ridging begins to
dominate over the area. A shortwave trough will move across the
northern/central Plains during the daytime Wednesday. This will push
a surface cold front southward from the central Plains towards OK
Wednesday afternoon/evening. Except for a slight chance (10-20%
chance) of pulse showers/storms during the daytime, mainly for far
northeast OK and far northwest AR, the best support for rain will
likely remain north of the forecast area through the day. However,
guidance suggests showers and thunderstorms that develop along the
frontal boundary will spread southward into the forecast area by
Thursday morning, mostly impacting northeast OK and far northwest
AR. Maintained low storm chances near the KS/MO borders through
Thursday night.

Upper-level ridging really begins to build over the region by Friday
and rain chances become suppressed through the upcoming weekend and
into early next week as the ridge strengthens. Sweltering heat will
become the main headline, if not by Friday, then surely by Saturday
as afternoon temperatures soar into the mid-upper 90s and heat
indices jump between 100-105+F each afternoon through the end of the
forecast period for most locations. Heat Advisories look probable
for at least some portions of the CWA Friday-Monday.

Issued at 630 AM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

Ongoing showers from NW AR into SE OK will continue to spread
eastward with chances for flight impacts decreasing at
corresponding terminals by mid morning. VFR conditions are
expected to largely prevail through the remainder of the forecast.
Isolated afternoon showers and storms are forecast however overall
coverage remains too low to warrant mention at this time.
