.UPDATE...
Issued at 743 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

The going short term appears to be in good shape. Made a few minor
tweaks to PoPs and temps but otherwise the forecast is on track.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Through tonight)
Issued at 245 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

The mid level low/ upper trough axis will linger over the region
tonight with persisting precip chances. A few lightning strikes
will be possible, but instability is likely to be quite weak over
the FA overnight and generally not expecting much in the way of
thunderstorms. Highest PoPs and rainfall are likely to occur over
far E OK and NW AR zones tonight, though wrap around showers will
remain possible across the remainder of the area as well. Highest
PWATs are still expected to stay just south and east of the CWA
through tonight, but heavy rain and potential for localized flash
flooding will still remain a concern across far southeast Oklahoma
and west-central Arkansas. Otherwise, expect light winds
overnight with low temperatures in the upper 60s.

.LONG TERM...
(Tomorrow through Thursday)
Issued at 245 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

The upper trough lingers over the region Friday before gradually
shifting east late Friday into Saturday. This will keep shower and
thunderstorm chances in the forecast for much of Friday...
becoming increasingly restricted to eastern zones with time. A
locally heavy rain threat continues Friday across eastern Oklahoma
and northwest Arkansas. Forecast soundings suggest instability
will be greater tomorrow, especially across eastern Oklahoma, and
it is not out of question to see a strong storm or two develop
tomorrow afternoon with potential for gusty winds, very heavy
rainfall, and small hail. Low to medium shower and thunderstorm
chances persist tomorrow night and Saturday as the upper trough
exits. Meanwhile, the Desert SW ridge begins to amplify, placing
the area under N-NW flow aloft. A couple weak disturbances
embedded within the flow will impact the S Plains through the
weekend/ early next week, and will maintain chance PoPs through
Monday afternoon.

The exact placement and likelihood of any severe impacts will
likely depend on mesoscale evolution over the coming days, but
with ample instability in place and a couple of shortwaves moving
through the NW flow, it does appear that a limited severe threat
could develop Saturday into Sunday. Shear will again be fairly
weak, which could limit the overall potential, but certainly would
not be surprised if severe probabilities trend up over the
weekend as more short range guidance becomes available and finer
details are resolved. Damaging wind gusts would likely be the
primary hazard if this severe threat were to materialize.

By late Monday into Tuesday, heights increase across the Southern
Plains and drier conditions are forecast. Model variability
persists regarding a potential shortwave toward the middle of next
week. Some solutions suggest little in the way of impacts for our
area as the wave rides along the northern periphery of the
ridge... while others suggest a more amplified trough digs into
the region. For now, will stick with NBM PoPs which reflect a
slight chance of showers and thunderstorms across northern
portions of the area Wednesday and Wednesday night. In either
scenario, the trend overall appears to be more towards drier and
warmer conditions by late next week.

Temperatures will gradually warm through the forecast period,
with highs in the 80s this weekend and 90s next week. This,
combined with high dewpoints, will allow heat indices to climb...
potentially near or above 100 degrees next week.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 640 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

MVFR and VFR ceilings will lower again after sunset this evening
with widespread MVFR to IFR cigs expected through the overnight
hours. Areas of showers along with mist/fog will also continue
overnight tonight with some reduced visibilities possible across
most of the area late tonight/early tomorrow morning. Showers
should push mostly east of the area tomorrow morning, but chances
for scattered thunderstorms will increase by afternoon across most
of eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. Winds will remain
light, becoming more southerly to southwesterly with time.
Ceilings will gradually improve into the latter part of the TAF
period, with VFR conditions returning outside of any thunderstorms
that develop.
