AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
443 AM CDT WED MAY 22 2013

.DISCUSSION...
RAIN WILL TAKE A BREAK TODAY ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA...BUT IS
EXPECTED TO RETURN TONIGHT. MOISTURE RETURN AND FRONTOGENESIS
ALOFT AND AT THE SURFACE WILL LEAD TO INCREASING RAIN CHANCES LATE
TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW. SEVERE STORMS ARE VERY UNLIKELY...EXCEPT IN
SOUTHWEST OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN NORTH TEXAS TOMORROW EVENING AND
INTO THE NIGHT.

LOW-LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW AND SOUTHWESTERLIES ALOFT WILL BE THE
RULE FROM THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. A FEW SHORTWAVE
TROUGHS WILL RIPPLE THROUGH THE UPPER-LEVEL FLOW...POSSIBLY
BRINGING SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER...A
RATHER STRONG LOW-LEVEL INVERSION /CAP/ WILL BE IN PLACE FOR MOST
OF THIS TIME...WHICH WILL KEEP RAIN CHANCES FAIRLY LOW AFTER
FRIDAY.
