...UPDATE...

.DISCUSSION...
ALL SIGNS CONTINUE TO POINT TOWARD SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING PRIMARILY ACROSS NE OK. STORMS MAY BE
JUST AS INTENSE FURTHER SOUTH AND EAST ACROSS EAST CENTRAL OK INTO
NW AR HOWEVER THEY ARE LIKELY TO BE REDUCED IN NUMBER WITH
EASTWARD AND SOUTHWARD EXTENT. LESS DEEP MOISTURE AND A STRONG
CAPPING INVERSION CONTINUE TO SUPPORT MUCH LOWER STORM CHANCES
TOWARD SE OK.
FORECAST WIND PROFILES SUPPORT A WINDOW OF FAVORABLE SHEAR
PARAMETERS FOR STRONG TO VIOLENT TORNADOES. WHETHER THIS IS
REALIZED WILL DEPEND LARGELY ON EVENTUAL STORM/S/
EVOLUTION...HOWEVER UNDERSTANDING THE POTENTIAL EXISTS IS
NOTEWORTHY.
UPDATED FORECAST WILL REFINE CLOUD COVER AND ADJUST FOR RETREATING
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM EARLY MORNING CONVECTION. THE PRESENCE AND
PLACEMENT OF THIS BOUNDARY...HOWEVER SUBTLE...MAY ALSO BE KEY IN
THE HIGHEST TORNADIC POTENTIAL THIS EVENING.
