.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 346 PM CDT Sat Sep 23 2017/

DISCUSSION...
Clouds that have formed late this morning and afternoon will
dissipate by early evening and should yield no rain. West and
north of our area, several areas of rain and thunderstorms have
developed ahead of a large western trough and stronger mid/upper
level flow. As the trough lifts northeast over the next several
days, rain and thunderstorm chances will increase, especially
across western Oklahoma and western north Texas Sunday into
Monday.

Meridional flow and better ascent to our west will keep higher
rain chances across the high Plains, but scattered showers and a
few storms may move into western Oklahoma Sunday into Sunday
night. As a surface front moves across Oklahoma Monday into
Tuesday, rain and thunderstorm chances will increase across
central and southern Oklahoma and north Texas. Some of the rain
may be heavy Sunday night into Monday, especially across western
Oklahoma and western north Texas.

The surface cold front will be well south of the area by late
Tuesday into Wednesday, but an elevated boundary should result in
at least widely scattered showers. By late week, another push of
cooler air drier air will arrive which will bring an end to rain
and storm chances.
