AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
233 PM CDT WED JUN 12 2013

.DISCUSSION...
AN ELONGATED MID AND UPPER RIDGE...WILL CONTINUE TO BRING HOT AND
DRY WEATHER TO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS THROUGH FRIDAY.
MEANWHILE...A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL MOVE ACROSS THE NORTHERN
THIRD/HALF OF OKLAHOMA TONIGHT BEFORE STALLING ON THURSDAY. THIS
MAY BRING SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPERATURES TO NORTH CENTRAL/CENTRAL
OKLAHOMA.

THE RIDGE WILL BUILD EAST OF THE AREA OVER THE WEEKEND
AS A TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND
NORTHERN ROCKIES. THIS WILL ALSO ALLOW A MID-LEVEL
LOW/TROUGH TO MOVE NORTH FROM SOUTHERN TEXAS OVER
THE WEEKEND.  THIS FEATURE WILL BRING AN INCREASE
IN CLOUDS ALONG WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN AND LOWER
AFTERNOON HIGHS.

A QUASI-ZONAL FLOW ACROSS THE COUNTRY EARLY NEXT
WEEK...WILL ALLOW FOR A CONTINUED CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY INTO MAYBE TUESDAY.

AN UPPER RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO REBUILD OVER THE FA BY THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK...WHICH WILL BRING MORE HOT AND DRY WEATHER.
