.SHORT TERM...
(The rest of tonight)
Issued at 930 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025

Isolated shower/storm activity across southeast Oklahoma and
northwest Arkansas has dissipated due to the loss of daytime
heating. In response, passing high clouds are forecast to be common
overnight tonight as the CWA remains on the western periphery of
a dome of high pressure. Like the previous couple nights, light
southerly flow combined with low level moisture will help to keep
overnight lows in the 70s for most of the CWA. For the evening
update, have added minor details to hourly temp/dewpoint trends
tonight to account for latest observations. Otherwise, the going
forecast configuration represents the mentioned above and looks to
be on track.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday through Wednesday)
Issued at 130 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025

The deep moist plume which currently extends through W TX will be
drawn eastward on Thursday with potential for a corridor of higher
precip coverage extending into parts of NE OK during the
afternoon. The general pattern remains in place through Saturday
with the moist axis focused along a weak frontal zone.
Temperatures will continue to trend near seasonal normals.

An uptick in shower and storm coverage is possible late in the
weekend into early next week as the upper ridge weakens and the
influence from a stronger wave passes to our north.
