(Today)
Issued at 332 AM CDT Mon Jun 10 2024

A few showers remained across far Southeast Oklahoma early this
morning in response to weak frontogenetic forcing in the
925-850-mb layer still yet to push south of the Red River. This
activity along with a slight chance for thunder will continue to
be possible through mid morning and then should taper off and exit
with the departing elevated frontal boundary. The northern
periphery of elevated instability remained over this
area...though with weak shear in place severe weather is not
anticipated this morning.

Across the rest of eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas
today...cloud cover is expected to scatter from north to south
with easterly winds as the southern portion of surface high
pressure drops into the region. By mid afternoon mostly clear to
partly cloudy skies are forecast with high temps in the 80s.

(Tonight through Sunday)
Issued at 332 AM CDT Mon Jun 10 2024

The cooler conditions are forecast to continue into Tuesday before
surface high pressure exits to the east/northeast. In the wake of
the departing high pressure...a weak shortwave is progged to drop
southeast across the Southern Plains Tuesday into Wednesday. With
influence of high pressure not expected to exit until Tuesday
afternoon/evening...the track of the weak shortwave is progged to
now be more southwest of the CWA. Thus...shower/storm chances now
look to remain west and southwest of the CWA into Wednesday. In
response...the temperature warming trend is now forecast to begin
Wednesday for the CWA and continue into the weekend.

Warm and more humid conditions increase late week and the weekend
with heat index values of mid 90s to around 100 deg as a ridge of
high pressure builds over the Southern Plains. This ridge should
keep a shortwave lifting out of the Desert Southwest during the
weekend to the northwest of the CWA. Thus...no significant precip
chances are in the forecast through the weekend. One thing to
note...is just outside of this forecast package...latest extended
model solutions indicate an area of low pressure lifting
northward from the Gulf into the region for early next week. This
will be something to monitor over the coming week.
