012 FXUS64 KTSA 122308 AFDTSA Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 608 PM CDT Wed Jun 12 2024 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (Through tonight ) Issued at 206 PM CDT Wed Jun 12 2024 Quiet weather tonight, with light south wind and higher dew points resulting in warmer overnight lows. && .LONG TERM... (Tomorrow through Wednesday) Issued at 206 PM CDT Wed Jun 12 2024 Upper ridge over the Four Corners will expand into the Southern PLains Thursday, with hotter and more humid airmass spreading north. A Northern stream wave will push a cold front south, eventually reaching central KS by late Thursday, with scattered storms developing along the boundary, with a non-zero chance of some making a run at northeast OK. General consensus among guidance remains for these storms to largely fade before making it this far south, and as such the forecast for Thursday night into Friday remains dry. The above mentioned boundary will remain just to our northeast through Friday, possibly keeping low storm chances near our forecast area for both Friday and Saturday. Otherwise hot and humid conditions will continue. A stronger wave then moves into the Central Plains Saturday night with low storm chances spreading into northeast OK late Saturday night into Sunday morning. Ridge axis will then shift far enough east to allow deeper subtropical moisture to move north out of the Gulf, with low precip chances returning early next week, along with a slight break in the heat for a day or two. && .AVIATION...

(00Z TAFS) Issued at 608 PM CDT Wed Jun 12 2024 VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the period for all sites as high pressure dominates the region. Some patchy visibility reductions are possible near rivers or lakes late tonight, but confidence is too low to mention at any site at this time. Otherwise near calm winds tonight will come up again out of the south-southwest during the day tomorrow generally from 5-10 knots with some higher gusts near 15 knots possible across NE OK sites tomorrow afternoon.
