.SHORT TERM...
(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 250 AM CDT Thu Jun 13 2024

Warming trend continues today under mostly sunny skies and
increasing southerly winds. Cold front extending from central MO
through western KS by early evening will be a focus for storm
development. These storms will spread east and south through the
evening and may move into areas near the OK/KS border as they
steadily weaken. Confidence remains low in both coverage and
southward extent of any storms and most areas are likely to remain
dry through tonight.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 250 AM CDT Thu Jun 13 2024

The cold front / thunderstorm outflow boundary will likely slide
into portions of NE OK / far NW AR on Friday before steadily
losing definition. The boundary will likely pool a corridor of
higher dewpoints and resultant higher afternoon heat index
readings. Additionally, isolated storms are possible along the
boundary but, again, confidence remains low in both storm
development and overall coverage.

Shortwave trough passes across the central CONUS late Saturday
into early Sunday. The majority of storms associated with this
feature are expected to be north of local region with a low chance
extending across northeast OK. Upper ridge centers over the SE
CONUS by Monday with strengthening southerly flow on its periphery
drawing deeper moisture northward into the region. Isolated to
scattered afternoon storms are expected both Monday and Tuesday
and primarily across far E OK / NW AR. High temps will cool a few
degrees from previous days but remain above mid June normals.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1222 AM CDT Thu Jun 13 2024

Overnight tonight mostly clear skies and light winds will remain
common across the CWA. During the day Thursday few to scattered
mid and high clouds are forecast with winds becoming south to
southwesterly. High clouds look to increase across the northern
half of the CWA Thursday evening in response to potential
convective development along a frontal boundary in Kansas. At
this time any precip should remain north/northwest of Eastern
Oklahoma TAF sites. VFR conditions are forecast through the TAF
period.
