.SHORT TERM...
(Today)
Issued at 353 AM CDT Tue Jun 4 2024

An MCS is racing southeast across southeast Oklahoma early this
morning, and the brunt of this activity should be out of the
forecast area by the start of the forecast period at 12Z. The HRRR
suggests that spotty weak convection may continue to fester
through at least the morning hours to the north of the departing
MCS, so will keep pops going in all areas today. The flood watch
continues until 15Z, but current trends suggest we may be able to
cancel it early. Afternoon high temperatures today will generally
reach the low to mid 80s.

.LONG TERM...
(Tonight through Monday)
Issued at 353 AM CDT Tue Jun 4 2024

Another MCS is expected to develop this evening in advance of an
approaching weak frontal boundary. Given the amount of available
instability and moisture, severe storms and locally heavy
rainfall will both be likely with this MCS. Current model
consensus suggests that the greatest severe/heavy rain threat may
be mainly southeast of Interstate 44, but confidence is low on
this scenario. Another short term flood watch may be needed in
some places for this complex, but will hold off for now as
confidence is low in just where the heavy rainfall will occur.

A relatively dry period is then expected Wednesday through Friday
before an uptick in overnight/early morning MCS potential returns
Friday night through the weekend. Have upper NBM pops some and
lowered high temperatures over the weekend based on the latest
trends. Drier weather looks to return early next week with
temperatures near or a bit below the seasonal averages.

(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 631 AM CDT Tue Jun 4 2024

The remnants of an overnight storm complex will continue to affect
mainly KFSM for the first couple hours of the forecast period.
Otherwise, MVFR ceilings are likely to develop at all sites this
morning and will likely persist much of the day. Ceilings will
then likely become VFR by early evening. Another storm complex is
likely tonight, with all sites expected to be impacted.
