.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1247 AM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025

The combination of the H500 trough axis in place across the
region, remnant MCV across NE Oklahoma and deep moisture will
lead to continued chances of widespread rain and thunderstorms
across the state today and again Monday. There will be some breaks
in precip at times, but several rounds of precip are expected
with the bulk of the activity influenced by daytime heating and
afternoon instability. Remnant boundaries and sfc features like
the MCV just to the west will help focus precip and may encourage
activity to persist into the overnight hours. Weak shear with PW
values in excess of 2 inches will contribute to some of these
storms producing very heavy rainfall.

With today and tomorrow`s increased coverage in precip and cloud
cover, temperatures may remain near to below normal across a good
chunk of the state. The areas most likely to see these reduced
temperatures include west and northern portions of the state.

Will begin to see a pattern change during the Tue-Wed timeframe as
the lingering H500 trough becomes absorbed into the mean flow and
SE US ridging begins to expand westward back over the state. This
will lead to a general increase in temperatures and limit precip
chances to isolated, diurnally driven activity.
