.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 647 AM CDT Tue Jun 19 2018/

DISCUSSION...
Aviation discussion for the 12 UTC TAFs is below.

AVIATION...
MVFR conditions will occur southeast of KLTS-KCSM-KEND before
17 UTC, then improve to VFR.

Additional MVFR conditions will occur after 06 UTC Wednesday
mainly southeast of KCSM-KPNC. There is an outside chance of IFR
conditions southeast of this line during this time frame, but did
not mention due to low confidence of occurrence.

Added VCTS at KWWR along with gusty north/northeast surface winds
after 08 UTC Wednesday due to moderate confidence of occurrence.

Otherwise, chances of TSRA/SHRA remain too low to mention.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 302 AM CDT Tue Jun 19 2018/

DISCUSSION...
A few showers, perhaps thunderstorms, may occur today across
south-central and southeast Oklahoma, as moisture and lift move
into that area--associated with a tropical disturbance over
Texas. This will also hold down temperatures a few degrees in
that area.

Models continue to advertise thunderstorm complexes over the High
Plains tonight, most likely affecting northwest Oklahoma early
Wednesday morning. Low-level convergence along any outflow
boundaries emanating from these storms, along with plenty of
moisture, will result in a continued "good" chance of
showers/storms through the day and into tonight.

Similar conditions, consisting of shortwave troughs aloft, plenty
of low-level moisture, upslope low-level flow will result in
chances of storms complexes again each night this weekend and into
early next week.

All the rain, clouds, and low-level moisture will help keep
afternoon temperatures down, except for southwest Oklahoma and
adjacent parts of Texas, where rain chances will generally be
lowest through the period.
