946 FXUS64 KOUN 290352 AFDOUN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Norman OK 1052 PM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 104 PM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025 - Daily chances for isolated to scattered showers and storms through next week, with highest chances Monday and Tuesday. - Humid conditions continue, with heat indices near 100 degrees most afternoons. && .NEAR TERM... (Rest of today and tonight) Issued at 104 PM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025 As minor wave, MCV, continues to move northeast of the area anticipate less convection this afternoon as in its wake we are in a general area of subsidence. A few isolated showers and storms that do occur will likely diminish or dissipate with the loss of daytime heating. Generally expect dry conditions overnight, but can not rule out an isolated shower/storm. Best chances, if you can call them that, will be across north central and southwest Oklahoma. && .SHORT TERM... (Sunday through Monday night) Issued at 104 PM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025 This scenario will continue on Sunday as hot and muggy conditions continue. Again can not rule out some isolated convection, but generally dry conditions are expected during the daytime hours. Although anticipate some cloud cover, Sunday will be one of the hotter days with highs across the area in the middle and upper 90s with heat indices around the century mark. By Sunday evening as the high settles farther south a shortwave trough will move out into the Plains and with it an increased chance of more widespread showers and thunderstorms, especially across the north Sunday night. As the main wave moves through the northern Plains an associated surface front will slide south into the state on Monday and will be the focus more additional convective development Monday afternoon across much of the area. Although widespread severe is not expected, with the abundant moisture in place and sufficient instability by late in the day, a few strong to severe storms appear possible, along with some isolated areas of heavy rainfall. This front will stall across the area on Monday and remain in place Monday night into the day Tuesday. This front will continue to be a focus, along with possible multiple outflow boundaries, for additional shower/storm development. This precip and associated widespread cloud cover should keep temperatures down at least a few degrees, especially by Tuesday. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Friday) Issued at 233 AM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025 Shower and storm chances will continue into midweek as the cold front washes out and eventually dissipates over the area. The upper ridge is then forecast to reposition itself to our southeast mid to late next week, which will leave us with fairly nebulous forcing over the area. This will most likely bring a reduction in shower/storm activity but not a total removal of rain chances with a moist and weakly capped airmass still in place. Ware && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1052 PM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025 VFR category remains forecast to prevail through the upcoming period. An ongoing complex of thunderstorms across southwest Kansas may impact the KWWR terminal after 07 UTC Sunday morning, though confidence in maintenance is low enough to promote only PROB30 mentions at this time. Additional chances for rain/thunder will remain the main concern on Sunday, with renewed development possible across northern into central Oklahoma towards the end of the period. Safe travels!
