SEVERE THUNDERSTORM. RISK...Limited. AREA...Eastern Oklahoma into West Central Arkansas. ONSET...Early Afternoon. HEAVY RAIN. RISK...Limited. AREA...Mainly Southeast Oklahoma. ONSET...Mid Morning. DISCUSSION... Thunderstorm chances continue across eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas today as a storm complex moves eastward into the region this morning and a weak disturbance lifts into the region this afternoon. The greater storm potential is across southeast Oklahoma into west central Arkansas, where a limited potential exists for a few strong to severe storms. Locally damaging wind and hail are the main threats through this afternoon. Instability and severe potentials should weaken this evening with the loss of daytime heating. Slow storm motions, generally less than 20 mph will allow for a locally heavy rainfall potential as well today. Daytime storms should weaken this evening, though additional storm chances remain overnight with a frontal boundary sagging southeast toward the region. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT... Local Spotter Activation May Be Needed. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday. FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. MONDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. High Wind Potential. TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...Heavy Rain Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... A surface frontal boundary is forecast to sag southeast into eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas Friday and remain over the region into Saturday. At the same time, another weak disturbance is forecast to move over the region. This will allow for thunderstorm chances to continue Friday and Saturday for eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. A few storms could again become strong to severe each afternoon ahead/south of the boundary. These daily storm chances look to taper off by Sunday evening with upper level high pressure building into the southern Plains. A more defined low pressure system moves out into the Plains early next week with a cold front moving into the region Tuesday. This will increase storm chances again for eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. Limited severe potentials also develop again early next week. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information. $$
