NWS Forecaster Discussion
781 fxus64 ktsa 290836 afdtsa Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 336 am CDT Friday Aug 29 2008 Discussion... weak frontal boundary moving into northeast Oklahoma early this morning will sag south through the area today. A few showers and thunderstorms have developed north of the front near the Kansas border and these may persist for the next few hours. Low level convergence will be quite weak today and the upper ridge over the area remains rather strong. Therefore expect only about 20 percent coverage of convection today and will use areal coverage wording. The drier air lags the frontal boundary and some of this drier air may make it into parts of northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas late tonight and Saturday morning before it retreats Saturday afternoon. Will carry isolated showers and storms again Saturday but will then drop the mention of rain for the rest of the Holiday weekend. Beyond Tuesday...the forecast confidence really drops off as the movement of Gustav will hold the key to our weather. The models are very divergent on this with the European model (ecmwf) most aggressive in bringing the remains of Gustav directly over our area. At this point in time...feel chance probability of precipitation and a slight cooldown in maximum temperatures is the best course of action. Did not stray too far from the GFS MOS maximums the next couple days but went a bit warmer than the GFS MOS for minimums tonight. The GFS MOS probability of precipitation are too low today as areal coverage is likely to be greater than 2-5 percent. && Preliminary point temps/pops... tul 94 72 92 70 / 20 10 20 10 fsm 96 72 94 70 / 20 10 20 10 mlc 95 71 93 69 / 20 10 20 10 bvo 92 66 90 65 / 20 10 20 10 fyv 91 65 89 63 / 20 10 20 10 byv 90 65 88 63 / 20 10 20 10 mko 94 71 92 69 / 20 10 20 10 Mio 91 66 89 64 / 20 10 20 10 f10 94 71 92 69 / 20 10 20 10 hhw 95 72 93 70 / 20 10 20 10 && Tsa watches/warnings/advisories...
