210 FXUS64 KTSA 091959 AFDTSA Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 259 PM CDT Tue Jul 9 2024 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .SHORT TERM... (Through tonight) Issued at 249 PM CDT Tue Jul 9 2024 Rain associated with the remnants of Beryl have moved well northeast of the area this afternoon, with just some small isolated showers ongoing in far NE OK and NW AR. Short range guidance suggests this activity may continue into early evening, so have maintained slight chance PoPs in accordance with HREF neighborhood probabilities. While there may be enough instability for some lightning, would not expect more than a few strikes after 7 PM. For tonight, expect mainly clear skies and calm winds. Have nudged temps down a few degrees in the typically colder spots, but lows will generally remain in the 60s areawide. && .LONG TERM... (Tomorrow through Tuesday) Issued at 249 PM CDT Tue Jul 9 2024 The remainder of the week looks predominately dry as troughing gradually shifts east of the region and places our area under NW flow aloft. That being said, spotty diurnal showers/ storms will be possible over the next several days... though coverage and probability of occurring should remain limited enough to preclude mentionable PoPs at this time. CAMs have also begun to indicate potential for some scattered showers late Wednesday night/Thursday morning for NE OK... likely associated with a passing subtle upper level disturbance. But again, opted to keep PoPs below mentionable values at this time due to low potential and limited coverage. Upper level ridging begins to intensify overhead by this weekend and persists into early next week. This will likely lead to another episode of very hot temperatures/ heat indices with heat headlines probable. High temps start the period (tomorrow) in the upper 80s and lower 90s, but climb into the upper 90s and lower 100s by early next week. Lows primarily remain in the upper 60s and 70s through the period. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1220 PM CDT Tue Jul 9 2024 Sct to bkn cu with cigs in the low VFR range will prevail thru the afternoon. Sfc winds will be N to NW with speeds generally blo impactful levels. Clear skies are expected tonight with light winds. Some fog is possible at the far NW AR terminals after midnight and have inserted tempo MVFR BR mention. Lacy && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
