163 FXUS64 KOUN 071115 AFDOUN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Norman OK 615 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 605 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 - Episodic rounds of showers and thunderstorms will continue this weekend. Severe weather is expected. - Heavy rainfall and localized flooding will be possible this morning. A Flood Watch is in effect until 12 PM Saturday. && .NEAR TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 1251 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 A gradual weakening of a east-west oriented line of storms near and south of I-40 is expected to occur this morning. By mid/late morning most of the area is expected to be rain-free as most of the storms dissipate or shift east of the area. Additional convection may occur this afternoon along a weak surface front or affective outflow boundary from the morning storms across southern Oklahoma southward into north Texas. Instability and deep-layer shear will again be sufficient for severe storms, along with some heavy rainfall. Flood Watch continues through midday today. This activity will be slow to shift south overnight and may linger into Sunday morning. Much of the remainder of the area looks to remain dry Saturday afternoon and evening. && .SHORT TERM... (Sunday through Monday night) Issued at 1251 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 Daytime hours on Sunday should remain dry and very warm as front lifts north through the area toward the Kansas border. This along with a southward approaching cold front and associated upslope flow will result in another complex of storms developing across the higher terrain of southwest Kansas into the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles Sunday afternoon. This complex will then propagate southeast across the area Sunday afternoon and evening with hail, damaging winds and very heavy rainfall. Again expect a lull in the precip Monday in the wake of overnight complex. Some afternoon and evening storms are possible late Monday into Monday night across the Red River valley. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Friday) Issued at 1251 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 As we go into Tuesday a bit of a split flow over the western part of the conus with southern stream system moving through the southern Rockies out into Texas bringing additional rain chances to mainly southern OK and north TX. This system will then become closed off and slowly lift north and northeast Wednesday into Thursday with more widespread rain chances. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 605 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 Storm coverage early this morning is limited to I-40 and south, and that will continue to shift southward and taper off over the next couple of hours. Behind the boundary, skies are largely VFR, though a brief corridor of MVFR ceilings may develop close to I-35 this morning. Winds are northerly immediately behind the storm outflow, but it will wash out and light and variable winds will prevail. Meister && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
