631 FXUS64 KTSA 201531 AFDTSA Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 1031 AM CDT Sat Jul 20 2024 ...New SHORT TERM... .SHORT TERM... (The rest of today ) Issued at 1027 AM CDT Sat Jul 20 2024 A decaying band of precipitation is moving into northeast OK, and could bring a few showers as far east as the Tulsa area before it falls apart. Otherwise, much of the day today will feature a mix of clouds and sun with mild temperatures in the 80s to around 90F. Some CAM guidance brings a reinvigoration of showers or thunderstorms by mid afternoon, but more likely any widespread storm activity will hold off until the evening or overnight as an upper level feature approaches the area. && .LONG TERM... (Tonight through Friday) Issued at 309 AM CDT Sat Jul 20 2024 Shower and thunderstorm chances will increase across the area tonight and Sunday as an upper level disturbance rotates around the upper trough over the area. Some locally heavy rainfall amounts will be possible, especially in northeast Oklahoma tonight and early Sunday. The upper trough will remain over the area for much of the next week, but will gradually weaken and lift northeast leaving more of a generalized upper weakness over the area by late week. Shower and thunderstorm chances will continue through the early part of the week, with convective chances lessening some later in the week and becoming more diurnally driven. Temperatures will also slowly increase next week, but likely continue to remain slightly below the seasonal averages. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 538 AM CDT Sat Jul 20 2024 Scattered showers/storms to our west early this morning are expected to diminish before impacting any TAF sites in northeast Oklahoma. There will be a greater potential for showers/storms to impact area sites later this evening and into the overnight hours. VFR conditions are expected to prevail. However, MVFR conditions will be possible within thunderstorm areas. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
