Forecast 8/26/09

Synopsis:

An upper level trough is just northwest of the forecast area with a cold front along the same axis.

0Z 200mb:




Discussion:

Very little upper level support for the system entering the forecast area as depicted in the graphic above. The storms to the west of Tulsa are making very slow progress to the east tonight. The main concern is heavy rain tomorrow, not severe weather tonight.

3Z (9PM CDT) Radar Image:




The most likely scenario is a chance of a bit of rain and thunder tonight and then training storms along the cold front tomorrow. Where the front decides to park will determine rainfall amounts. See the current surface map below.

3Z Meso Surface:



Secondary shot of cold air looks to be on track for Sunday after an awesome cool Friday and Saturday. Comments and questions are always welcome. Hope you enjoy the forecast...
