A few high clouds from time to time this afternoon,
otherwise warmer temperatures can be expected with the surface
ridge axis to the east. This will also result in increased
southerly winds. Afternoon max temperatures look good per area
12z soundings, and will be left as they are for now. Remaining
first period elements look good as well.
No update planned at this time.

Area Forecast Discussion

246 PM CST Wed Nov 21 2018
.DISCUSSION...
The gradual warming trend will continue through Saturday, as mild
air remains over the southern Plains. A cold front will pass
through the region on Friday, but there will not be any meaningful
cold air advection behind it. A few showers are expected late
Thursday night through Friday afternoon, mainly near, and to the
east of, I-35.
A strong storm system will arrive Saturday night, with a surface
low centered near the northwest corner of the main body of
Oklahoma, and a strong mid/upper wave sweeping southeast across
eastern Colorado around midnight. As the surface low and upper
trough pass to the east of our forecast area, strong northwest
winds and substantially colder air will flow into Oklahoma and
north Texas. Rain chances will be very low with this system, but
winds will likely reach Wind Advisory criteria over most, if not
all, of our forecast area.
Early next week will be relatively cool, with no significant
weather, but by Wednesday, another storm system takes shape to
the west. This will increase our winds and raise temperatures for
Wednesday.
