NEAR TERM
(REST OF TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 153 PM CDT TUE JUN 24 2025
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY THIS AFTERNOON HAS BEEN FOCUSED
FARTHER WEST COMPARED TO YESTERDAY AS THE UPPER RIDGE CENTERED
OVER THE EASTERN US HAS BUILT IN MORE OVER THE REGION, PUSHING THE
SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE PLUME WESTWARD. CAN'T RULE OUT A STRAY
SHOWER OR STORM ACROSS NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF
THE MOISTURE PLUME, BUT THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE AREA WILL REMAIN
DRY THROUGH TONIGHT WITH LOWS DROPPING INTO THE LOW TO MID 70S.

SHORT TERM
(WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 153 PM CDT TUE JUN 24 2025
ONLY SUBTLE CHANGES TO THE OVERALL PATTERN ARE EXPECTED WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY AS OUR AREA REMAINS BETWEEN THE EXPANSIVE EASTERN US
UPPER RIDGE AND TROUGHING OVER THE WESTERN US. 10-20% CHANCES FOR
MAINLY DIURNAL SHOWERS/STORMS ARE POSSIBLE EACH DAY AS ABUNDANT
SURFACE MOISTURE AND WEAK CAPPING WILL BE IN PLACE. SLIGHTLY GREATER
CHANCES (20-30%) ARE EXPECTED THURSDAY EVENING ACROSS
NORTHERN/NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA AS A WEAK DISTURBANCE BRUSHES BY THE
AREA TO OUR NORTH. OTHERWISE, HOT/HUMID CONDITIONS CONTINUE WITH
AFTERNOON HEAT INDICES 95-100 DEGREES AND LOWS ONLY DROPPING INTO
THE LOW/MID 70S EACH NIGHT.
WARE
LONG TERM
(FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 219 AM CDT TUE JUN 24 2025
FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY THE UPPER RIDGE WILL BE MAINLY ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN STATES WITH A WEAKNESS IN THE RIDGE TO OUR WEST. THIS IS
EXPECTED TO BRING MAINLY DRY WEATHER WITH AFTERNOON HIGHS
INCREASING EACH DAY. HIGHS SATURDAY WILL BE THE MID 90S TO LOW
100S. ALTHOUGH TEMPERATURES MAY BE A FEW DEGREES WARMER, AFTERNOON
HUMIDITY WILL BE SOMEWHAT LOWER, SO HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL MAINLY
BE IN THE LOWER 100S. BY SUNDAY INTO MONDAY, THE PATTERN MAY
CHANGE JUST ENOUGH FOR BETTER CHANCES OF AFTERNOON AND EVENING
SHOWERS AND STORMS. THIS WILL MAINLY BE ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF
TO TWO-THIRDS OF OKLAHOMA.

UNRESTRICTED CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES WILL CONTINUE (VFR
CONDITIONS).
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL WEAKEN AFTER SUNSET AND WILL INCREASE DURING

6000 FT ARE EXPECTED DURING THE AFTERNOON. THERE IS A LOW CHANCE
OF ISOLATED SHOWERS/STORMS LATE AFTERNOON ACROSS SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA (KDUA), BUT THE PROBABILITY IS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE IN THE
TAFS.
