THUNDERSTORMS WITH DANGEROUS LIGHTNING. RISK…Limited. AREA…Far Southeast Oklahoma. ONSET…Ongoing. WINTER WEATHER. SNOW ACCUMULATION. RISK…Limited. AREA…Northeast Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas. ONSET…Late this Evening. Additional Accumulations in Later Periods. SIGNIFICANT WINDS. RISK…Limited. AREA…Eastern Oklahoma and Western Arkansas. ONSET…Ongoing. DISCUSSION… Light rain continues across much of the area this afternoon, with a few rumbles of thunder still possible near the Red River through the afternoon. Gusty northeast winds will also continue this afternoon and evening as a potent storm system moves into the region. By this evening, a transition to wet snow is likely as a potent upper low moves across southeast Oklahoma. Given marginal temperature profiles, snow accumulations will be largely be determined by the exact track of the passing storm system and any mesoscale banding that occurs. This may lead to varying snow amounts with updated forecasts. At this time, accumulations generally of one to three inches are forecast primarily near the Interstate 44 corridor in northeast Oklahoma into northwest northwest Arkansas, primarily on grassy or elevated surfaces. A corridor of higher snowfall is becoming increasingly likely across far northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas where heavier banding is likely to occur. Snow totals of four plus inches will be possible in this zone through the duration of the storm. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT… Spotter Activation Not Expected. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN…Monday through Saturday. MONDAY…Winter Weather Potential…High Wind Potential. TUESDAY…No Hazards. WEDNESDAY…High Wind Potential. THURSDAY…No Hazards. FRIDAY…Thunderstorm Potential…High Wind Potential. SATURDAY…High Wind Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION… Snow and rain will taper off Monday morning, but some lingering heavier snow is possible across far northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. Any travel impacts that may develop should be limited to late tonight into the Monday morning commute as temperatures quickly warm above freezing. Dry and warmer weather is expected through mid week. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information.
