DISCUSSION...The latest radar imagery shows the leading edge of a line of showers and thunderstorms advancing into areas of far eastern OK and northwest AR. This activity will continue to move east-southeast going through the mid-morning hours and will likely tend to maintain its loose organization as it encounters a moderate to strongly unstable airmass characterized by MLCAPE values of 2000 to 2500 J/kg along with a modest southwest low-level jet of up to 30 kts. There is some evidence of a weak shortwave impulse over eastern OK as well, and this energy may also tend to favor convective sustenance for a while this morning. Rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches/hour are expected with some of the stronger cells, and the relatively slow cell-motions may favor some spotty 3 to 4 inch totals over the next few hours. Given the relatively wet antecedent conditions across portions of eastern OK and into western AR from heavy rains over the last couple of days, the additional rainfall this morning may result in some localized concerns for flash flooding.
