An urban flash flood threat will exist as a result. DISCUSSION...A gradually growing cluster of strong thunderstorms just west of Oklahoma City is expected to grow upscale over the next 1 to 2 hours and eventually phase in with a more regional/elongated axis of convection farther down to the southeast over central to southeast OK overnight. Strong instability and an increasing low-level jet over the region are the dominant factors with the upscale growth of convection expected in the near-term. Rainfall rates with the approaching activity from Grady, Caddo and Canadian Counties are expected to increase to locally over 2"/hour, and given the cooling cloud top trends in GOES-IR satellite imagery, this cluster of convection should attain further organization while expanding overall in coverage. Concerns will exist over the next couple of hours for the Oklahoma City metropolitan area and adjacent suburbs as these slow-moving cells advance and also perhaps locally backbuild and train over the same area. Expect as much as 3 to 4 inches of rain with locally heavier totals over the next couple of hours. Flash flooding is likely given the urban sensitivities and wet overall antecedent conditions.
