DISCUSSION...
A line of strong thunderstorms along a cold front moving southward
through the area is located across parts of northeast Oklahoma
early this morning. Thunderstorms will continue to move to the
south and east through the morning and into the afternoon hours, 
with potential for both severe weather and heavy rainfall.
Damaging winds will be the main severe weather threat, with
locally large hail possible. The severe weather potential should
diminish by late afternoon as colder air moves in behind the
front.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Likely.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.
WEDNESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential.
THURSDAY...Thunderstorm and Heavy Rain Potential.
FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...Thunderstorm Potential.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
An active weather pattern will continue through the weekend and
into early next week, with multiple opportunities for additional 
showers and thunderstorms. Thursday night and into Friday appears 
to feature the best chance for heavy rains as a disturbance moves 
through the region and deep layer moisture remains high. Overall
the potential for severe weather is very low for much of the
period, except for possibly Friday night.
