Forecast as of 10:55 am CDT on May 12, 2008

Now
regional weather discussion... scattered light showers will continue to move quickly northeast across portions of North Texas and far southern Oklahoma. Most of this activity will be fairly sparse and light...and will only affect locations east of Wichita Falls and Duncan. Thunderstorms over central and northern Texas...mainly near and south of Interstate-20...will also move quickly to the east and northeast and stay south of the NWS Norman County warning area through noon. At 1045 am...a cold front extended from near just west of Medford and Enid...to Weatherford...to just west of Lawton...to Seymour Texas. North and west of this front...gusty northwest winds were seen...along with temperatures in the 60s and lower 70s...and drier air. East and south of the front...mostly cloudy skies dominated... along with muggy conditions and gusty south winds. The front is expected to slow down its eastward progression and stall somewhere near the Interstate-44 corridor this afternoon. It will be possible for the front to retreat slightly westward during the late afternoon hours as a strong storm system moves closer to the region. In the warm and humid airmass east of the front...the atmosphere was becoming moderately unstable. Cape values late this morning were approaching 2000 to 3000...but the airmass continues to be strongly capped by a layer of warm air. This cap is not expected to be overcome by deep convection until the mid or late afternoon hours. A special weather balloon will be released during the early afternoon to observe the evolution of the cap.
