AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
327 AM CST FRI DEC 25 2009

.DISCUSSION...
A MAJOR WINTER STORM CONTINUES EXIT THE AREA EARLY THIS MORNING
WITH GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES NOW OVER THE AREA. THE EXCESSIVE WINDS
HAVE DECREASED ALTHOUGH THEY WILL CONTINUE TO GUST NEAR 25 MPH
TODAY WHICH WILL RESULT IN WIND CHILLS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS OVER
MOST OF THE REGION THIS MORNING. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN BELOW
FREEZING OVER A LARGE PART OF THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL
LIKELY CONTINUE TO BE COLDER THAN GUIDANCE FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS. ANOTHER LOW DROPPING SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE PLAINS
WILL HELP TO REINFORCE THE SURFACE RIDGE OVER THE AREA BY LATE
FRIDAY. NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THIS SYSTEM COULD GENERATE SOME
FLURRIES BUT FOR NOW WILL ONLY INCREASE CLOUDS SOMEWHAT. OTHERWISE
DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED THROUGH MONDAY WITH RELATIVELY COLD
TEMPERATURES CONTINUING. BY TUESDAY... THE CHANCE FOR MIXED
PRECIPITATION WILL INCREASE AS A SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST
WHILE AREAS OF LOW-LEVEL SUBFREEZING TEMPERATURES REMAIN OVER THE
AREA. THE SCATTERED PRECIPITATION WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO PART OF
WEDNESDAY.
