AN ELONGATED AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
PLAINS. THE COLD FRONT WITH THIS LOW WAS SITUATED OVER THE MISSOURI

HAS BEEN STREAMING NORTHWARD AHEAD OF THE FRONT TODAY...WITH
DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 60S OVER THE ENTIRE CWA. 18Z SOUNDING
FROM ABR SHOWED IN EXCESS OF 3000 J/KG WITH NO CIN. INDICES ALL
INDICATING ENOUGH INSTABILITY FOR THE POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF
ROTATING SUPERCELLS. AN UPPER SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY OVER THE CENTRAL
ROCKIES WILL SWING NORTHEASTWARD AND WILL ALSO HELP TO ENHANCE THE
POSSIBILITY OF STORMS THIS EVENING. TORNADO WATCH CURRENTLY IN
EFFECT UNTIL 03Z FOR COUNTIES EAST OF THE FRONT...MAINLY FROM THE
RIVER EAST. THE FRONT LOOKS TO EXIT THE CWA AFTER MIDNIGHT...THEN
CONTINUES EASTWARD ON SUNDAY. LOW PRESSURE WILL INTENSIFY OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL CANADA...WHILE HIGH PRESSURE PUSHES OVER THE CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN PLAINS. THE UPPER TROUGH ELONGATES JUST NORTH OF THE REGION
AS WELL...WHICH LOOKS TO HELP IN KEEPING A CHANCE OF SOME WRAP
AROUND SHOWERS OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY. THE
UPPER AND SURFACE LOWS FINALLY GET PUSHED EAST BY HIGH PRESSURE
TRACKING ACROSS THE ROCKIES TUESDAY NIGHT...WHICH WILL BRING AN END
TO ANY LINGERING PRECIPITATION. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COOL
THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD...EARLY ON DUE TO AN ABUNDANCE OF CLOUD COVER
AND POSSIBLE PRECIPITATION...THEN LATER IN THE PERIOD UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF THE SURFACE HIGH.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

5H RIDGE TO OUR WEST AND DRY NW FLOW ALOFT. THERE ARE SOME MINOR

DEPARTING 85H HIGH MOVING TO EAST. BEST LOLVL JET APPEARS TO BE
DISPLACED FURTHER SOUTH HOWEVER. NO REAL LIFT NOTED AT 7H LEVEL
EITHER. 06Z GFS IS PLACING SOME LIGHT QPF IN RESPONSE TO THIS...BUT
THIS FAR OUT CANT ARGUE FOR GOING OVER CLIMO POPS...SO WILL JUST
LEAVE DRY ATTM.

AS RIDGE AMPLIFIES TO OUR WEST BY LATE IN EXTENDED...WARM FRONT GETS
NOSED UP INTO OUR REGION FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEKEND. 85H FLOW
BECOMES RATHER WEAK AND 7H LAYER SHOWS A DRYING TREND. AGREE THAT
WITH BOUNDARY DRAPED OVER THE REGION...SOMEWHERE...AND WEAK WAVES IN
NW FLOW A SLGT CHC/CHC OF TRW EXISTS FOR THE WEEKEND. FOR NOW...WILL
CONT TO LEAVE DRY FCST IN PLACE TO AVOID ANY MODEL FLIP-FLOPS.

TEMP FORECAST. GENERALLY FOLLOWED GFS ENSEMBLE TEMPS AND ADJUSTED
WHERE NECESSARY.
