AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
240 AM MST THU DEC 29 2005

.DISCUSSION...THE 09Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES A TROUGH FROM EASTERN
WYOMING INTO EASTERN COLORADO. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWING FAST
MOVING UPPER LOW OVER NORTHERN UTAH. COMPOSITE RADAR LOOP SHOWING A
BROAD SHIELD OF RETURNS ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO WITH SOME WIDELY
SCATTERED RW-.

FORECAST CONCERNS ARE POPS/WEATHER AND WIND.

AN UPPER TROUGH WILL MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. A RIDGE
WILL FOLLOW TONIGHT AND CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. AT THE
SURFACE...A TROUGH WILL MOVE EAST ALLOWING A FRONT TO COME THROUGH
THE FORECAST AREA AROUND 00Z FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN
BEHIND THE FRONT AND CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY. BY FRIDAY NIGHT
ANOTHER LEE TROUGH DEVELOPS AND CONTINUES THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.

MOISTURE IS STILL LIMITED WITH THE SHORTWAVE COMING THROUGH TODAY.
HOWEVER THERE IS A DECENT CHANCE THAT MOISTURE WILL BE BETTER NEAR
MCK AREA. CURRENT RADAR RETURNS OVER EASTERN COLORADO EXTEND FAR
ENOUGH SOUTH SO THAT SPRINKLES LOOK POSSIBLE OVER THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA. BETTER MOISTURE OVER THE NORTH WILL ADD A SLIGHTLY
GREATER CHANCE FOR SOME LIGHT SHOWERS. SUBSIDENCE/DRY WEATHER FOLLOW
THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.

THE NEXT CONCERN IS WHETHER A WIND ADVISORY IS NEEDED FOR THE
WESTERN PART OF THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON. THE 00Z MET MOS
GAVE AN INDICATION FOR THIS WHILE FWC/MAV WERE WELL UNDER THE
CRITERIA. IF WINDS DO REACH WIND ADVISORY LEVELS IT SHOULD BE A
BRIEF TIME PERIOD FROM 20-24Z. BROKEN CLOUDS MAY HAMPER MIXING
ENOUGH TO KEEP WINDS AT BORDERLINE LEVELS. PREFER TO SEE BETTER
AGREEMENT WITH MODELS. PLAN TO BRIEF DAYSHIFT ON THREAT AND HIT
HARD IN ZONES AND HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

850MB TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY LOWER THROUGH FRIDAY AND THEN
INCREASE ABOUT 4 DEGREES SATURDAY. LEANED TOWARD COOLER GUIDANCE
TODAY DUE TO CLOUDS. FOLLOWED WARMER MET GUIDANCE FOR FRIDAY SINCE
THERE SHOULD BE GOOD INSOLATION. SATURDAYS TEMPERATURES ARE A BLEND
SINCE THE MET GUIDANCE APPEARS TOO WARM. LOW TEMPERATURES RANGE FROM
THE LOWER TO UPPER 20S.

NO CHANGES MADE TO THE EXTENDED.
