What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 12, 3:50 AM CDT, 9 hours 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 12, 3:50 AM CDT, 9 hours 55 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
350 AM CDT SUN JUN 12 2005

.DISCUSSION...

FORECAST CHALLENGES/CONCERNS WILL BE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS/FLOODING
POTENTIAL TODAY AND TONIGHT. FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT ALL AREAS
UNTIL 7 AM MONDAY MORNING.

ONGOING CONVECTION IS BEING DRIVEN BY LOW-LEVEL WARM/MOIST ADVECTION
UNDERNEATH RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF 70+ KT JET STREAK. COULD SEE
SOME MARGINAL SEVERE HAIL/WIND WITH THIS ACTIVITY, ALONG WITH VERY
HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING. THINKING THAT THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FAIRLY
NUMEROUS THROUGH MID/LATE MORNING, AS MCV MOVES ACROSS THE AREA.
HOWEVER, ACTIVITY MAY REMAIN WIDELY SCATTERED/NUMEROUS THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON, GIVEN STRENGTH OF MID/UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE EXPECTED TO
APPROACH THE AREA, AS WELL AS LINGERING RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF JET
STREAK.

HOWEVER, AM THINKING THE MAIN SHOW WILL ARRIVE LATE THIS AFTERNOON,
AND EXTEND THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. INTENSE SHORTWAVE IS
EXPECTED TO GO NEGATIVELY TILTED BY THIS AFTERNOON, RESULTING IN
GOOD/DEEP DYNAMIC LIFT OVERSPREADING THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS.
MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND PRECIPITATION COULD LINGER MUCH OF THE DAY,
WHICH WOULD HAMPER DESTABILIZATION. REGARDLESS, STRENGTH OF
MID/UPPER FORCING SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO FIRE WIDELY SCATTERED
STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS BY MID/LATE AFTERNOON GENERALLY WEST OF
I-135. DAMAGING WINDS/LARGE HAIL WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREATS.
HOWEVER, GIVEN STRENGTH OF FORCING, ACTIVITY MAY HAVE A TENDENCY TO
GO LINEAR, WHICH WOULD INCREASE DAMAGING WIND THREAT.

AS SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE TROUGH PROGRESS ACROSS THE AREA
TONIGHT, THINKING THAT WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS ACTIVITY WILL
PROGRESS EAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. SEVERE THREAT WILL
BE POSSIBLE MAINLY BEFORE MIDNIGHT IN THE FORM OF DAMAGING WINDS AND
MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. OF GREATEST CONCERN WILL LIKELY BE
CONTINUED FLOODING CONCERNS, AS MORE VERY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL LIKELY
OCCUR.

THUNDERSTORMS COULD LINGER OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST
AREA THROUGH THE DAY ON MONDAY, AS SURFACE FRONT SLOWS DOWN IN
RESPONSE TO BEST MID/UPPER FORCING MOVING NORTH OF THE AREA. COULD
VERY WELL SEE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY LINGER ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEAST
KANSAS THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT AND EARLY TUESDAY. HOWEVER, WOULDNT BE
SURPRISED IF LATER SHIFTS REMOVE POPS FOR TUESDAY, AS GFS IS THE
ONLY MODEL THAT SUPPORTS THE SUPER SLOW SCENARIO.

EXPECTING *MUCH* QUIETER (DRY) WEATHER FROM EARLY/MID WEEK AND
BEYOND, AS CENTRAL PLAINS SHOULD BE INFLUENCED BY MID/UPPER RIDGING.
LARGE BLOCKING PATTERN IS STILL EXPECTED TO SETUP, WITH TROUGHS OVER
THE WESTERN AND EASTERN COASTS. TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN IN THE
LOW-MID 80S MOST OF THE WEEK, AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE
EASTERN CONUS WILL INFLUENCE THE AREA, RESULTING IN A NORTH/EAST
COMPONENT TO LOW-LEVEL FLOW. THINKING TEMPERATURES SHOULD START
WARMING UP BY NEXT WEEKEND, AS WESTERN TROUGH APPROACHES AND
INCREASES LOW-LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. ONCE
AGAIN, DID NOT MAKE MANY CHANGES TO EXTENDED FORECAST, AS IT WAS IN
FAIRLY GOOD SHAPE.
