AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
1030 PM CDT WED JUN 15 2005

.UPDATE...
FORECAST HIGHLIGHT: SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH DESTRUCTIVE WINDS TO
RAKE MOST OF SOUTH-CENTRAL KS TONIGHT.

TONIGHT:
ONLY CHANGES TO INHERITED FORECAST WERE TO FINE-TUNE POPS, WEATHER
DESCRIPTORS & QPF, PRIMARILY ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL KS WHERE DANGEROUS
LINE OF SEVERE TSRA IS SURGING SE 45MPH. UPDATED ZONES HAVE BEEN
ISSUED.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 314 PM CDT WED JUN 15 2005/

.DISCUSSION...
MAIN CONCERNS ARE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FOR TONIGHT ON INTO FRIDAY.

TONIGHT:
LOOKS AS THOUGH CONDITIONS ARE SETTING UP FOR A MCS TO DEVELOP
SOMEWHERE IN WESTERN KANSAS THEN MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
TONIGHT. THIS AFTERNOON DEWPOINTS WERE IN THE 60S THROUGH WESTERN
KANSAS AND THE AIR MASS IS VERY UNSTABLE THROUGH THAT AREA. SPC HAS
MUCH OF THE HIGH PLAINS OUTLOOKED FOR SEVERE WEATHER. ONCE
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP, MODELS HAVE BEEN FAIRLY CONSISTENT IN
DEVELOPING AN MCS IN WESTERN KANSAS, THEN MOVE IT ACROSS OUR
FORECAST AREA TONIGHT AND INTO THURSDAY. THE MAIN CONCERN WITH THESE
STORMS WILL BE HEAVY RAIN AND WILL USE THAT WORDING IN THE FORECAST.
DO NOT ANTICIPATE ISSUING A FLOOD WATCH AT THIS POINT IN TIME, BUT
WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED. THE STORMS WILL ALSO NEED TO BE WATCHED
FOR THE POTENTIAL OF SOME LARGE HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS TONIGHT.

THURSDAY:
THE MCS SHOULD BE INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS BY MORNING, THEN MOVE INTO
ARKANSAS DURING THE DAY. KEPT THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE
LIKELY CATEGORY FOR SOUTHEAST KANSAS DURING THE MORNING HOURS.
ELSEWHERE THUNDERSTORMS POPS IN THE CHANCE CATEGORY. MAIN REASON FOR
THIS IS THAT OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL LIKELY COME OFF THE MCS. WITH
THE AIR MASS REMAINING UNSTABLE, THESE BOUNDARIES WILL BE THE FOCUS
FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. MAINLY SOUTHEAST KANSAS, SOME OF THESE
STORMS COULD PRODUCE LARGE HAIL AND WINDS. CLOUD COVER SHOULD KEEP
HIGH TEMPERATURES DOWN JUST A BIT, WITH HIGHS IN THE 80 TO 85 DEGREE
RANGE.

THURSDAY NIGHT:
WITH THE AIR MASS REMAINING UNSTABLE, WITH AFTERNOON HEATING, SHOULD
ONCE AGAIN SEE THUNDERSTORMS FIRE OFF IN THE HIGH PLAINS THEN
TRACK ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS DURING THE NIGHT-TIME
HOURS. RIGHT NOW AM KEEPING THE POPS IN THE CHANCE CATEGORY, BUT
LATER FORECASTS MAY NEED TO BUMP THIS UP AND CONSIDER FLOOD WATCH
HEADLINES, ESPECIALLY IF WE GET THE HEAVY RAIN TONIGHT.

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY:
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES SHOULD CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY MORNING THEN FINALLY
COME TO AN END AS THE H5 RIDGE BEGINS BUILDING OVER THE SOUTHERN AND
CENTRAL PLANS. HIGH TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL BE MILD WITH HIGHS
ONLY IN THE 80-85 DEGREE RANGE. FRIDAY EVENING AND INTO SATURDAY,
SURFACE WINDS WILL BECOME MORE SOUTHERLY AND INCREASE INTO THE 10 TO
20 MPH RANGE. THE SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL AIDE IN WARMING THE LOWER
ATMOSPHERE AND BY FRIDAY EVENING 700 MB TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE IN
THE +10-12 DEGREE RANGE WHICH WILL PROVIDE A PRETTY GOOD CAP.

SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY:
SUMMER TEMPERATURES AND DRY CONDITIONS LOOK TO BE ON TAP FOR MOST OF
NEXT WEEK. H5 RIDGE WILL BE SETTING UP AND EXTENDING FROM THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. AT THE SURFACE, WILL SEE LEE
TROFFING ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS WHICH WILL GIVE GOOD SOUTHERLY FLOW
THROUGH OUR FORECAST AREA. HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR NEXT WEEK SHOULD BE
IN THE LOW TO MID 90S. THIS ALONG WITH THE SOUTH WINDS SHOULD
DEFINITELY HELP IN GETTING FIELDS DRIED OUT.
