What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this tornado 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 tornado warning went out at Apr 6, 2:55 PM CDT, 3 hours 12 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 6, 2:55 PM CDT, 3 hours 12 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
255 PM CDT THU APR 6 2006

.DISCUSSION...
MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS REMAIN SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL THROUGH EARLY
THIS EVENING AND SECONDARILY STRONG WINDS THROUGH THIS EVENING
AND AGAIN FRIDAY.

TONIGHT:
STRONG SHORTWAVE TROF WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHEASTWARD OUT OF THE
TEXAS PANHANDLE ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS THROUGH THIS EVENING WHILE
TAKING ON A NEGATIVE TILT. LATEST RUNS OF THE MODELS HAVE SLOWED
DOWN THE DRYLINE EASTWARD PROGRESSION SOME. THE DRYLINE SHOULD BE
PUSHING OUT OF THE FLINT HILLS THROUGH SOUTHEASTERN KS EARLY THIS
EVENING. MODERATE-STRONG INSTABILITY AND 70 KTS OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR
WILL EXIST IN THE WARM SECTOR SUPPORTING ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER.
SOME LOW-LEVEL BACKING OF WINDS POSSIBLE FROM EASTERN PORTION OF
CENTRAL KS THROUGH SOUTHEAST KS INTO EARLY EVENING, THEREFORE IN
ADDITION TO VERY LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS...A COUPLE OF STRONG
TORNADOES ARE ALSO POSSIBLE. THIS SEVERE CONVECTION SHOULD PUSH
EASTWARD OUT OF SOUTHEAST KS BY AROUND 03Z. IN
ADDITION...INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE NORTH OF HILL CITY WILL TIGHTEN
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA LEADING TO INTENSE
SFC-800 MB MIXING. WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA LIKELY IN MUCH OF AREA
BEHIND DRYLINE THROUGH ABOUT 03Z...SO EXPANDED WIND ADVISORY TIL
03Z. THE LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE NORTHEASTWARD INTO SOUTHEAST
NEBRASKA WHILE OCCLUDING BY LATE TONIGHT.

FRIDAY-FRIDAY NIGHT:
AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LOW WILL DRIFT SOUTHEASTWARD OVER EASTERN KS.
MARGINAL ELEVATED INSTABILITY UNDERNEATH THE MID LEVEL COLD POOL IS
PROGGED ALONG WITH DEFORMATION ZONE PRECIPITATION IN OUR AREA.
THEREFORE RAISED PRECIPITATION PROBABILITIES IN OUR AREA. THE GFS
AND NAM SHOW AN INTENSE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT IN ASSOCIATION
WITH THE UPPER LEVEL STORM IN CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KS...WITH
VERY STEEP LAPSE RATES FROM THE BOUNDARY LAYER THROUGH 800 MB. THIS
MAY RESULT IN WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA IN MUCH OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH
CENTRAL KS DURING FRIDAY WITH WINDS GRADUALLY DIMINISHING FRIDAY
EVENING. WILL HOLD OFF ISSUING ADVISORY IN 2ND PERIOD FOR NOW GIVEN
CURRENT WATCHES AND ADVISORIES ALREADY IN EFFECT. DECREASING
CLOUDS/DIMINISHING NORTH WINDS FRIDAY NIGHT WILL LEAD TO A
CHILLIER NIGHT WITH LOWS FALLING INTO THE 30S.

SAT-SUN:
BENIGN WEATHER EXPECTED AS OUR AREA WILL BE IN BETWEEN WEATHER
SYSTEMS. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVING THROUGH EASTERN KS ON
SATURDAY...WILL BE FOLLOWED WITH LEE TROFFING AND A RETURN TO
SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW ON SUNDAY. THIS WILL LEAD TO MODERATING
TEMPERATURES IN THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEKEND.

MON-THURS:
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONSISTENT IN SHOWING ANOTHER STRONG SHORTWAVE
TROF EJECTING OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS TUESDAY
INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. IN THE ABSENCE OF STRONG FORCING...DRYLINE MAY
STAY CAPPED MONDAY WITH ELEVATED MIXED LAYER ADVECTING OVER KS
REGION. HOWEVER...AS SHORTWAVE TROF COMES OUT MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY EVENING...MID LEVEL COOLING AND STRONG FORCING MAY RESULT IN
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT DEPENDING ON QUALITY OF LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE
RETURN AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE. THEREFORE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS MON
NIGHT THROUGH TUES NIGHT LOOKS REASONABLE IN GRIDS. BEHIND THIS
FEATURE...SHORTWAVE RIDGING PROGGED OVER KANSAS WED-THURS AS AN
UPPER LOW FORMS OFF THE CALIFORNIA COAST PER GFS/ECMWF.
THEREFORE...KEEPING FORECAST DRY WITH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES.
