NWS Hastings, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Nov 27, 11:20 AM CST, 3 hours 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Nov 27, 11:20 AM CST, 3 hours 29 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE 1120 AM CST TUE NOV 27 2007 .AVIATION...THE PRIMARY ISSUE FOR THE 18Z TAF WILL BE WINDS. SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON. HAVE GONE WITH GUSTS TO 25KTS...BUT THEN DIMINISH SPEEDS TO SOME DEGREE THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE AREA LATER TONIGHT WHICH WILL BRING A CHANGE TO NORTHWEST LY WINDS. HAVE SHOWN THE FRONTAL PASSAGE TOWARDS 11Z...BUT WINDS SHOULD TURN MORE WESTERLY A FEW HOURS PRIOR TO THAT. WIND SPEEDS WILL INCREASE INITIALLY WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...AND THEN THEY MAY DIMINISH FOR A PERIOD IN THE MORNING BEFORE INCREASING AGAIN BY LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 406 AM CST TUE NOV 27 2007/ DISCUSSION...MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS ARE WINDS AND TEMPERATURES...AS MOISTURE CONTINUES TO LOOK LACKING FOR PRECIPITATION UNTIL THE WEEKEND. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY EARLY THIS MORNING SHOWS THE NEXT IN A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES MOVING THROUGH THE PAC NW. HIGH CLOUDS AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE ARE SPILLING OVER THE ROCKIES AND APPROACHING THE CWA FROM THE NORTHWEST. THIS BATCH OF CIRRUS WILL SPREAD OVER THE AREA THIS MORNING...WITH THE GREATER COVERAGE EXPECTED ACROSS NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA BEFORE DECREASING DURING THE AFTERNOON. LATEST OBJECTIVE SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A COLD FRONT HAS MADE ITS WAY INTO NORTHEAST AND NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...AND THIS FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO BACKDOOR ITS WAY INTO THE NORTHERN CWA THIS MORNING. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN IN THE LEE OF THE ROCKIES TODAY AS THE FLOW ALOFT TURNS WESTERLY AND EVENTUALLY SOUTHWESTERLY AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING WAVE. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL INCREASE IN BETWEEN THIS DEEPENING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE TO THE WEST AND A SURFACE HIGH TO THE SOUTHEAST...RESULTING IN INCREASING SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS BY LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON...WHICH WILL DRIVE THE BACKDOOR FRONT BACK NORTH. WAA AND MORE SUNSHINE BY AFTERNOON WILL PUSH HIGH TEMPS INTO THE 50S. IT WILL BE WINDY THIS AFTERNOON...BUT DO NOT THINK WE/LL HIT ADVISORY CRITERIA. IT LOOKS CLOSEST ACROSS OUR FAR SOUTHWEST KS COUNTIES...BUT STILL MARGINAL EVEN HERE. 850 MB WINDS INCREASE TO AROUND 45 KTS THIS AFTERNOON BUT WINDS ARE NOT VERY WELL ALIGNED WITH CONSIDERABLE VEERING AT LOW LEVELS. ANOTHER LIMITING FACTOR IS THAT MODELS ARE SHOWING MIXING TO ONLY ABOUT 900 MB. THUS WILL HOLD OFF ON AN ADVISORY...ALTHOUGH WE MAY BRIEFLY APPROACH CRITERIA IN THE FAR SOUTHWEST THIS AFTERNOON. THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE PUSHES A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT. AS THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL FORCING MOVES THROUGH LATE TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...LOW LEVELS REMAIN VERY DRY WHICH LOOKS TO PROHIBIT ANY PRECIP FROM FALLING. THE MAIN STORY ON WEDNESDAY WILL REMAIN THE WIND...ALTHOUGH NOW OUT OF THE NORTHWEST BEHIND THE FRONT. WINDS ARE MUCH BETTER ALIGNED ON WEDNESDAY AND MIXING IS MUCH DEEPER AS WELL...WITH FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOWING MIXING TO 800 MB OR EVEN A LITTLE HIGHER. WE/LL LIKELY END UP NEEDING A WIND ADVISORY FOR AT LEAST AREAS ALONG AND NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE DURING THE AFTERNOON. TEMPS WILL COOL OFF IN THE CAA BEHIND THE FRONT...BUT A DOWNSLOPE COMPONENT WITH THE NORTHWEST WINDS WILL COUNTER THIS TO SOME DEGREE AND HIGHS STILL LOOK TO REMAIN ABOVE AVERAGE. HOWEVER...TEMPS WILL DROP OFF INTO THE TEENS WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IN PLACE AND CLEARING SKIES. AFTER A COLD START TO THE DAY...SOUTHERLY WINDS RETURN ON THURSDAY AS THE SURFACE HIGH SHIFTS EAST AND THE LEE TROUGH DEEPENS IN RESPONSE TO AN INCREASINGLY ZONAL FLOW ALOFT. HOWEVER...THE RESULTING WAA WILL HAVE TO WORK ON A PRETTY COLD AIRMASS TO START THE DAY AND EXPECT TEMPS TO AGAIN TOP OUT IN THE 40S. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE AND COLD FRONT THEN PUSH THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...BUT AGAIN MOISTURE LOOKS LACKING FOR ANY LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES THIS FAR SOUTH. MADE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE EXTENDED PERIODS WITH THIS PACKAGE WITH A CHANCE FOR SNOW STILL ON TRACK FOR THE WEEKEND. WILL HAVE BETTER GULF MOISTURE IN PLACE THIS WEEKEND FOR ENERGY EJECTING OUT OF WESTERN CONUS TROUGH TO WORK WITH. DOESN/T LOOK LIKE A MAJOR EVENT FOR THE CWA AT THIS POINT GIVEN THE PROGRESSIVE NATURE OF THE SYSTEM. HOWEVER WILL NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON PRECIP TYPE ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTH AS MODELS SHOW SOME POTENTIAL OF A WARM LAYER DEVELOPING ALOFT BY SATURDAY NIGHT. && .GID WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
