AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
325 AM MDT TUE APR 24 2007

.DISCUSSION...MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE
WEATHER THIS EVENING AND SNOW MIXED WITH RAIN EARLY WEDNESDAY
MORNING ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA.

THE SURFACE LOW OVER SOUTHEAST COLORADO STALLS OVER SOUTHEAST
COLORADO AS IT DEEPENS IN RESPONSE TO THE DEEPENING UPPER LOW
CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH THE 4-CORNERS REGION AND INTO SOUTHEAST
COLORADO AND SOUTHWEST KANSAS THIS EVENING. WITH THE WARM SECTOR
AHEAD OF THE LOW CURRENTLY ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH A
WARM FRONT AT THE SURFACE THROUGH THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE
FORECAST AREA AND A COLD FRONT ENHANCED BY THUNDERSTORM OUTFLOW
ACROSS THE NORTHWEST PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA...EXPECT PLENTY
OF MOISTURE TO CONTINUE TO ADVECT INTO MAINLY THE EASTERN SECTIONS
OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH PLENTY OF SHEAR AND MESOSCALE LIFT IN
THE VICINITIES OF THE SURFACE BOUNDARIES AND SYNOPTIC LIFT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW LIFTING ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS. THIS WILL
ALL LEAD TO ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM PRODUCTION LATER TODAY AND
THIS EVENING ACROSS THE TRI-STATE REGION WITH SOME STORMS EXPECTED
TO BECOME SEVERE.

WITH STRONG NORTHERLY FLOW BEHIND THE EXITING SURFACE LOW AND
TEMPERATURES DIPPING INTO THE MID 30S ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTIONS
OF THE FORECAST AREA...IT WILL BE POSSIBLE TO SEE SOME SNOW MIXING
IN WITH THE RAIN SHOWERS LATE TUESDAY NIGHT/EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING.

THE NEW TREND HAS BEEN TO COOL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE LATTER
PART OF THE WEEK. THIS SEEMS REASONABLE GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF
RAINFALL AND CLOUD COVER EXPECTED WITH THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
THAT WILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE REGION ALONG WITH ANOTHER SHORT
WAVE TROUGH EXPECTED LATE THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. THE GFS IS
CURRENTLY MUCH STRONGER WITH THIS NEXT SHORT WAVE TROUGH THAN THE
NAM. WILL NOT PUT ANY PRECIPITATION IN ON THURSDAY NIGHT OR FRIDAY
GIVEN THE POOR AGREEMENT BETWEEN MODELS AND THE NEW MORE MOIST
TREND LATE IN THE WEEK THAT DOES NOT AGREE WITH PRIOR TRENDS...BUT
HAVE TRENDED SLIGHTLY THAT WAY.

THE WEEKEND AND BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEKS ARE STILL LOOKING DRY AND
WARMER AS AN UPPER RIDGE AMPLIFIES OVER THE WESTERN U.S. AND MOVES
OVER THE CENTRAL U.S.
