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 Dodge City, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 5, 3:36 PM CDT, 1 hour 46 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 5, 3:36 PM CDT, 1 hour 46 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS 336 PM CDT MON MAY 5 2008 .DISCUSSION... DAYS 1-2... ALL THE INGREDIENTS ARE COMING TOGETHER FOR THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON WEDNESDAY. A DEEP UPPER TROUGH OFF OF BAJA WILL EJECT EAST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES AND SOUTHERN PLAINS THROUGH WEDNESDAY. AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM, RICH GULF MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO FLOW NORTHWARD FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. A DRYLINE WAS SITUATED FROM CENTRAL NM INTO SE CO AND FAR WESTERN KS THIS AFTERNOON. AN OUTFLOW FROM NOCTURNAL STORMS STRETCHED FROM GARDEN CITY TO FAR NORTHERN OKLAHOMA. ALTHOUGH JET STREAK DYNAMICS ARE RATHER WEAK THIS AFTERNOON, SW KS IS STILL UNDERNEATH A BROAD UPPER JET THAT WILL HELP VENTILATE AND MAINTAIN ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP ALONG THE DRYLINE AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. GIVEN THE STRONG SFC HEATING AND COLD MID LEVEL TEMPS, CAPPING WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE. STORMS THAT DEVELOP THIS EVENING WILL LIKELY LINGER MOST OF THE NIGHT AS CONVERGENCE INCREASES ALONG THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE NOCTURNAL LOW LEVEL JET. IN FACT ELEVATED STORMS WERE ONGOING IN CENTRAL KS THIS AFTERNOON. IT IS FAIRLY UNUSUAL FOR ELEVATED CONVECTION TO PERSIST ALL DAY. AFTER A BREAK MID TO LATE TUESDAY MORNING, A DRYLINE WILL HELP INITIATE STORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, ESPECIALLY ALONG AND EAST OF A LINE FROM SCOTT CITY TO LIBERAL. ALSO, TONIGHTS STORMS WILL PROBABLY LEAVE AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS, AND THIS BOUNDARY COULD ALSO SERVE TO INITIATE STORMS. STORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO TUESDAY NIGHT AS A STRONG SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE SW. THIS SYSTEM WILL BE PASSING TO OUR SOUTH ON WEDNESDAY. THE MODELS INDICATE THAT MOISTURE WILL WRAP AROUND THE SYSTEM INTO CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN KANSAS AND POSSIBLY AS FAR WEST AS DODGE CITY. AS THE MID LEVEL COLD COOL ARRIVES, THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP BY MID TO LATE MORNING AND THEN PROGRESS ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS INTO EARLY AFTERNOON. WITH SEVERAL ROUNDS OF STORMS EXPECTED, A FEW PLACES MAY SEE EXCESSIVE RAIN AMOUNTS WHICH COULD CAUSE FLOODING. OF COURSE, AS IS TYPICAL IN SOUTHWEST KANSAS, THERE WILL BE PLACES THAT RECEIVE MUCH LESS RAIN. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE QUITE MILD GIVEN THE HIGH DEWPOINTS. BUT OUTFLOW FROM STORMS COULD STILL COOL TEMPS INTO THE UPPER 50S. MAXES TUESDAY MAY BE SIMILAR TO TODAY. BUT TONIGHTS STORMS AND LEFTOVER MESOSCALE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES COULD KEEP CERTAIN AREAS COOLER THAN OTHERS. TODAY IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THIS. MCS ACTIVITY PERSISTED THROUGH THE DAY IN CENTRAL KS AND THEY STAYED MUCH COOLER. DAYS 3-7... AN UPPER LOW OVER WESTERN OKLAHOMA WILL MOVE RAPIDLY EASTWARD BY THURSDAY MORNING WITH ANY LINGERING WRAP AROUND PRECIP MOVING OUT TOWARD MORNING. SEVERAL SHORTWAVE TROUGHS IN WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT ARE SCHEDULED TO MOVE ACROSS THE REGION WITH THE FIRST ONE ON FRIDAY AND ANOTHER MORE SUBSTANTIAL WAVE ON SATURDAY THEN RIDGING ON MONDAY MORNING. THE FIRST WAVE WILL PUSH A SURFACE LOW NEAR ELKHART TO THE SOUTH OF THE AREA AND INTO OKLAHOMA ON FRIDAY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVING AGAIN NEAR ELKHART TO THE SOUTH OF THE DODGE CITY CWA INTO THE WEEKEND. MUCH OF THE PRECIP WILL STAY MAINLY SOUTH. THERE COULD BE SOME PERIODS OF LOW STRATUS IN THE MORNINGS WITH UPSLOPE FLOW. AS FOR TEMPERATURES THE OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD BE MOSTLY IN THE 40S WITH HIGHS IN THE 60S TO NEAR 70 WITH A WARMING TREND ON MONDAY IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S. .AVIATION... SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL UP TO 2 INCHES AND WINDS TO 70 MPH WILL BE FORMING ALONG AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY NEAR THE GCK AND DDC TAF SITES INTO THE EVENING. WINDS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THIS BOUNDARY ARE SOUTHEASTERLY WHILE TO THE SOUTH THEY ARE SOUTHERLY FROM 15 TO 25KTS. OTHER THUNDERSTORMS MAY STAY JUST NORTH OF THE HAYS AREA. THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME MORE NUMEROUS IN THE EVENING AND ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH 12Z TUESDAY. YOU CAN EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS EXCEPT AROUND THUNDERSTORMS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
