Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

Area forecast discussion, May 5, 3:36 PM CDT, 7 hours 10 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.
