AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
559 AM CDT FRI MAY 23 2008
.UPDATE...REFRESHING GRIDS FOR MORE WIDESPREAD RAINFALL THIS MORNING
AND TO PUSH UP THE STARTING TIME OF THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO THIS
MORNING THANKS TO THE RAIN. STILL EXPECT A BREAK IN THE EARLY
AFTERNOON BUT FLOODING MAY BE MORE OF A PROBLEM EARLIER TODAY THAN
PREVIOUSLY EXPECTED.
&&
.AVIATION...12Z TAF. WILL SEE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
EARLY TODAY WITH MVFR VSBYS/CIGS COMMON PLACE. LIKELY TO SEE A
BREAK IN IN PRECIPITATION THIS AFTERNOON...BUT MVFR TO OCCASIONAL
IFR CIGS LOOK LIKELY THROUGH THIS EVENING. THUNDERSTORMS WILL
RETURN TO THE AREA AGAIN TONIGHT. STRONG EAST WINDS WILL GUST
OVER 20KTS TODAY AND GRADUALLY TURN SOUTHEAST TONIGHT.
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 518 AM CDT FRI MAY 23 2008/
DISCUSSION...ONLY A SHORT OF AMOUNT OF TIME FOR DISCUSSION.
REFERENCE THE HYDROLOGY SECTION FOR ANY WATER ISSUES.
LOW LEVEL JET AND WARM ADVECTION TEAMING UP FOR SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING ACROSS THE CWFA. WOULD EXPECTED THIS
TREND TO CONTINUE THROUGH MID MORNING...BEFORE SOME LET UP IN
COVERAGE. WOULD GENERALLY ANTICIPATE NON SEVERE STORMS THIS
MORNING...ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE ONE IS CERTAINLY
POSSIBLE.
REALLY...TODAY LOOKS LIKE A REPEAT OF YESTERDAY AND THE FORECAST
GENERALLY REFLECTS THAT THINKING. HIGH PRECIPITATION CHANCES
THROUGH TONIGHT WITH THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER...ESPECIALLY
OVER THE WESTERN/SOUTHERN CWFA PER SPC OUTLOOKS. ONE CAVEAT
WHICH MAY COME INTO PLAY IS THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE
SEEMS TO GYRATE FURTHER WEST. THAT COULD KEEP THE FAVORED SEVERE
WEATHER AREA FURTHER WEST THAN YESTERDAY.
FEW CHANGES MADE TO THE REST OF THE FORECAST. GOTTA GO.
HYDROLOGY...WE HAVE SEEN A LOT OF HYDROLOGY ISSUES ACROSS ABOUT 4
TO 5 COUNTIES...INCLUDING ROOKS...PHILLIPS...SMITH...FRANKLIN...AND
WEBSTER. THE BOW CREEK NORTH OF STOCKTON AND THE NORTH FORK OF THE
SOLOMON RIVER AT GLADE BOTH QUICKLY ROSE ABOVE FLOOD STATE. THE
THOMPSON CREEK AT RIVER IS RUNNING NEAR FLOOD STAGE...AND THE GAGE
APPEARS TO BE MALFUNCTIONING. IF AUTOMATIC GAGES IN THIS AREA ARE
CORRECT...3 TO 3.5 INCHES OF RAIN FELL FROM HARLAN LAKE EAST TO
RIVERTON...AND OVER 4 INCHES AT GLADE AND MUCH OF EASTERN PHILLIPS
COUNTY. WITH THE FORECAST OF THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY TONIGHT...AND
EVEN THE ONGOING WEATHER...ITS HARD NOT TO THINK FLOODING WILL
BE WORSENED. HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR AREAS OF THE
CWFA ALONG THE KANSAS/NEBRASKA BORDER FOR LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND TONIGHT. INCLUDED DAWSON AND GOSPER COUNTIES...BUT THE MAIN
RISK AREAS WOULD BE THE FAR WESTERN FRINGES OF THOSE COUNTIES
WHERE THE HEAVIEST RAIN FELL. THIS WATCH MIGHT BE A BIT OF
OVERKILL AREAL COVERAGE WISE...WILL WILL FAULT OF THE SIDE
OF SAFE RATHER THAN SORRY.
