AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
617 PM CST SUN DEC 14 2008

.AVIATION...00Z TAF. IT APPEARS LINGERING FLURRIES WILL BE FOUND
IN THE KGRI AREA THIS EVENING AND PRODUCE AN OCCASIONAL MVFR CIG
OR VSBY...BUT THE MAIN LIFT WITH THIS SYSTEM IS PULLING NORTHEAST
OF THE AREA. CLEARING SKIES ALREADY IN WESTERN NEBRASKA...AND THAT
TREND SHOULD RESULT IN VFR CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH THE
DAY MONDAY. NORTHWEST WINDS WILL BE STRONG...NEAR 20KTS FOR THE
FIRST 6 HOURS OR SO....BEFORE DROPPING OFF SOME GRADUALLY DURING
THE DAY MONDAY.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 303 PM CST SUN DEC 14 2008/

SHORT TERM...FOR TONIGHT THROUGH 12Z TUESDAY.

A VERY COLD WEATHER PATTERN IS ALREADY IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION
THIS AFTERNOON AS A STRONG ARCTIC COLD FRONT SURGING SOUTH ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO MID MS RIVER VALLEY...HAS LEFT BEHIND A VERY
COLD AIRMASS.  REGIONAL SURFACE OBS SHOW TEMPERATURES OF 5 BELOW TO
10 ABOVE ZERO ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA AND ALONG WITH SUSTAINED
NORTHWEST WINDS OF 25 TO 30 MPH...IS PRODUCING WIND CHILL VALUES OF
ROUGHLY 15 TO 25 BELOW ZERO.  ALTHOUGH WINDS HAVE BEEN STRONG UP TO
THIS POINT...THE PRESSURE GRADIENT IS BEGINNING TO RELAX ACROSS THE
AREA AND WINDS HAVE EASED BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA.  FOR THIS
REASON...THE WIND ADVISORY HAS BEEN CANCELLED AT 21Z.

IN ADDITION...THE EXIT REGION OF A 140KT UPPER JET IS INTERACTING
WITH DEEP COLD AIR ADVECTION INTO THE MID LEVELS TO PRODUCE A
DECENT BAND OF FRONTOGENESIS IN THE 800-700MB LAYER. THIS BAND OF
FRONTOGENESIS IS IN THE PROCESS OF SINKING SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND SHOULD BE SOUTH OF THE CWA CLOSER
TO THE LEFT EXIT REGION BY 00Z.  HOWEVER...WITH THE DENDRITIC LAYER
REMAINING AT THE SURFACE AND HENCE WITHIN THE STRATUS DECK...SOME
SCATTERED SNOW FLURRIES LOOK TO REMAIN POSSIBLE THROUGH THE
EVENING.  SUBSIDENCE WILL THEN TAKE OVER THE AREA LATE THIS EVENING
TO OVERNIGHT WITH CLOUD COVER EXPECTED TO ERODE QUICKLY.  THIS WILL
SET THE STAGE FOR A VERY COLD NIGHT AS LOW TEMPERATURES OF ZERO TO
10 BELOW LOOK VERY LIKELY. THIS ALONG WITH WINDS REMAINING IN THE 15
TO 25 KNOT RANGE FOR MOST OF THE NIGHT WILL KEEP WIND CHILL VALUES
BETWEEN 20 TO 30 BELOW ZERO ACROSS MOST OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL
NEBRASKA WHILE AROUND 15 BELOW ZERO LOOKS LIKELY ACROSS NORTH
CENTRAL KANSAS.  BASED ON THIS SETUP...WILL KEEP THE WIND CHILL
ADVISORY GOING FOR CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA THROUGH NOON
ON MONDAY.

AFTER A RELATIVELY QUIET MONDAY...ATTENTION THEN TURNS TOWARD MONDAY
NIGHT AS A 170KT UPPER JET STREAK SLIPS INTO THE REGION.  THE
INDIRECT CIRCULATION ON THIS JET STREAK WILL HELP TO INDUCE A BAND
OF FRONTOGENESIS IN THE 800-700MB LAYER THAT WILL SHIFT FROM
SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA LATE MONDAY NIGHT.
THIS FORCING ALONG WITH MODEST ISENTROPIC LIFT IN THE 285K THETA
LAYER WILL BRING SOME LIGHT PRECIPITATION TO THE FORECAST AREA AFTER
MIDNIGHT.  ALTHOUGH PRECIP AMOUNTS WILL LIKELY STAY AT A TENTH OF AN
INCH OR LESS...TEMPERATURES IN THE SINGLE DIGITS SHOULD SUPPORT VERY
HIGH SNOW TO LIQUID SNOW RATIOS OF 30 TO 1.  WILL AIM FOR SNOW
AMOUNT OF 2 TO 3 INCHES ACROSS MOST OF THE CWA BY 12Z TUESDAY.

LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.  AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN SETS
UP THROUGH THE WORKWEEK.  ON TUESDAY THE PATTERN ALOFT FEATURES
TROUGHS IN SASKATCHEWAN...AND FARTHER SOUTH AND WEST INTO
CALIFORNIA...WITH A GENERAL SOUTHWEST FLOW REGIME ACROSS THE CENTRAL
PLAINS.  THE ARCTIC AIRMASS IS STILL ENTRENCHED ACROSS THE CENTRAL
PLAINS WITH H85 TEMPS MAINLY IN THE TEENS BELOW ZERO.  ENERGY
LIFTING OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST CONUS...AIDED BY A 150KT JET STREAK
LIFTING ACROSS NEB...WILL BEGIN TO GENERATE SNOWFALL MONDAY NIGHT
WHICH WILL CONTINUE DURING THE DAY ON TUESDAY.  ISENTROPIC LIFT AS
INDICATED ON THE 295K SURFACE CONTINUES THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS
AND THEN BEGINS TO LIFT NORTH AND EAST DURING THE AFTERNOON.  THE
GFS AND NAM ARE NOT IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT AS TO WHERE THE GREATER
SNOWFALL BAND WILL SET UP WITH THE GFS INDICATING A FARTHER NORTH
POSITION THAN THE NAM.  CONFIDENCE IS HIGH FOR A WIDESPREAD SNOWFALL
EVENT INTO TUESDAY...AND GIVEN THE VERY COLD TEMPERATURES A HIGH
SNOWFALL RATIO WILL EXIST...GENERALLY 25-30 TO 1.  THE HIGH SNOWFALL
RATIOS WILL RESULT IN DECENT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WHICH MAY REACH SNOW
ADVISORY CRITERIA...AND CURRENT STORM TOTAL SNOWFALL RANGES FROM 2
TO 5 INCHES.  THE MAIN SNOW AREA SHOULD DEPART TO THE EAST/NORTHEAST
TUESDAY AFTERNOON...THEN MODELS SUGGEST SOME REDEVELOPMENT TUESDAY
NIGHT IN THE RIGHT REAR QUADRANT OF A 150KT JET STREAK.  THE GFS IS
MORE ROBUST WITH THIS BUT THE EMCWF ALSO INDICATES THE POTENTIAL.
GIVEN THAT WE HAD A DRY FORECAST IN THIS TIME FRAME...HAVE JUST WENT
WITH SOME FLURRIES FOR NOW.

WEDNESDAY DURING THE DAY WILL BE A BREAK IN BETWEEN THE
SYSTEMS...THEN ANOTHER WAVE AND JET STREAK LIFT NORTHEAST WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AND THURSDAY.  WARM AIR ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT KICKS IN AGAIN.
BOTH THE GFS AND THE LATEST ECMWF LIFT THE BAROCLINIC ZONE NORTH
THROUGH KANSAS AND INTO SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA.  IF THIS OCCURS...THE
POTENTIAL FOR MIXED AND FREEZING PRECIPITATION WILL BE POSSIBLE.
HAVE NOT INCLUDED ANY PHASE CHANGE PCPN YET...BUT THIS WILL NEED TO
BE MONITORED.

SNOW CHANCES WIND DOWN THURSDAY NIGHT AND THE FORECAST REMAINS DRY
ON FRIDAY.  DID NOT DEVIATE FROM HPC FOR NEXT WEEKEND...HOWEVER A
DIGGING TROUGH AND ANOTHER SURGE OF ARCTIC AIR LOOK POISED TO ARRIVE
AND WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE MORE LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES ON
SATURDAY.

TEMPERATURES REMAIN VERY COLD THROUGHOUT THE DURATION OF THE
EXTENDED.  ARCTIC AIR...POTENTIAL FOR SNOW AND ACCUMULATIONS...AND
EXPECTED SNOW ON THE GROUND WILL KEEP READINGS QUITE COLD.
ANY SNOW WHICH ACCUMULATES WILL NOT MELT IN THE COLD AIRMASS...AND
WITH THE PROGRESSIVE PATTERN AND INTERMITTENT CHCS FOR
SNOWFALL...SNOW AMOUNTS WILL KEEP TALLYING UP.
