.DISCUSSION...
123 PM MDT MON JUN 23 2008

MID/UPPER RIDGE OVER THE ROCKIES IS MUCH FLATTER WHEN COMPARED TO 24
HOURS EARLIER WITH DIFFUSE STATIONARY FRONT REMAINING ACROSS WESTERN
KANSAS.

EXTENT OF DEEP MOIST CONVECTION WILL BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN THROUGH
THE FIRST PERIOD. CAPPING CONCERNS WILL KEEP POPS IN THE MID
RANGE AS HIGH-BASED CONVECTION TRANSLATES EAST INTO THE TRI-STATE
AREA THIS EVENING. INCREASING 30-40 KT LLJ MAY BE SUFFICIENT TO
ALLOW STORMS TO CONTINUE EASTWARD IMPACTING THE EASTERN ZONES
THROUGH AT LEAST MIDNIGHT. DUE TO STRENGTH OF THE CAP...DEEP MOIST
CONVECTION DEVELOPING NEAR THE WARM FRONTAL SEGMENT IS EXPECTED TO
REMAIN ISOLATED LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING HOURS.

TUE-THU...A SUBTLE WARMING TREND IS ANTICIPATED THROUGH THE PERIOD.
DIFFICULT TO RULE OUT ISOLATED AFTERNOON/EVENING THUNDERSTORMS AS
CINH DIMINISHES DURING MID/LATE AFTERNOON AND WILL KEEP SOME LOW
AFTERNOON-EVENING POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD ACROSS THE AREA. THE MOST
LIKELY SCENARIO WOULD BE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING OUT WEST
DRIFTING SLOWLY EAST THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. WARMING H7
TEMPERATURES BY WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY SHOULD HELP INHIBIT DEEP MOIST
CONVECTION.

FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...REASONABLE AGREEMENT BETWEEN GFS/ECMWF WITH
THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN EVOLVING OVER MUCH OF THE CONUS THROUGH THE
EXTENDED PERIODS. A FROPA IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS
ON FRIDAY AND WILL KEEP SOME LOW POPS THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING. THE
PRIMARY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GFS/ECMWF APPEARS TO BE HANDLING OF
H5 TROUGH TRANSLATING OVER THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AREA ON
SATURDAY. THE GFS IS LESS PROGRESSIVE WHEN COMPARED TO THE
ECMWF LENDING SUPPORT FOR A SLOWER TRANSITION TO RISING
HEIGHTS/THICKNESS AND LESS HEAT OVER THE WEEKEND FOR THE TRI-STATE
AREA. WILL LEAN MORE TOWARDS THE PROGRESSIVE SOLUTION OF THE ECMWF
WHICH THE GFS ENSEMBLE WOULD SUPPORT AND ADJUST TEMPERATURES UP
BEGINNING SATURDAY WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES APPROACHING 100 ACROSS THE
AREA BY MONDAY.
