AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
423 AM MST WED NOV 5 2008

.DISCUSSION...
325 AM MST WED NOV 5 2008

FORECAST CHALLENGES REVOLVE AROUND THE STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT THAT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE TRI-STATE
REGION DURING THE NEXT TWO DAYS.

THE PRE-FRONTAL SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDING FROM CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA
TO EASTERN NEW MEXICO IS DEEPENING AS THE UPPER TROUGH IS MOVING
THROUGH THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGION. AS THE SURFACE TROUGH AND FRONT
CONTINUE TO DEEPEN AND MOVE EAST ACROSS THE REGION...EXPECT WINDS
TO INCREASE AND TURN WEST AND THEN NORTHWEST DURING THE DAY. WIND
SPEEDS ARE EXPECTED TO STAY BELOW WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA TODAY AND
TONIGHT...BUT WILL WARRANT MONITORING. EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO
BEGIN THIS MORNING AS THE FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE TRI-STATE REGION
AND AN UPPER VORTICITY MAX LIFTS NORTHEAST ACROSS THE NORTHWEST
SECTION OF THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON. PRECIPITATION
SHOULD STAY LIQUID DURING THE DAY AS TEMPERATURES ARE CURRENTLY
ABOVE FREEZING AND ARE EXPECTED TO STAY ABOVE FREEZING THROUGH THE
DAY.

THE AREA OF THE HIGHEST PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION SHIFTS TO THE
NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
HOURS AS A VORTICITY LOBE ROTATES AROUND THE UPPER LOW CENTER IN
NEBRASKA PROVIDING SOME POST FRONTAL LIFT ACROSS THE NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. WITH THE COLD AIR ADVECTION AND THE
LOWER PORTIONS OF THE COLUMN REMAINING NEARLY SATURATED...EXPECT A
TRANSITION FROM LIGHT RAIN TO LIGHT SNOW OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN IN
COLORADO AND POSSIBLY THE EXTREME NORTHWEST CORNER OF KS AND
EXTREME SOUTHWEST CORNER OF NEBRASKA. HAVE KEPT THIS PRETTY SHORT
LIVED WITH MINIMAL ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED DUE TO WARM SOIL TEMPERATURES.

BY 12Z THURSDAY THE LOWER LAYERS DRY OUT SIGNIFICANTLY...BRINGING
AN END TO THE PRECIPITATION...BUT LEAVING THE DOOR OPEN TO THE
STRONG WINDS EXPECTED DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY AS THE STRONGEST
SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT MOVES ACROSS MAINLY THE NORTHERN PORTION
OF THE FORECAST AREA BETWEEN EARLY THURSDAY MORNING AND EARLY
THURSDAY AFTERNOON. THE GRADIENT IS EXPECTED TO RELAX DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS AS THE LOW PRESSURE CENTER CONTINUES TO MOVE
FURTHER AWAY FROM THE FORECAST AREA. THE GENERAL CONSENSUS OF THE
FORECAST OFFICES ACROSS THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS IS THAT A WIND
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED ACROSS THE PORTIONS OF THE TRI-STATE
REGION DURING THE DAY. HAVE HELD OFF ON THIS SINCE IT FALLS IN THE
THIRD PERIOD. HIGHLIGHTS WILL LIKELY BE ISSUED THIS MORNING TO
COVER THE WIND ON THURSDAY.

NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WITH A SHORT WAVE RIDGE DURING THE BEGINNING
OF THE WEEKEND WILL FOLLOW THIS SYSTEM. THEREFORE EXPECT THE
SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY TO WARM BACK TO
SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL ON SATURDAY WITH DRY CONDITIONS THROUGH THE
LATER PORTION OF THE WORK WEEK AND INTO THE BEGINNING OF THE
WEEKEND.

LOCKHART

.AVIATION...
423 AM MST WED NOV 5 2008

STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH KGLD AND KMCK BY 15Z. SURFACE
WINDS WILL VEER TO THE NORTHWEST AND INCREASE TO 20-30KTS WITH
HIGHER GUSTS. STRONG SURFACE WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY.
PRECIPITATION WILL LAG BEHIND THE FRONT BY SEVERAL HOURS...BUT BY
AFTERNOON EXPECT LOWERING CIGS WITH SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS. MAY SEE
A RAIN/SNOW MIX LATER TONIGHT AS COLDER AIR WORKS IN BEHIND THE
SYSTEM...BUT NO SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS.
