What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Mar 31, 9:08 AM CDT, 1 hour 28 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 31, 9:08 AM CDT, 1 hour 28 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
908 AM CDT MON MAR 31 2008

.UPDATE...
A COLD FRONT CONTINUES PUSHING THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. AT
14Z...IT WAS NEAR A JUNCTION CITY TO NEWTON TO ANTHONY LINE.
PROFILER DATA SHOWING A HODOGRAPH THAT IS MORE CHARACTERISTIC OF A
LINEAR FORCED CONVECTIVE MODE RIGHT ALONG THE FRONT. THAT SAID...OUT
AHEAD OF THE FRONT BY 50+ MILES THE SHEAR HAS INCREASED
/SIGNIFICANTLY AS SHOWN BY THE KSGF WSR-88D VWP DATA/. AS
SUCH...THE HIGHEST CONFIDENCE FOR A TORNADO THREAT WOULD BE IN THE
EXTREME EASTERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA IN SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

HAVE UPDATED THE GRIDS TO REFLECT THE LOCATION AND EXPECTED
MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

UPDATE...

AVIATION...
12Z TAF ISSUANCE: KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU
MANY CONCERNS THIS MORNING:
1) NUMEROUS TSRA...POSSIBLY SEVERE WITH GOLFBALL-SIZED HAIL AND 50
TO 60 MPH WINDS...TO CONTINUE TO MOVE NE35KTS ACROSS KCNU TERMINAL
THIS MORNING. MORE TSRA...POSSIBLY SEVERE...ARE LIKELY FROM MIDDAY
THRU LATE AFTERNOON AS A STRONG COLD FRONT SURGES SE ACROSS SE KS.
THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH KCNU 20Z-22Z...DURING THIS PERIOD
S/SE WINDS 15-20KTS WILL SHIFT TO THE NW AT VERY SIMILAR SPEEDS.
2) IFR/LIFR CEILINGS WILL PLAGUE KRSL...KSLN & KHUT THRU 17Z...AT
WHICH TIME CEILINGS WILL IMPROVE INTO MVFR CATEGORY WITH VFR
CEILINGS EXPECTED 20Z. THRU 14Z-15Z...IFR/LIFR VSBYS ARE LIKELY IN
THE WAKE OF COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE...WITH VSBYS RAPIDLY IMPROVING
THEREAFTER.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 330 AM CDT MON MAR 31 2008/

DISCUSSION...

TODAY:

MAIN FOCUS IS ON THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW
INCREASING CAPES ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL KS TOWARDS DAYBREAK...WITH
POTENTIAL FOR STORMS TO BECOME INCREASINGLY SURFACE BASED. 1200
UTC GLOBAL FORECAST SYSTEM MODEL BUFR SOUNDING AT ICT HAS ABOUT
3200 J/KG CONVECTIVE AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY WITH MEAN PARCEL
AND NO CONVECTIVE INHIBITION. BRISK LOW LEVEL JET ADDED FAIRLY
IMPRESSIVE LOW LEVEL CURVE TO HODOGRAPH...ALTHOUGH 0-3KM
CONVECTIVE AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY IS LESS THAN OPTIMAL.
EXPECT INCREASE IN INTENSITY AND COVERAGE THROUGH DAYBREAK. GIVEN
RATHER SPARCE CONVECTIVE INHIBITION...DOUBT THAT STORMS WILL
COMPLETELY STOP EVEN AFTER LOW LEVEL JET SUBSIDES. POTENTIAL FOR
SURFACE BASED STORMS LATE MORNING EAST OF I-35 AND SHIFTING INTO
SOUTHEAST KS DURING THE AFTERNOON. BELIEVE TORNADO THREAT WILL
INCREASE LATE MORNING ALONG/AHEAD OF FRONT. RAPID DRYING IN THE
WAKE OF THE FRONT WILL ALLOW SOME SUNSHINE AND RECOVERY TO
TEMPERATURES.

TONIGHT-TUE:

SPED UP TIMING OF BACK EDGE OF PRECIPITATION JUST A BIT.
PRECIPITATION CHANCES SHOULD END QUICKLY AFTER 0000 UTC IN EXTREME
SOUTHEAST KS. RATHER CHILLY NIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL KS WITH WINDS
DECREASING. RELATIVELY QUITE OTHERWISE.

WED-THU:

RATHER TRICKY FORECAST WITH A RELATIVELY WIDE RANGE OF SOLUTIONS TO
CHOOSE FROM. THERE HAS BEEN CONSIDERABLE VARIABILITY IN RUN TO RUN
SOLUTIONS...ALTHOUGH WITH RESPECT TO MOISTURE AND 850MB
TEMPERATURES...EUROPEAN CENTRE FOR MEDIUM RANGE WEATHER FORECASTS
MODEL HAS BEEN A BIT MORE CONSISTENT OVER THE LAST SEVERAL RUNS. DO
NOT BELIEVE THE RAPID INFLUX OF MOISTURE PROGNOSTICATED BY GLOBAL
FORECAST SYSTEM MODEL...BELIEVE IS HAS MOISTENED THE 850MB LAYER
DUE TO THE UPSLOPE COMPONENT WELL NORTH OF TRUE 850MB FRONT. GIVEN
THAT THE 850MB FLOW ONLY TURNS TO THE SOUTH AROUND 1200 UTC...FIND
IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SUBSTANTIAL MOISTURE WILL BE THAT FAR INTO
THE FORECAST AREA BY 0000 UTC THU. HAVE RELUCTANTLY BUMPED UP
PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION IMMEDIATELY ALONG OK BORDER FOR
CONSISTENCY. WITH ADDITIONAL SUNSHINE ANTICIPATED ON WED...BUMPED
UP TEMPERATURES JUST A BIT. WITH INCREASE IN CLOUDS/PRECIPITATION
WED NIGHT AND THU HAVE BUMPED TEMPERATURES DOWN A BIT FOR THU.
HOWEVER CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY IN TEMPERATURES WITH FRONT LIKELY
IN THE VICINITY OF OK BORDER THU AFTERNOON.

FRI-SUN:

NO CHANGES TO PREVIOUS FORECAST.-HOWERTON

AVIATION... 0600 UTC TAF UPDATE...SCATTERED TO MORE NUMEROUS
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP AND TRACK NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN
AND CENTRAL KANSAS OVERNIGHT. SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS WILL BE
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING VERY LARGE HAIL. MEANWHILE...IFR/LIFR CLOUD
CEILINGS AND PERIODS OF DRIZZLE WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT MUCH OF
THE REGION OVERNIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. THE CLOUD
CEILINGS WILL BEGIN TO LIFT AND SCATTER OUT FROM WEST TO EAST
ACROSS THE AREA...AS A COLD FRONT SWEEPS SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
STATE.
