...A FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1045 AM CDT FOR
NEOSHO...SOUTHERN ALLEN AND SOUTHERN WOODSON COUNTIES...

AT 649 AM CDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR CONTINUED TO 
INDICATE THUNDERSTORMS MOVING OVER THE WARNED AREA.

AT 649 AM CDT...LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT WAS REPORTING NUMEROUS AREAS 
WHERE LOW LYING FLOODING WAS OCCURRING IN NEOSHO COUNTY. WATER WAS 
ALSO CROSSING HIGHWAY 146.

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
253 AM CDT FRI JUN 13 2008

.DISCUSSION...

THE MAIN CONCERN IS THE SHORT TERM WITH THE FLOOD THREAT THIS
MORNING AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES MOVING BACK INTO THE PICTURE ON
SATURDAY NIGHT.

TODAY:
LATEST LOOK AT THE PROFILERS WAS SHOWING A VERY DISTINCT ELEVATED
BOUNDARY (850MB) EXTENDING FROM NEAR BARBER COUNTY TO NEAR WICHITA.
THIS BOUNDARY WILL MOVE VERY LITTLE THIS MORNING. IN
ADDITION...THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF AID FROM THE RIGHT ENTRANCE
REGION OF THE UPPER LEVEL JET POSITIONED FROM SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO
THE UPPER MIDWEST. THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO GOOD ALONG-STREAM
VARIATION OCCURRING FROM THE MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM IN THAT
REGION. UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE IS ALSO SHARPLY DIFFLUENT. AIR MASS
IS VERY RICH WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OVER 2 INCHES. THE LOW
LEVEL JET IS PROGGED TO VEER OUT TOWARDS DAYBREAK WHICH SHOULD ALLOW
FOR THE CELLS TO BECOME MORE PROGRESSIVE. HOWEVER...I AM A BIT
CONCERNED THAT IT MAY TRY TO REGENERATE. AS A RESULT...WE PLAN ON
KEEPING THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH GOING THIS MORNING. SOME AREAS COULD
SEE AS MUCH AS 5 TO 7 INCHES BEFORE ALL IS SAID AND DONE LATER THIS
MORNING. THE BOUNDARY SHOULD GRADUALLY SHIFT SOUTHEAST BY AFTERNOON
AND ALLOW FOR MOST OF THE CONVECTION TO MOVE EASTWARD.

TONIGHT:
SHOULD BE A FAIRLY QUIET NIGHT FOR THE MOST PART AS SUBSIDENCE
BUILDS OVER THE AREA.

SATURDAY-SATURDAY NIGHT:
WE MAY SEE SOME ISOLATED CONVECTION TRY TO DEVELOP ALONG THE DRY
LINE SATURDAY AFTERNOON...BUT THERE IS SOME POTENTIAL THAT A
MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM COULD DEVELOP IN THE HIGH PLAINS AND
MOVE TOWARDS CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS SATURDAY NIGHT.

SUNDAY-TUESDAY:
THE MODELS ARE SHOWING THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING IN THE ROCKIES
AND ALLOWING FOR NORTHWEST FLOW TO DEVELOP OVER THE PLAINS AND SETUP
A PATTERN WHERE WE MAY SEE NIGHTLY MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES.
AS A RESULT...WE HAVE KEPT POPS IN THE PICTURE THROUGH EARLY NEXT
WEEK.

.AVIATION...

FOR 06Z TAFS...MAIN AVIATION CONCERN REMAINS STORM CHANCES THROUGH
MAINLY THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

STORMS CONTINUE TO TRACK ALONG THE COLD FRONT THROUGH SE KS. IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT ADDITIONAL STORMS WILL DEVELOP SOUTHWEST OF THIS
ACTIVITY OVER EXTREME SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS AND TRACK EAST. THEREFORE
KCNU WILL HAVE THE HIGHEST POTENTIAL TO EXPERIENCE STRONG STORMS
THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. KICT WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE A CHANCE OF
STORMS OVERNIGHT BUT WITH MUCH LESS CONFIDENCE THAN KCNU. SOME
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY IS OCCURRING OVER CENTRAL KS WHERE TWO SURFACE
BOUNDARIES HAVE COLLIDED. IN ADDITION THIS AREA IS CLOSE TO THE
UPPER WAVE. THIS ACTIVITY OVER CENTRAL KS IS NOT EXPECTED TO BECOME
SEVERE AND WILL LIKELY WEAKEN AS THE STORMS TRACK NORTHEAST.

THE THREAT FOR STORMS WILL LINGER AT KCNU THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS
BEFORE ENDING IN THE AFTERNOON.
