What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 23, 8:59 AM CDT, 1 hour 27 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 23, 8:59 AM CDT, 1 hour 27 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
859 AM CDT WED APR 23 2008

.UPDATE...
UPDATED GRIDS TO REFLECT LATEST PRECIPITATION TRENDS. AS FAR AS
SEVERITY OF CONVECTION...DEALING MAINLY WITH MULTICELL CLUSTERS
THAT ARE PULSING. BETTER DEEP LAYER SHEAR /35 TO 40 KNOTS WHICH
WOULD FAVOR ROTATING STORMS...REMAINS WEST OF THE FORECAST
AREA. STORMS THIS MORNING THE RESULT OF ISENTROPIC LIFT/LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE TRANSPORT. ANY SEVERE STORMS SHOULD BE SHORT LIVED AND
NOT ORGANIZED AT THIS TIME.

KRC

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 637 AM CDT WED APR 23 2008/

UPDATE...

WILL BE MAKING MINOR TWEAKS TO GOING GRIDS TO ADJUST TO
OBERVATIONS/SHORT TERM TRENDS. IN THE VERY NEAR TERM THE RUC
SEEMS TO BE DOING BEST WITH THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND
PRECIPITATION. AFTER 1800 UTC ABOUT THERE IS CONSIDERABLE
UNCERTAINTY. THE LOCALLY RUN WRF 32KM WITH NO CONVECTIVE
PARAMETERIZATION MAY HAVE BEST HANDLE ON PRECIPITATION THIS
AFTERNOON/EVENING. IT SHUTS PRECIPITATION DOWN THIS MORNING...THEN
REDEVELOPS PRECIPITATION IN FAR EASTERN SECTIONS OF DDC FORECAST
AREA AROUND 2100 UTC IN ASSOCIATION WITH RATHER IMPRESSIVE
SHORTWAVE. THE BEST LIFT/CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION WOULD APPEAR TO
BE VERY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF
THE FORECAST AREA WITH SLIGHTLY LOWER CHANCES TONIGHT IN SOUTHEAST
KS. BELIEVE THE OPERATIONAL NORTH AMERICAN MODEL/GLOBAL FORECAST
SYSTEM MODEL IS UNDERPLAYING CONVECTIVE AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY
THIS AFTERNOON...WITH VALUES CLOSER AT OR ABOVE 2000J/KILOGRAM
MORE REALISTIC...WITH EVERYTHING DEPENDING ON AMOUNT OF CLOUDS
COVER/HEATING THIS AFTERNOON. -HOWERTON

AVIATION...

ANOTHER TRICKY SET OF TAFS...WITH CONCERNS ABOUT PRECIPITATION
CHANCES AT THE ONSET AND THEN THE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES THIS
AFTERNOON/OVERNIGHT. MODELS CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE BADLY WITH LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE AND RESULTANT CLOUDS. BELIEVE THREAT OF RAIN SHOWERS
WILL WANE BY MIDDLE MORNING...WITH MAINLY SCATTERED CLOUDS FOR MUCH
OF THE AFTERNOON. BELIEVE LOCAL VERSION OF WRF WITH NO CONVECTIVE
PARAMETERIZATION HAS BEST HANDLE ON PRECIPITATION/THUNDERSTORMS
WHICH WOULD SUGGEST VCTS/TSTM TEMPO GROUPS AT KRSL/KHUT BY LATE
THIS AFTERNOON....AND VCTS KSLN/KICT A BIT LATER. FOR KCNU...BEST
PRECIPITATION CHANCES ARE NOT EXPECTED UNTIL CLOSER TO MIDNIGHT.
-HOWERTON

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 300 AM CDT WED APR 23 2008/

DISCUSSION...
MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE PRECIPITATION CHANCES THROUGH FRIDAY.

TODAY-TONIGHT:
CONVECTION JUST GETTING STARTED OVER NORTHERN OKLAHOMA AT 02Z...WITH
SOME CUMULUS ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS. EXPECT THAT CONVECTION WILL
INCREASE OVER SOUTHERN KANSAS THIS MORNING AND THEN OVER THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON. WHILE PRECIPITATION CHANCES INCREASE
THROUGH THE DAY...0-6KM SHEAR REMAINS WEAK. WITH MLCAPE VALUES
BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000J/KG...THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED BUT GIVEN THE
WEAK SHEAR SEVERE STORMS ARE NOT EXPECTED.

THURSDAY-FRIDAY:
MOISTURE TRANSPORT INTO THE AREA REMAINS STRONG ON THURSDAY INTO
FRIDAY...STILL AHEAD OF THE SURFACE LOW WHICH WILL BE OVER WESTERN
KANSAS. THE BEST 0-6KM SHEAR WILL BE OVER THE AREA THURSDAY LATE
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. AT THIS TIME THERE COULD BE SOME
SUPERCELLS...ESPECIALLY BETWEEN 00Z AND 03Z.

THERE WILL LIKELY BE SOME HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THESE STORMS...BUT
WIDESPREAD FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED. 1 HOUR FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE FOR
SOUTHEAST KANSAS ARE AROUND 2 INCHES...AND 3 HOUR FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE IS 3 TO 4 INCHES.

WHILE THE PRECIPITATION CHANCES CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY...CONFIDENCE IS
ONLY MODERATE THAT WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION WILL ACTUALLY CONTINUE
INTO FRIDAY. NAM/WRF KEEPS PRECIPITATION NORTH AND EAST OF KANSAS
FROM THURSDAY LATE EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY...BUT MOISTURE TRANSPORT
CONTINUES TO BE PRETTY STRONG DURING THAT TIME. WILL KEEP
PRECIPITATION CHANCES GOING FOR NOW...BUT LATER SHIFTS WILL NEED TO
LOOK AT THIS TIME FRAME AGAIN.

SATURDAY-TUESDAY:
THE GOING FORECAST LOOKS TO BE PRETTY GOOD...SO NO MAJOR CHANGES
NEEDED. NEAR TO SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE
WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK. ANOTHER SURFACE LOW COMES THROUGH THE
AREA SATURDAY EVENING WITH MORE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES.
