AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE
250 PM CDT WED JUN 4 2008

.DISCUSSION...
ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. MAIN
CONCERNS WILL BE WITH TIMING AND LOCATION OF CONVECTION.

18Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED LOW PRESSURE OVER SOUTHEAST COLORADO
WITH A WARM FRONT STRETCHING FROM SOUTHWEST INTO NORTHEAST KANSAS
AND NORTHERN MISSOURI. SOME CONVECTION ALREADY DEVELOPING IN CENTRAL
NEBRASKA AND NEAR SOUTHEAST SOUTH DAKOTA BORDER. INITIAL THOUGHTS
ARE FOR WARM FRONT NEAR SOUTHEAST BORDER TO BECOME THE MAIN
FOCUS FOR CONVECTION LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING AS LOW
LEVEL JET KICKS IN AND COLORADO LOW LIFTS NORTHEAST TOWARD NEBRASKA.
PW VALUES APPROACHING 2 INCHES ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT SO HEAVY RAIN
ALSO LIKELY WITH THE STORMS. EXPECT CONVECTION TO MAKE STEADY
PROGRESS NORTH OVERNIGHT AS BOTH NAM AND GFS MOVE 850-700MB THETA-E
AXIS FROM NEAR THE NEBRASKA KANSAS BORDER THIS EVENING TO SOUTHEAST
SOUTH DAKOTA AND NORTH CENTRAL IOWA BY MORNING. WILL ISSUE HEADLINES
FOR FLASH FLOOD WATCH TONIGHT 00Z-12Z FOR THE ENTIRE CWA DUE TO
RECENT RAINFALL.

AFTER A MORNING BREAK...THREAT OF SEVERE STORMS AND HEAVY RAIN WILL
RETURN TO THE AREA THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND THURSDAY NIGHT AS COLD
FRONT MOVES THROUGH ACCOMPANIED BY A STRONG UPPER WAVE...WITH
ANOTHER FRONT COMING ACROSS ON SATURDAY FOR YET ANOTHER CHANCE
OF STORMS.

LITTLE CHANGE TO THE EXTENDED AT THIS TIME WITH TREND TOWARD HPC
GUIDANCE.

.AVIATION...
FOR TAF SITES KOMA...KLNK AND KOFK THRU 05/00Z.

STUBBORN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE KEPT MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS IN PLACE MUCH
OF THE MORNING...WITH KOMA STILL BELOW FL020 CIGS. HOWEVER EXPECT
CIGS TO LIFT TO VFR SOON AND REMAIN VFR THROUGH THE EVENING.
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WILL LIKELY OCCUR IN CENTRAL NEBRASKA THEN
MOVE EAST WITH TIME...REACHING TAF SITES AFTER 03Z. SOME STORMS
COULD BE STRONG. LINGERING THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH
