AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
201 PM CDT THU JUN 19 2008

.DISCUSSION...

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON...EXPECT DEEP LAYER SHEAR
PARAMETERS TO INCREASE AS SHORTWAVE APPROACHES THE CWA FROM THE
WEST.  ONGOING CONVECTION AT 19Z WAS OCCURRING IN UNSTABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH MLCAPE VALUES AOA 2000 J/KG.  DEEP LAYER SHEAR OVER
THE CWA AT 19Z WAS RELATIVELY WEAK HOWEVER WITH H500 FLOW OF ONLY 20
KTS.  MID LVL JET EXPECTED TO ACCOMPANY SHORTWAVE TROUGH AS IT MOVES
EAST...INCREASING H500 FLOW TO AROUND 40-50 KTS BY LATE THIS
AFTERNOON.  DEPENDING ON THE COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY/LOW LVL MOISTURE WOULD COMBINE
WITH THIS MID LVL JET TO INCREASE THE CHANCE OF ORGANIZED MULTICELL
THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING OUTFLOW WINDS AND LARGE
HAIL.  BEFORE THE MID LVL JET WORKS IN...EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE PULSE STRONG TO SEVERE IN NATURE...THE A POTENTIAL FOR MARGINALLY
SEVERE HAIL AND DOWNBURST WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH COLLAPSING TSTM
CORES.  LOW LEVEL SHEAR PROFILES WOULD INDICATE A VERY POOR
ENVIRONMENT FOR TORNADOES.  VERY HEAVY RAINFALL MAY ACCOMPANY ANY
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON OR EVENING...AND LOCALIZED FLOODING IS
A CONCERN ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA.

TONIGHT...SHORTWAVE TROUGH EXPECTED TO PUSH SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE
CWA...LIKELY BRINGING IN AN AREA OF SUBSIDENCE IN ITS WAKE.  MODELS
INDICATE PASSAGE OF A WEAK COLD FRONT BEHIND THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH.
BETWEEN THE PASSAGE OF A WEAK COLD FRONT...AND UPPER LEVEL
SUBSIDENCE FEEL THE CHANCES FOR CONTINUED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT
DIMINISHES QUICKLY AFTER MIDNIGHT.  KEPT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN AFTER
MIDNIGHT AS THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE THAT THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP
ALONG THE COLD FRONT AS IT SINKS SOUTH OVERNIGHT.

FRIDAY...NO SIGNIFICANT SHORTWAVE IS PRESENT IN THE UPSTREAM
FLOW...SO DO NOT THINK WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION WILL OCCUR DURING
THE DAYTIME HOURS.  DEPENDING HOW FAR SOUTH THE COLD FRONT
SINKS...THERE IS A CHANCE OF AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM WITH
SUFFICIENT DAYTIME HEATING...SO KEPT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS GOING IN
EAST CENTRAL KS.  WITH SKIES EXPECTED TO CLEAR OUT COULD SEE
TEMPERATURES SIMILAR TO TODAY BY LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON...WITH TEMPS
CLIMBING INTO THE LOWER TO MID 80S.

SAT/SUN...NW FLOW CONTINUES OVER THE STATE THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
GUIDANCE A BIT NOISY WITH LIGHT QPF INTERMITTENTLY OVER THE STATE
THROUGH THE PERIOD. IMPULSE OVERNIGHT SAT INTO SUNDAY WAS A SMIDGE
STRONGER AND HAVE ADDED SLT CHANCE POPS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS ONE.
TEMPERATURES HOLDING IN THE 80S MOST AREAS.

MON-THURS...TIMING OF PRECIP CHANCES REMAINS TRICKY INTO NEXT
WEEK AS UPPER TROF SHIFTS EAST...UPPER RIDGE THEN NOSES
OVERHEAD...FOLLOWED BY MORE WESTERLY FLOW BY MID TO LATE WEEK.
FRONT HANGS UP ACROSS CTRL KANSAS ON M0NDAY...THEN IS DRAWN ACROSS
EASTERN KANSAS THROUGH TUESDAY AND HAVE ACCOUNTED FOR THIS IN POPS ON
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. FOR WED / THURS...THE UPPER RIDGE OVER THE
DESERT SW SLIDES SLIGHTLY NORTHWARD AND STORM TRACK LIFTS ACROSS
THE NORTHERN TIER. PRECIP CHANCES FOR OUR AREA LIKELY DEPEND ON
HOW FAR SOUTHWARD THE UPPER BOUNDARY MOVES...AND HAVE ADDED A
SLIGHT CHANCE POP SOUTH. TEMPS HOLD GENERALLY IN THE 80S WITH
PATTERN POTENTIAL FOR AN UPTURN TOWARD WARMER TEMPS MID TO LATE
WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 18Z TAF CYCLE...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PERSIST FOR THE
NEXT 24 HRS...WITH TSTMS MOVING NEAR/OVR TAF SITES BEING THE ONLY
CONCERNS FOR MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS. TSTM DEVELOPMENT LOOKS MORE
LIKELY THIS AFTERNOON WITH TSTMS LOOKING TO DEVELOP WEST AFFECTING
MHK POSSIBLY AROUND 21Z WITH TSTMS MOVING EAST TOWARDS TOP AND FOE
THEREAFTER. TSTMS MOVING OVER TAF SITES WILL LIKELY BRING TEMP
MVFR VSBY AND CIGS AS THEY MOVE THROUGH. STRONG OUTFLOW WINDS ARE
ALSO POSSIBLE AS WELL AS HAIL. LESS CONFIDENCE IN TSTMS AFTER
SUNSET...BUT ANY ORGANIZED TSTM STRUCTURE COULD MOVE SOUTHEAST
THROUGH TAF SITES LIKELY BEFORE 06Z. WILL KEEP MENTION OF TSTMS TO
THE DAYLIGHT HRS AT THIS TIME WITH LOWER CONFIDENCE IN TSTMS
MOVING OVER ANY SITE AFTER 00Z.
