CAVANAUGH/KONOP

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
317 PM CDT THU MAY 01 2008

.DISCUSSION...
GREATEST CONCERN WITHIN THE SHORT TERM CENTERS AROUND SEVERE WEATHER
POTENTIAL FOR SECTIONS OF THE CWA. WINDS HAVE REMAINED GENERALLY
BELOW WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA...SO WILL CANCEL THE REMAINING
COUNTIES.

PSEUDO DRYLINE/COLD FRONT CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM SENECA TO ALMA TO
EMPORIA TO WINFIELD. THIS BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING
EASTWARD BEFORE SLOWING OR STALLING WITHIN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. BOTH
THE NAM AND RUC PLACE THE SFC BOUNDARY NEAR A LINE FROM ST JOSEPH TO
LAWRENCE TO WINFIELD BY 00Z. MODEL GUIDANCE VARIES ON THE BEHAVIOR
OF THE BOUNDARY POST 00Z. NAM SOLUTIONS KEEP THE NORTHERN PORTION OF
THE COLD FRONT STATIONARY OR SLIGHTLY PROGRESSIVE WHILE SLOWLY
BACKING THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE COLD FRONT/DRYLINE WESTWARD. THE
RUC AGGRESSIVELY RETREATS THE BOUNDARY WESTWARD INTO THE CENTRAL
SECTIONS OF THE CWA. BOTH SOLUTIONS ARE REASONABLE PER SE...WITH AN
OCCLUDING LOW PRESSURE IN EASTERN NEBRASKA AND VEERED SFC/H85 FLOW
AIDING IN THE OBSERVED/FORECASTED EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF THE SFC
BOUNDARY. LIKEWISE...ANTICIPATE ANOTHER SFC LOW PRESSURE TO DEVELOP
WITHIN THE VICINITY OF THE TRIPLE POINT IN NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA.
THIS WOULD TEND TO BACK THE SFC/H85 WIND FIELDS...RESULTING IN THE
SOUTHERN KANSAS PORTION OF THE COLD FRONT/DRYLINE BECOMING
STATIONARY OR RETREATING WESTWARD. THIS WOULD ALSO PROVIDE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO ADVECT MUCH DEEPER MOISTURE AND ENHANCE SHEAR
PROFILES ACROSS THE CWA. FORECAST WITHIN THE 00-06Z TIME FRAME
REFLECTS A BLEND BETWEEN THESE TWO SOLUTIONS. BY LATE
EVENING...STRONGER FORCING AS THE NEW SFC LOW LIFTS NORTHEAST WILL
RESULT IN A QUICKER PROGRESSION OF SFC FEATURES.

AT THE PRESENT TIME...A STRONG CAP JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE EXISTS
ACROSS THE AREA...PROHIBITING CONVECTION. 12Z KTOP SOUNDING SHOWS A
+11C TEMPERATURE AT H7. POINT FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST A RAPID
COOLING OF THE INVERSION LAYER AS THE EVENING PROGRESSES...WITH A
REDUCTION TO +5C AT H7 BY 00Z. INDICATIONS OF COOLER AIR ALOFT AND
LARGE SCALE ASCENT ARE LIKELY SEEN WITH THE RECENT INCREASE IN CU
OVER SOUTHEAST COLORADO AND WESTERN KANSAS. A SPECIAL 21Z SOUNDING
WILL BE RELEASED TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THE STRENGTH OF THE LOW
LEVEL INVERSION. SPC RUC MESOANALYSIS STILL SHOWS IN EXCESS OF 100
MLCIN ACROSS THE CWA.

OPERATIONAL MODELS HAVE OVERFORECASTED SFC DEWPOINTS BY 2F TO 5F
OVER MOST OF THE CWA. CURRENTLY TD IN THE UPPER 50S ARE IN PLACE
EAST OF THE COLD FRONT. SLIGHTLY BETTER SFC MOISTURE EXISTS TO THE
SOUTH AND EAST OF THE CWA...WHICH HAS BEEN A RESULT OF THE VEERED
WIND PROFILE AND STRONG MIXING THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY. UNTIL SFC
WINDS BACK...IF AT ALL PER VARIATIONS IN GUIDANCE...ONLY MARGINAL
INCREASE IN SFC MOISTURE IS ANTICIPATED. HOWEVER...IF THE SFC-H85
LAYER BACKS WITH TIME IN ADVANCE OF THE SECONDARY AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE IN THE EARLY EVENING...DEEPER MOISTURE MAY BE REALIZED
WITHIN THE CWA.

INSTABILITY WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT SEVERE CONVECTION
(CURRENTLY 2000 J/KG) AND SPEED SHEAR SUPPORTIVE OF ORGANIZED
ACTIVITY. CURRENTLY...THE DIRECTIONAL SHEAR IS POOR IN THE LOW
LEVELS AND THIS WILL STRONGLY DICTATE THE LOW-LEVEL ROTATION /
TORNADO THREAT. ADDITIONALLY...CURRENT DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS ARE
RATHER LARGE (30F) WHICH WOULD SUGGEST HIGH-BASED SUPERCELLS
INITIALLY. IT WILL HAVE TO BE CLOSELY MONITORED IF THE LOW LEVEL
WIND FIELDS BACK WITH TIME DURING THE EARLY EVENING HOURS...AS THIS
WOULD IMPROVE TORNADO POTENTIAL AS 1) DEEPER MOISTURE AND COOLING OF
THE BOUNDARY LAYER WOULD PROMOTE LOWER LCLS AND 2) IMPROVED
DIRECTIONAL SHEAR IN THE LOW LEVELS AND 3) EARLY EVENING MOST
PROBABLE PERIOD OF ISOLATED CONVECTION (IE. SUPERCELLS).

THE CAP MAY WEAKEN SUFFICIENTLY TO ALLOW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TO
DEVELOP BY EARLY EVENING ALONG THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. THE MOST LIKELY
AREA FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP IS ALONG AND EAST OF A LINE FROM
HIAWATHA TO TOPEKA TO EMPORIA. AS THE EVENING/OVERNIGHT PROGRESSES
THUNDERSTORMS WILL EVOLVE INTO A LINE OF STORMS. LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER
THREATS. ADDITIONALLY...A TORNADO THREAT WILL EXIST WITH ANY
PERSISTENT SUPERCELL STORM OR WELL-ORGANIZED LINE SEGMENT WITHIN THE
SQUALL LINE TONIGHT. THIS ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO PUSH EAST OF THE
OUTLOOK AREA EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...ENDING THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT.

NO LARGE DEVIATION TO PREVIOUS REASONING FOR FRIDAY WEATHER.

BLAIR

SOME WRAP AROUND MOISTURE IS EXPECTED TO STILL BE OVER THE FORECAST
AREA FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE STORM SYSTEM CONTINUES TO LIFT OUT. NOT
MUCH FORCING OR VERTICAL MOTION SEEN IN THE MODEL PROGS...SO EXPECT
ANY PRECIP TO BE VERY LIGHT. BECAUSE OF THIS WENT A LITTLE LOWER ON
POPS THAN THE GUIDANCE HAS FOR FRIDAY NIGHT. SURFACE RIDGING AND
SHORTWAVE RIDGING ALOFT SHOULD BRING SOME COOLER DRYER WEATHER INTO
THE AREA FOR SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.

NEXT STORM SYSTEM IS STILL EXPECTED TO MOVE OUT OF THE ROCKIES BY
MID WEEK. MODELS HAVE SUGGESTED A SLIGHTLY SLOWER TIMING TO THE NEXT
SYSTEM...BUT THERE HAS ALSO BEEN POOR CONSISTENCY BETWEEN THE
INDIVIDUAL RUNS OF THE MODELS. TENDED TO STAY CLOSER TO THE 00Z
ECMWF WITH THE MAIN FORCING MOVING ACROSS THE PLAINS WEDNESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THIS IS WHERE THE CHANCE POPS WILL BE. HAVE KEPT
TEMPS GENERALLY IN THE LOWER 70S FOR MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

WOLTERS

.AVIATION...
TIMING AND INITIATION OF CONVECTION IS THE MAIN CHALLENGE.
UNCERTAINTY IN TS ACTUALLY FIRING PRECLUDES A CATEGORICAL MENTION OF
PRECIP IN THE TERMINALS. THEREFORE HAVE ONLY INCLUDED VCNTY TS. IF
ANY TS DEVELOP...IT SHOULD BE AFT 02Z AS UPPER LEVEL ENERGY BEGINS
AFFECTING THE AREA. IF CONVECTION DOES NOT DEVELOP CONDITIONS SHOULD
BE VRF WITH WINDS EVENTUALLY BECOMING WESTERLY BEHIND THE
FRONT...THOUGH THEY SHOULD STILL BE GUSTY AS SFC PRESSURE GRADIENT
REMAINS TIGHT. FOR FURTHER DETAILS SEE DISCUSSION ABOVE.

HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK

1245 PM CDT THU MAY 1 2008

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL...NORTH
CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

A WARM AND MOIST AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHWARD INTO THE
AREA IN ADVANCE OF A STRONG UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM ENTERING THE
CENTRAL PLAINS. AN ENVIRONMENT CONDUCIVE FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL
MATERIALIZE BY LATE AFTERNOON AND PERSIST INTO THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS FRIDAY. AREAS ALONG AND EAST OF A LINE FROM MARYSVILLE TO
ABILENE HAVE THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER IN THE
OUTLOOK AREA.

A COLD FRONT CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM SENECA TO COUNCIL GROVE...WHICH
SEPARATED DRIER AIR TO THE WEST AND MOIST UNSTABLE AIR TO THE
EAST. THIS BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING EASTWARD BEFORE
SLOWING OR STALLING BY LATE AFTERNOON. AT THE PRESENT TIME...A
STRONG CAP JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE EXISTS ACROSS THE OUTLOOK
AREA...PROHIBITING THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. AS SURFACE
TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO INCREASE AND COOLER AIR ALOFT MOVES INTO
THE REGION...THE CAP MAY WEAKEN SUFFICIENTLY TO ALLOW ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP BY LATE AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING ALONG
THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO
DEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON IS ALONG AND EAST OF A LINE FROM
HIAWATHA TO TOPEKA TO EMPORIA.

THE BOUNDARY MAY BRIEFLY SHIFT BACK SLIGHTLY TO THE WEST DURING
THE EVENING HOURS...BEFORE MOVING EAST THROUGH THE ENTIRE OUTLOOK
AREA BY EARLY MORNING FRIDAY. LOCATIONS NEAR AND EAST OF THE
SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL BE IN AN ENVIRONMENT FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE
WEATHER. STORMS THAT INITIALLY DEVELOP MAY BE SUPERCELLULAR IN
NATURE DUE TO FAVORABLE INSTABILITY AND SHEAR PROFILES. AS THE
EVENING PROGRESSES...THUNDERSTORMS WILL EVOLVE INTO A LINE OF
STORMS. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WILL BE THE
PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER THREATS. ADDITIONALLY...A TORNADO THREAT
WILL EXIST WITH ANY PERSISTENT SUPERCELL STORM OR WELL-ORGANIZED
LINE SEGMENT WITHIN THE SQUALL LINE TONIGHT. THIS ACTIVITY IS
EXPECTED TO PUSH EAST OF THE OUTLOOK AREA EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING...ENDING THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

THUNDERSTORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT
ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTERS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT.
