What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
Apr 26, 1:40 PM CDT	HAIL 0.88	3 Wsw Stafford, KS

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

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 Dodge City, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 26, 3:45 AM CDT, 9 hours 44 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 26, 3:45 AM CDT, 9 hours 44 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
345 AM CDT SUN APR 26 2009

.DISCUSSION...

DAYS 1-2...

THE MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE WILL BE THE SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL
FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

A FAIRLY COMPLICATED PATTERN WILL MAKE FOR A TRICKY FORECAST
TODAY. SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STRETCHING FROM
THE EXTREME NORTHERN TEXAS PANHANDLE THROUGH MEDICINE LODGE AND
ON INTO NORTHEAST KANSAS. THE EASTERN PART OF THIS BOUNDARY HAS
BEEN SLOWLY LIFTING NORTH INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS EARLY THIS
MORNING WITH SLOWLY RISING TEMPERATURES FROM DODGE CITY SOUTHEAST
TO MEDICINE LODGE. FARTHER WEST...WINDS HAVE BACKED AROUND TO THE
NORTH IN RESPONSE TO A SHORT WAVE DISTURBANCE LIFTING OUT OF
COLORADO INTO NEBRASKA EARLY THIS MORNING.

BOTH THE GFS AND NAM HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THE SURFACE
FEATURES EARLY THIS MORNING. WHILE THE NAM PICKED UP ON THE
SURFACE RESPONSE TO THE EXITING SHORTWAVE...IT SEEMS TO BE A
LITTLE TOO AGGRESSIVE WITH THE SOUTHEASTWARD EXTENT OF THE FRONT
TODAY AS IT MOVES IT TO NEAR MEDICINE LODGE THIS AFTERNOON. THE
GFS HAS THE FRONT FROM HAYS TO ELKHART AT 18Z WHICH SEEMS A LITTLE
TOO FAR WEST GIVEN THE CURRENT CONDITIONS. THINK THE FRONT COULD
SET UP FROM GREAT BEND TO NEAR DODGE CITY AND ASHLAND BY EARLY
AFTERNOON BUT DO NOT HAVE A HUGE AMOUNT OF CONFIDENCE IN THAT
IDEA.

THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THE AREA COMING UNDER THE RIGHT
ENTRANCE REGION OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK. WITH THE INCREASED
UVV OVERHEAD...THINK THAT THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE INITIATING BY
EARLY AFTERNOON ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AS WELL AS FARTHER
SOUTH ALONG THE INTERSECTING DRYLINE IN THE EAST TEXAS PANHANDLE.
WITH THE UPPER FLOW BECOMING MORE MERIDIONAL WITH TIME AHEAD OF
THE APPROACHING WAVE OVER THE WESTERN CONUS WE SHOULD SEE A PERIOD
OF SEVERAL HOURS WITH STORMS DEVELOPING AND MOVING NORTHEAST ALONG
THE BOUNDARY. WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR AREAS OF HEAVY RAIN/POSSIBLE
FLOODING AS PW VALUES RISE TO 1.5 INCHES INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS
THIS AFTERNOON.

THE OTHER CONCERN I HAVE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS
OVER THE FAR SOUTHWEST CWA THIS AFTERNOON. MODEL SOUNDINGS FROM
THE NAM AND GFS SHOW THE ATMOSPHERE BECOMING WELL MIXED THIS
AFTERNOON. THIS WILL BE DEPENDANT ON WHETHER THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY
CAN MIX OUT THERE THIS AFTERNOON. FOR NOW WILL NOT GO WITH ANY
HEADLINE BUT WILL MENTION THE POSSIBILITY IN THE FWF AND HWO.

THE UPPER SYSTEM APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL MOVE EAST OVER THE
CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY. THIS SHOULD BRING AN
END TO PRECIPITATION CHANCES ACROSS SOUTHWEST KANSAS BY MIDDAY MONDAY.

GERARD

DAYS 3-7...

ALL THE MODELS, INITIALLY STARTING WITH THE ECMWF, HAVE BACKED AWAY
FROM THE EXPLOSIVE SEVERE WEATHER SCENARIO ADVERTISED FOR THE WEDNESDAY
TO FRIDAY TIME FRAME. THE MODELS NOW SHEAR OUT THE SYSTEM ACROSS
THE NORTHERN PLAINS, WITH A COLD COOL UPPER VORTEX SLIDING INTO SE
CANADA AND THE GREAT LAKES BY LATE WEEK. A MINOR WAVE MAY BRING A
ROUND OF SHOWERS BY WEDNESDAY. A MID LEVEL BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL
BECOME ESTABLISHED BY LATE WEEK. AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND WEAK
WARM ADVECTION COULD RESULT IN A FEW SHOWERS ON FRIDAY. MAXES WERE
LOWERED FOR FRI-SAT AS COOL HIGH IS EXPECTED TO NOSE DOWN THE
PLAINS. THE CANADIAN/ECMWF BRING A FAIRLY STRONG SHORTWAVE TROUGH
INTO THE PLAINS BY SATURDAY ALONG WITH ANOTHER CHANCE OF STORMS.

&&

.AVIATION...

IFR/LIFR CIGS WILL PERSIST AT GCK/HYS/DDC THROUGH 12-14Z IN A WARM
ADVECTION PATTERN BEFORE GRADUALLY IMPROVING THEREAFTER. DDC IS
VERY CLOSE TO THE SFC WARM FRONT AS OF 8Z AND MAY FLUCTUATE BETWEEN
MVFR AND IFR THIS MORNING BEFORE IMPROVING BY MID MORNING.
