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 29, 3:30 PM CDT, 5 hours 12 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 29, 3:30 PM CDT, 5 hours 12 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
330 PM CDT WED APR 29 2009

.DISCUSSION...

DAYS 1-2...
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS REMAIN POSSIBLE NEAR A DRYLINE
WHICH AT 2 PM WAS LOCATED NEAR THE KS/CO BORDER. 12Z UPPER AIR
ANALYSIS INDICATED A WEAK 5H THERMAL TROF LOCATED IN NEW MEXICO
WITH BOTH THE NAM AND GFS MOVING THIS E/NE INTO SW KS LATE TODAY.
THIS COMBINED WITH NEAR 60 DEGREE DWPTS AND CAPES IN EXCESS OF
3000J/KG SHOULD ALLOW ANY STORM THAT CAN DEVELOP IN THIS AREA TO
BECOME SEVERE LATE TODAY/EARLY TONIGHT. ONCE DEVELOPED THESE
STORMS NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE MUCH. STORM MOTION VECTORS VIA BUFKIT
SUGGESTS MOVEMENT OF LESS THAN 10KTS SO INITIAL PLAN IS TO KEEP ALL
PCPN CHANCES THIS EVENING IN OUR WESTERN CWA.

OVERNIGHT...SFC-85H MOISTURE AXIS AND 7H BAROCLINIC ZONE IS
PROGGED TO EXTEND FROM NE CO INTO NRN KS. ANY CONVECTION WHICH
DOES DEVELOP OVER NE CO IS LIKELY MOVE E/NE ALONG THIS MID LVL
BAROCLINIC ZONE LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY FRIDAY. BOTH THE NAM AND
GFS REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH KEEPING THE BULK OF THIS PCPN
MAINLY IN OUR NRN CWA WHICH AT THIS TIME SEEMS REASONABLE.

DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY OUR COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO WORK
ITS WAY SOUTH ACROSS SW KS AND BY EVENING THIS FRONT IS STILL
EXPECTED TO BE LOCATED NEAR OR JUST SOUTH OF THE OK/KS BORDER.
NORTH OF THIS FRONT 85H WAA AND ISENTROPIC LIFT WILL DEVELOP.
ALTHOUGH DIFFICULT TO SEE MUCH UPPER LVL FORCING THURSDAY
AFTERNOON GIVEN THE ISENTROPIC LIFT, POOL OF 925-85H MOISTURE AND
WAA WILL KEEP SOME SMALL CHC POPS GOING INTO EARLY THURSDAY NIGHT.

BY EARLY FRIDAY BETTER WAA AND MOIST ADV DEVELOPS ACROSS MUCH OF
OUR CWA AS A 5H VORT LOBED CROSSES CO AND APPROACHES WRN KS. THE
BETTER LIFT APPEARS TO BE BETWEEN 06-12Z FRI WITH PCPN THEN
STARTING TO TAPER OFF FROM NORTH TO SOUTH DURING THE DAY. HAVE
THEREFORE PLACED THE HIGHEST POPS LATE THURSDAY NIGHT WITH PCPN
ENDING ON FRIDAY.

GIVEN PCPN CHANCES AND CLOUD COVER WILL LEAN TOWARDS OUR COOLER
NAM SOLUTION AS GUIDANCE FOR TEMPS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. THE
EXCEPTION TO THIS WILL BE OUR NRN CWA WHERE SOME AFTERNOON SUN MAY
AID IN ALLOWING THE HIGHS FRIDAY AFTERNOON TO BOUNCE BACK WELL
INTO THE 50S.

DAYS 3-7...
THE MEDIUM RANGE FORECAST APPEARS TO HAVE TWO MAIN PERIODS WHERE
PRECIPITATION MAY BE MORE LIKELY, ASSOCIATED WITH A PAIR OF
SHORTWAVE TROUGHS, ONE  IN THE SATURDAY NIGHT-MONDAY MORNING
TIMEFRAME, AND ANOTHER MORE FOCUSED INTO THE EARLY PORTIONS OF NEXT
WEEK (MAINLY TUESDAY).

A LARGE POLAR VORTEX WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS HUDSON BAY DURING THE
PERIOD, CREATING A BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST.
THIS WILL WIND UP CREATING A SLIGHTLY CONFLUENT OS ZONAL FLOW
PATTERN ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY, IN ADVANCE OF
AN APPROACHING PACIFIC SHORTWAVE FOR SUNDAY. WE WILL BEGIN THE
PERIOD COOL, HOWEVER INTENSE WARM ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE TROUGH
SHOULD BRING ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE RELATIVELY
COOL NEAR SURFACE BOUNDARY LAYER BY SUNDAY AND HAVE WENT WITH AS
HIGH AS 50 POP FOR SECTIONS OF THE CWA ON DAY5. TEMPERATURES BY
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AFTERNOONS ARE STILL FORECAST FAIRLY MILD IN THE
UPPER 50S AND A RELATIVELY SMALL DIURNAL RANGE GIVEN POTENTIAL FOR
PRECIPITATION AND CLOUD COVER. THERE ARE SOME CONSIDERABLE TIMING
DIFFERENCES WITH THIS FIRST WAVE, AS THE GFS APPEARED A BIT LESS
AMPLIFIED AND QUICKER. HAVE KEPT FORECAST MORE IN  LINE WITH THE
MORE CONSISTENT ECWMF.

FOLLOWING THE INITIAL WAVE SUNDAY, THE MODELS BUILD A SHORT LIVED
LOW AMPLITUDE RIDGE INTO KANSAS ON MONDAY, AND HAVE KEPT THIS PERIOD
DRY WITH A BRIEF WARMING INTO THE LOW 70S.

THE SECONDARY WAVE ARRIVES LATER IN THE FORECAST PERIOD, BUT THERE
HAS BEEN REASONABLY GOOD CONTINUITY IN MODELS AND FAIRLY DECENT
CONFIDENCE QUITE SO FAR OUT AS TO PLACE 30-40 POPS IN DAY 7
TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...
SEVERAL THINGS TO CONSIDER FOR TONIGHT ACROSS THE REGION AS LITTLE
CHANCE IN AIRMASS IS EXPECTED. TEH SURFACE LOW SHOULD SHIFT EAST
TONIGHT ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST COLORADO/SW KANSAS AREA, ALLOWING THE
REGIONS OF BEST SFC CONVERGENCE TO BE SHIFTED INTO NW AND CENTRAL
KS. AS BOUNDARY LAYER COOLING INCREASES TONIGHT THESE WILL LIKELY
BE THE BETTER REGION FOR FOCUSED STRATUS DEVELOPMENT AND IFR
CEILINGS. WILL FORECAST IFR CONDITIONS AFTER 7 UTC FOR KHYS, WITH
IMPROVED CONDITIONS AT KDDC AND KGCK.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...SOUTH
CENTRAL...SOUTHWEST AND WEST CENTRAL KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A DRYLINE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE OUT INTO FAR WESTERN KANSAS THIS AFTERNOON.
AFTERNOON HEATING SHOULD HELP INITIATE A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE
DRYLINE. THESE STORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL BEING THE
PRIMARY THREAT. ISOLATED TORNADOES COULD ALSO OCCUR DURING THE
EARLY EVENING HOURS. THE BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
ALONG AND WEST OF A LINE FROM SCOTT CITY TO LIBERAL.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

A COOL FRONT WILL BE MOVING SOUTH ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS DURING THE DAY
THURSDAY. HEATING AHEAD OF THE FRONT SHOULD DESTABILIZE THE ATMOSPHERE
SUFFICIENTLY FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT. LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREAT. THE BEST CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE IN THE AREA EAST OF A WAKEENEY TO MEADE LINE.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTERS MAY BE NEEDED AROUND AND WEST OF SCOTT CITY...GARDEN CITY
AND LIBERAL.
