Area forecast discussion, Apr 26, 6:07 AM CDT, 20 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS 607 AM CDT SUN APR 26 2009 .AVIATION...12Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU STRATUS AND FOG IN CENTRAL KANSAS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE INTO THE FIRST COUPLE HOURS OF THE TAF PERIOD. OTHERWISE...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL WILL BE THE MAIN FOCUS FOR THIS FORECAST. BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...AND HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE AS WELL. LOCATION OF THE SURFACE FRONT WILL BE TRICKY TODAY...AND REALLY COULD BE ANYWHERE BETWEEN KGBD AND KHUT FOR MUCH OF THE DAY BEFORE MOVING EASTWARD TONIGHT AND ON MONDAY. SCHRECK && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 316 AM CDT SUN APR 26 2009/ DISCUSSION... MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE SEVERE WEATHER CHANCES AS WELL AS FLOODING POTENTIAL FOR TODAY THROUGH MONDAY. TODAY-TONIGHT: CONVECTION CONTINUES THIS MORNING ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS...AHEAD OF THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM THAT IS OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST. THERE HAS BEEN SOME HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS ALREADY...WITH MORE RAIN ON THE WAY. TRICKY PART OF THE FORECAST TODAY WILL BE WHERE THE SURFACE FRONT WILL SET UP...AND THAT WILL AFFECT ALL FACETS OF THE FORECAST FROM TEMPERATURES TO SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL. CONFIDENCE IS FAIRLY HIGH AT THIS POINT THAT THE FRONT WILL SET UP SOMEWHERE ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS THIS MORNING. AHEAD OF THE FRONT...DEWPOINTS WILL BE IN THE 60S...AND WINDS WILL BE GUSTY. BEHIND THE FRONT...DEWPOINTS WILL LIKELY BE IN THE 40S AND AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE MIDDLE 50S TO LOWER 60S. WILL GO WITH A MORE NORTH SOLUTION AS FAR AS FRONT POSITION...WHICH WOULD RESULT IN KRSL BEING IN THE MIDDLE 70S RATHER THAN THE MIDDLE 50S. SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL WILL ALSO DEPEND ON FRONTAL POSITION...BUT AT LEAST MUCH OF THE AREA HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER TODAY...AND ESPECIALLY THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. WITH SOME AREAS ALREADY SEEING AN INCH OR MORE OF RAIN THIS WEEKEND...AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER 1 TO 2 INCHES THIS AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY...WILL CONTINUE THE FLOOD WATCH. AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAINFALL TOTALS IS TRICKY WITH THE UNCERTAIN FRONT POSITION...SO HAVE DECIDED TO EXPAND THE WATCH FARTHER WEST TO INCLUDE ALL COUNTIES ALONG I-135 AND ALSO ADD A COUPLE COUNTIES FARTHER EAST INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS. AS FAR AS THE GUSTY WINDS TODAY...STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS. WHILE GUSTY WINDS ARE EXPECTED...THERE IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE A GREAT DEAL OF SUNSHINE TO ALLOW FOR MIXING. HOWEVER...IF THERE IS SOME CLEARING...A WIND ADVISORY WOULD LIKELY BE ISSUED GIVEN STRONG WINDS ALOFT. MONDAY-TUESDAY: PRECIPITATION WILL LIKELY CONTINUE ON MONDAY...BEFORE THE FRONT MOVES EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA MONDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING. WILL KEEP THE FLOOD WATCH GOING THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. EXPECT TUESDAY TO BE DRY DURING THE DAY BEFORE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES RETURN FOR TUESDAY NIGHT. SKIES ARE GOING TO CLEAR OUT ON MONDAY NIGHT...SO LOWERED OVERNIGHT LOWS INTO THE UPPER 30S AND LOWER 40S ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA. WEDNESDAY-SATURDAY: NO REAL CHANGES MADE TO THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST GIVEN SEVERAL FORECAST CONCERNS IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS. IN GENERAL THOUGH...ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE AS SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT PERSISTS. SCHRECK AVIATION...06Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU MAIN FORECAST CONCERN WILL BE VERY LOW CIGS OVERNIGHT AND ADDITIONAL STORMS SUN AFTERNOON-EVENING. STORMS OVER SE KS AND SOUTH OF THE BORDER WILL CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. SOME OF THE ACTIVITY WILL SKIRT EXTREME SOUTH CENTRAL KS THROUGH 08Z BUT WILL NOT HIT IT TOO HARD IN THE KICT TAF. STORMS DEVELOPED OVER CENTRAL KS A FEW HOURS AGO ALONG THE NOSE OF THE BETTER THETA-E ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT...BUT FEEL CONFIDENT THAT THIS ACTIVITY WILL STAY NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. THE SURFACE FRONT WILL LIFT BACK TO THE NORTHWEST OVERNIGHT...ALLOWING RICH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TO ROLL BACK WEST. THIS WILL CAUSE IFR...AND SOME LIFR...CIGS TO OVERSPREAD THE WESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THESE LOWER CIGS WILL STAY IN PLACE MUCH OF THE DAY FOR CENTRAL KS. STORMS WILL DEVELOP SUN AFTERNOON ALONG THE SURFACE FRONT OVER CENTRAL KS ON SUN AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY WILL DEVELOP TO THE SOUTHWEST AND WILL AFFECT THE FORECAST AREA MAINLY AFT ER 00Z.
