Area forecast discussion, May 18, 3:17 PM CDT, 7 hours 30 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
317 PM CDT TUE MAY 18 2010

.DISCUSSION...

DAYS 1-2...

ACTIVE WEATHER IS EXPECTED FOR SOUTHWEST KANSAS OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS. A SPLIT FLOW PATTERN IS IN PLACE WITH A WESTERN CONUS BRANCH
300 MB JET OF AROUND 80 KNOTS EXTENDING FROM CENTRAL CALIFORNIA INTO
THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES THIS MORNING. THE UPPER JET WILL CONTINUE TO
ADVECT EASTWARD SUPPORTING ISENTROPIC LIFT ACROSS SOUTHEAST
COLORADO INTO SOUTHWEST KANSAS. ADDITIONALLY A SURFACE TROUGH THAT
HAS DEVELOPED ACROSS THE REGION IS CENTERED FROM AROUND LAS ANIMAS
TOWARD THE ELKHART AND LIBERAL AREA, WHERE ENHANCED LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE CONVERGENCE IS EXPECTED. RIGHT MOVING SUPERCELLS THAT
ADVECT OUT OF EASTERN COLORADO LATE THIS AFTERNOON EARLY EVENING
MAY BE A TORNADIC THREAT IN THOSE FAR WESTERN COUNTIES. LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE ADVECTION INCREASES THROUGH 6 UTC WEST OF A WAKEENY-DODGE
CITY LINE AND A LOW LEVEL JET INCREASING LOW LEVEL SHEAR TO AROUND
30 KNOTS AND WIDESPREAD +10 DEG C DEW POINT TEMPERATURES PARKED
ACROSS THE TEXAS PANHANDLE WILL COMBINE FOR HEAVY RAIN PRODUCING MCS
CLUSTERS SOMEWHERE ALONG THE KANSAS OKLAHOMA LINE WITH A LOWER
EXPECTATION OF SEVERE FARTHER  NORTH, BUT STILL ANY ORGANIZED
CONVECTION DEVELOPING SOUTH OF NORTHEAST COLORADO OR NORTHWEST
KANSAS WOULD BE CAPABLE OF CREATING WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALLY
SEVERE HAIL.

AS THE UPPER JET EXITS FROM THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES ON WEDNESDAY A
DEEPENING 700 MB LOW WILL BE DEVELOPING OVER THE WESTERN PART OF THE
STATE, AND QG FRONTOGENESIS AS MID LEVEL INSTABILITY WILL STILL BE
PRESENT FOR CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT OF HEAVY RAIN PRODUCING
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON, BUT
DECREASING INSTABILITY WILL LIMIT ANY SEVERE THREAT INTO WEDNESDAY
EXCEPT FOR THE EXTREME SOUTHERN COUNTIES THAT WILL BE ALONG THE NOSE
OF THE WARM SECTOR/INSTABILITY AXIS EXTENDING FROM WESTERN OKLAHOMA
INTO SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST KANSAS.

THE MID LEVEL LOW FEATURE AND CONVECTIVE/RAIN CHANCES WILL BE A
MAIN FACTOR IN TEMPERATURES OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS WELL, AS
MODELS ARE IN AGREEMENT ON SOME CLEARING AND WARMING AS WELL ACROSS
THE SOUTHWEST COUNTIES WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, BUT COOL UPPER 50S OR AT
BEST LOW 60S FOR HIGHS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE CLOUDY WET INTERSTATE 70
CORRIDOR EVEN INTO THURSDAY.

RUSSELL

DAYS 3-7...

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY STILL LOOKS DRY AS AN UPPER LVL S/W RIDGE BUILDS
ACROSS THE CNTL PLAINS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE REBOUNDING BACK INTO
THE UPPER 70S TO MID 80S ON FRIDAY WITH 85H MIX DOWN TEMPS FROM THE
ECMWF AND GFS SUGGESTING SOME LOWER 90S STILL NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION ON SATURDAY.

IN ADDITION A WEDGE OF WARM MID LVL TEMPS ARE STILL PROGGED TO
SPREAD EASTWARD INTO WRN KS DURING THE DAY WITH A DRYLINE PLACED IN
OR NEAR OUR CWA. GIVEN THESE WARM MID LVL TEMPS HAVE OPTED TO
CONTINUE TO KEEP THE FORECAST DRY FOR NOW SAT EVE BUT LEFT SOME
10-13% POPS GOING IN OUR WRN CWA NEAR THE DRYLINE.

FOR SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...AN UPPER LOW WILL ESTABLISH ITSELF OVER
THE WRN CONUS WITH MULTIPLE WAVES EMBEDDED IN THIS FLOW PROGGED TO
MOVE OUT FROM THE BASE OF THIS LOW AND INTO THE PLAINS. ALL THE
MODELS TODAY APPEAR TO BE STRUGGLING WITH THE EVOLUTION OF THIS
UPPER LOW AND TIMING OF ANY OF THESE EMBEDDED UPPER WAVES. AT THIS
TIME CONFIDENCE OF WHICH ONE IS MORE CORRECT IS LOW SO GIVEN THIS
WILL STAY WITH PERSISTENCE FOR MONDAY AND THEN INSERT A SMALL POPS
INTO THE GRIDS ON TUESDAY.

.AVIATION...

GIVEN PROGGED ISENTROPIC LIFT AND MOISTURE PRESENT ACROSS MUCH OF
WESTERN KANSAS TODAY THINK THE GENERAL TREND OF LOWERING CIGS
THROUGH EARLY TONIGHT STILL LOOKS ON TRACK. MAY BE A BIT MORE
AGGRESSIVE WITH MVFR CIGS LATER TODAY GIVEN CURRENT OBS. PCPN
CHANCES IMPROVE SIGNIFICANTLY AFTER SUNSET WITH THE BEST CHANCE FOR
STEADY/HEAVY RAINFALL AT DDC AND GCK BEFORE MIDNIGHT WITH AFTER
MIDNIGHT STORMS MORE LIKELY AT THE HAYS AIRPORT.
