.DISCUSSION...

DAYS 1-2...

ONGOING CONVECTION SPREADING INTO PORTIONS OF OUR NRN CWA EARLIER
THIS MORNING. RADAR TRENDS HAVE BEEN GOING DOWN AS THESE STORMS
SPREAD INTO A MORE STABLE AIR MASS AND APPEAR TO BE BECOMING MORE
ELEVATED IN NATURE. FOR THIS MORNING WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW RADAR
TRENDS AND ATTEMPT TO TRACK PCPN AS IT EXITS THE CWA LATER THIS
MORNING. GIVEN THIS PCPN WILL BE FAVORING THE NAM THIS MORNING
WITH THE FURTHER SOUTH SOLUTION OF THE SFC-85H BOUNDARY/BAROCLINIC
ZONE. AS A RESULT EXPECT TO SEE A BOUNDARY IN/NEAR OUR NRN CWA BY
LATE DAY DURING MAX HEATING. GRANTED THERE WILL BE SOME VERY WARM
AIR IN PLACE IN THE MID LVLS ACROSS SW KS LATE IN THE DAY BUT
GIVEN THE PROGGED CAPE/SHEAR ALONG AND NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY HAVE
OPTED TO INSERT SOME SMALL LATE DAY/EARLY EVENING POPS IN OUR
N/NW. WILL THEN CONTINUE WITH CHC POPS IN OUR NRN CWA THROUGH AT
LEAST MIDNIGHT BEFORE TAPERING PCPN OFF FROM NW TO SE. ALSO JUST
WEST OF THE CO BORDER NEAR EHA BOTH THE NAM AND GFS AT 00Z TUE WERE
HINTING AT SOME CONVECTION ATTEMPTING TO DEVELOP HERE. AT THIS
TIME MUCH LESS OPTIMISTIC WITH PCPN DEVELOPING HERE GIVEN THE 7H
TEMPS BUT SINCE BOTH MODELS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST SOMETHING TRYING
TO DEVELOP WENT AHEAD AND INSERTED SMALL SLT CHC POPS FOR A FEW
COUNTIES IN OUR SE CWA.

AS THIS CONVECTION MOVES E/NE OF THE AREA LATE TONIGHT OUR NEXT
COLD WILL SLIDE SOUTH ACROSS WRN KS. MUCH OF THE DAY ON TUESDAY
APPEARS DRY BUT AS THE MID LVLS COOL AND LIFT IMPROVES JUST NORTH
OF THIS BOUNDARY WILL REINTRODUCE PCPN TO MUCH OF SW/SC KS BY
EARLY EVENING.

ON TUESDAY NIGHT UPSLOPE FLOW AND I310 ISENTROPIC LIFT BEGINS TO
IMPROVE AS A 5H VORT LOBE STARTS TO MOVE ACROSS ERN CO. A LITTLE
SURPRISED AT THE LACK OF MOISTURE ON THE ISENTROPIC SFC BUT GIVEN
THIS LIFT DEVELOPING AHEAD OF THE 5H WAVE WILL GO AHEAD AND
INCREASE POPS ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA TUESDAY NIGHT.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES TODAY 85H-7H TEMPS CONTINUE TO SUPPORT A HOT
FORECAST SO WILL KEEP TEMPS AROUND 100 FOR MUCH OF THE CWA. DID
HOWEVER LEAN TOWARDS THE SLIGHTLY COOLER MET IN THE NORTH. HIGHS
TUESDAY AFTERNOON ARE EXPECTED TO AVERAGE CLOSE TO 10F COOLER THAN
THOSE THIS AFTERNOON NORTH OF THE FRONT WHICH IS PROGGED TO EXTEND
ACROSS OUR SE CWA LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON. SOUTH OF THE FRONT
TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN LIKELY TO CLIMB BACK INTO THE 90S.

DAYS 3-7...

WE WILL LIKELY HAVE SOME RESIDUAL PRECIP AROUND EARLY WEDNESDAY AS
UPSLOPE FLOW BEHIND THE COLD FRONT CONTINUES OVER THE CENTRAL
PLAINS. IT IS STARTING TO LOOK LIKE WED COULD BE MUCH COOLER THAN
WHAT WE HAVE GOING. WILL TREND DOWN BUT WILL LET THE DAY SHIFT TAKE
ANOTHER LOOK AT THAT BEFORE MAKING ANY MAJOR CHANGES. THE THU-SAT
PERIOD CONTINUES TO LOOK QUITE WARM WITH VERY LOW TO NO CHANCE OF
PRECIP AS A RIDGE MOVES ACROSS THE MIDDLE OF THE COUNTRY AND A LARGE
TROF DIGS IN OVER THE WEST. THE MODELS CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE WITH HOW
AND WHEN TO KICK OUT THE BIG WESTERN TROF. THE EC IS NOW THE FASTER
MODEL WITH A STRONG FROPA SAT AND THE GFS HAS SLOWED THE SYSTEM
DOWN. PREVIOUS SHIFT INTRODUCED POPS FOR NEXT WEEKEND, ESP SUNDAY,
AND SEE NO REASON TO CHANGE THAT NOW. -WRIGHT

&&

.AVIATION...

AM TRACKING A LARGE MCS MOVING ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA ATM. THIS
CLUSTER OF STORMS WILL AFFECT ALL TERMINALS WITH MVFR (POSSIBLY AS
LOW AS VFR) CIGS AND VIS THROUGH APPROX 07/12Z. THE SYSTEM WILL MOVE
INTO OK THEREAFTER WITH CONDS IMPROVING TO VFR AND REMAINING THAT
WAY THROUGH THE REST OF THE TAF PERIOD. BREEZY SOUTH FLOW IS
EXPECTING TO DEVELOP AFTER 07/18Z AT ALL TERMINALS. WE MAY SEE A FEW
STORMS DEVELOP OVER COLORADO LATER TODAY WHICH COULD AFFECT KGCK AND
WILL ADDRESS THAT IN SUBSEQUENT TAFS. -WRIGHT
