AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

.DISCUSSION...
229 PM MDT TUE JUN 22 2010

AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH SEEN LIFTING NORTHEAST ACROSS WYOMING
AND COLORADO IN WATER VAPOR IMAGERY WILL ASSIST IN THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT THIS EVENING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. GUIDANCE
SUGGESTS THE MAIN FOCUS FOR STORMS THIS EVENING WILL BE IN OUR
SOUTHEAST COUNTIES ALONG AN AXIS FROM TRIBUNE TO HILL CITY AND
NORTON. THIS IS ON THE NORTHERN EDGE OF VERY WARM SURFACE
TEMPERATURES AND THE LOCATION OF A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONT WITH
WEAK TO MODERATE SURFACE CONVERGENCE. MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW LITTLE
CONVECTIVE INHIBITION DUE TO SURFACE TEMPERATURES NOW APPROACHING
100 DEGREES. DEWPOINTS HAVE DROPPED IN THIS AREA...NOW IN THE
MIDDLE TO UPPER 50S. GIVEN THE T-TD SPREADS FEEL THAT STORMS WILL
BE HIGHER BASED WITH WIND BEING A SIGNIFICANT THREAT ALONG WITH
LARGE HAIL. STORM MOVEMENT WILL BE GENERALLY NORTHEAST.

FURTHER NORTH ALONG THE NEBRASKA BORDER...INSTABILITY IS GREATER
WITH BOUNDARY LAYER DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S...HOWEVER FORECAST
SOUNDINGS SHOW CONSIDERABLE INHIBITION REMAINS AT 00Z...SO LESS
CERTAINTY EXISTS IN THIS AREA FOR STORM COVERAGE...AT LEAST IN
OUR CWA.

GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT THE UPPER TROUGH NOW AFFECTING THE REGION
WILL LIFT NORTHEAST FROM THE CENTRAL ROCKIES...REACHING THE GREAT
LAKES BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THIS WILL INTRODUCE SHORT WAVE
RIDGING ALOFT OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY
WHICH WILL HELP DRIVE A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AREA SOUTH INTO THE
CWA. THIS IN TURN PUSHES THE SURFACE FRONT WELL SOUTH OF OUR
FORECAST AREA RESULTING IN A COUPLE OF DRY DAYS WED-THU.

BY THE END OF THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND...WEAK TROUGHING ALOFT
ONCE AGAIN APPROACHES THE AREA BRINGING SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES IN THE AFTERNOON-EVENING WITH CONTINUED WARM TEMPERATURES.
