AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
1018 PM MST SUN JAN 24 2010

.DISCUSSION...
244 PM MST SUN JAN 24 2010

MAIN FORECAST PROBLEM WILL BE WIND THROUGH TOMORROW. SECONDARY
PROBLEMS WILL BE CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE
WEEK AND RATHER COLD AIR MOVING INTO THE AREA BEGINNING ON WEDNESDAY.
SATELLITE SHOWING THAT FLOW HAS INCREASED IN AMPLITUDE OVER THE LAST
24 HOURS. BROAD/STRONG TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC HAS SHARPENED
UP THE WESTERN RIDGE CLEAR UP INTO THE ARCTIC CIRCLE.

STRONG AND COLD UPPER SYSTEM SYSTEM IS DIGGING INTO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS AND WILL BE THE MAIN PLAYER IN OUR WEATHER THROUGH TOMORROW.
MODELS INITIALIZED FINE AT MID AND JET LEVELS. AT LOW LEVELS...MODELS
INITIALIZED WELL HERE AS WELL. WOULD GIVE THE SLIGHT ADVANTAGE TO
THE ECMWF ON THE SURFACE/LOW LEVEL WINDS...ESPECIALLY AT 850 MB. ON
THE TEMPERATURES...THE NAM DID SLIGHTLY WORSE THAN THE OTHER
MODELS. SINCE NOT TOO DIFFERENT...WILL USE A BLEND OF THE MODELS
WITH REALITY/PERSISTENCE.

TONIGHT/MONDAY...CURRENT WIND ADVISORY WORKING OUT WELL. A FEW
SPOTS HAVE BEEN GUSTING IN THE 44 TO 48 KNOT RANGE. THICKER CLOUDS
COMING IN AGAIN AND ALSO STARTING TO LOSE THE HEATING OF THE DAY.
BELIEVE THAT WE SHOULD STAY SHORT OF 50 KNOTS...HOWEVER A COULD BE
A PLACE OR TWO THAT IT COULD HAPPEN. AS WE LOSE THE HEATING OF THE
DAY...WOULD ANTICIPATE A RAPID DECREASE IN WIND AND FLURRY ACTIVITY.
WHAT IS INTERESTING IS THE MODELS ARE SHOWING A TIGHTENING PRESSURE
GRADIENT DURING THE NIGHT AND WILL BE STRONGER THAN WHAT IS GOING ON
TODAY. ALSO HAVE GOOD 3 HOUR PRESSURE RISES AND MODERATE/STRONG
DOWNWARD MOTION DURING THE NIGHT. BASED ON THE ABOVE WOULD ANTICIPATE
THAT THE WINDS WILL NOT DECOUPLE MUCH. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF WE
STAY BREEZY THROUGH THE NIGHT...AND WOULD KEEP TEMPERATURES FROM
FALLING MUCH.

LIKE THE MID SHIFT AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE WINDS TOMORROW. PRESSURE
GRADIENT...AT LEAST THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY...IS TIGHTER THAN
WHAT WE WILL HAVE TODAY. ALSO LOOK TO HAVE MODERATE TO STRONG
DOWNWARD MOTION THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY ALONG WITH A LOT
MORE SUNSHINE. NAM/GFS SIMILAR IN THEIR WIND SPEEDS THROUGH 700 MB
AND BOTH ACTUALLY HAVE 50 KNOTS AT 850 MB EARLY IN THE DAY IN THE
EASTERN THIRD OF OUR AREA. LAPSE RATES ARE VERY SIMILAR TO TODAYS.
BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SUPPORT GUSTS IN THE 40 TO 45 KNOTS AT KGLD AND
KMCK AND LASTING LONGER FURTHER EAST. LIKE THE WIND GRIDS I
INHERITED...AND THEY CAPTURE THE AREA OF HIGHEST WINDS NICELY BUT AM
CONCERNED WE COULD FLIRT WITH HIGH WIND WARNING CRITERIA GUSTS EARLY
AND ESPECIALLY IN THE EAST. HOWEVER...MAY UP WINDS A FEW KNOTS AT ALL
LOCATIONS.

WILL KNOT ISSUE THE WIND HIGHLIGHT NOW TO AVOID CONFUSION WITH
CURRENT HIGHLIGHT. WILL HIT HARD IN ZONES AND HWO...AND LET THE
EVENING/NIGHT CREW MAKE THE FINAL DETERMINATION. WILL HAVE PLENTY
OF SUN TOMORROW WITH A DRY AIR MASS AND MIXING. CURRENT GRIDS CLOSE
TO LATEST GUIDANCE...AND WILL MAKE LITTLE IF ANY ADJUSTMENTS.

MONDAY NIGHT/TUESDAY...WINDS REALLY DROP OFF QUICKLY AND WILL BE
PRETTY LIGHT BY LATER IN THE NIGHT. THAT COMBINED WITH LOWER
DEWPOINTS AND LESS CLOUD COVER WILL ALLOW MINS TO BE MUCH COLDER.

MODELS STILL SHOWING FRONT BACKDOORING INTO THE AREA. MODELS SHOWING
COLDER AIR NOT TOO FAR EAST OF THE AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON...AND
MAY/PROBABLY WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA. SOME MODEL OUTPUT WOULD SAY
THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN UNTIL AFTER PEAK HEATING TIME. HOWEVER...AM A
LITTLE SKEPTICAL OF THAT AS THESE FRONTS SEEM TO COME IN A LITTLE
FASTER THAN DEPICTED. WILL MAKE THE EASTERN AREAS THE COOLEST AND
TREND TOWARD THE COOLER GUIDANCE THERE.

TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY...MODELS REALLY SHOVE THIS MUCH COLDER AIR
INTO THE AREA DURING THIS PERIOD. HOWEVER...THEY REALLY WAIT TO BRING
THE BRUNT OF IT IN UNTIL AFTER 12Z WEDNESDAY. LOOKING HOW THE
SURFACE WIND/PRESSURE FIELD IS SET UP AND BIAS OF THE MODELS IN
THIS SCENARIO...BELIEVE THE COLD AIR WILL COME IN FASTER AND
STRONGER THAN CURRENTLY DEPICTED. NEW GFS/MAV APPEARS TO HAVE CAUGHT
THIS AS THE NEW MEX HAS DRAMATICALLY DROPPED WEDNESDAY MAXES.

DURING THE DAY WILL BE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE MID/UPPER RIDGE
THAT WILL BE IN ADVANCE OF OUR NEXT SYSTEM. WARM AIR ADVECTION
ALOFT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE DOME OF COLD AIR THAT WILL BE HERE...
WILL CAUSE CLOUDS TO THICKEN UP THROUGH THE DAY. THIS SHOULD ALSO
HELP IN KEEPING MAXES COLD FOR THE DAY. EXPECT ANY PRECIPITATION TO
STILL BE OUT TO THE WEST OF THE AREA.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...MODELS IN CLOSER AGREEMENT FOR
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY PRECIPITATION ALTHOUGH SOME FLIP
FLOPPING HAS OCCURRED. THE ECMWF IS NOW A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH WITH
THE SYSTEM. THE GFS HAS THE PRECIPITATION FURTHER SOUTH. CURRENT
GRIDS HAVE SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE IN SOUTHERN AND WESTERN AREAS...
HIGHEST IN THE SOUTH...AND THAT LOOKS REASONABLE. SOMETHING
INTERESTING. THE NEW CANADIAN CUTS OFF THE SYSTEM OVER NEW MEXICO
WHEREAS THE OTHER MODELS MOVE SYSTEM THROUGH AS AN OPEN WAVE. WILL
GO WITH THE CONSENSUS BUT CANADIAN WOULD MAKE FOR A MUCH BIGGER
PRECIPITATION EVENT. MADE LITTLE IF ANY CHANGES TO CURRENT GRIDS
FOR THIS EVENT. AFTER THIS SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH WILL BE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF UPPER RIDGE AND WILL BE DRY.

ALSO BEHIND THIS LAST SYSTEM...UPPER LOW/VORTEX OVER NORTHEAST
CANADA STARTS MOVING SOUTH. THAT COMBINED WITH THE ABOVE MENTIONED
STRONG WESTERN RIDGE WILL ALLOW MUCH COLDER AIR TO MOVE BACK INTO
THE AREA. PER DISCUSSION ABOVE...COLD AIR WILL BE MOVING IN RIGHT
BEFORE THIS PERIOD. COLD AIR WELL ENTRENCHED ON THURSDAY AND NEW
MEX GUIDANCE NUMBERS ARE COLD. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY THE GFS AND
ECMWF DIFFER IN THEIR PLACEMENT OF THE COLD AIR. THE GFS WANTS TO
SCOUR IT ON FRIDAY WITH THE ECMWF NOT MOVING IT MUCH. GFS LOOKS TOO
FAST CONSIDERING THE STRONG NORTHERLY FLOW ALOFT.

SATURDAY WILL BE TRICKIER AND WILL HAVE A PRETTY TIGHT GRADIENT OVER
THE AREA. BOTH MODELS MOVE THE COLD AIR TO THE EAST WITH THE GFS
FURTHEST EAST. UPPER RIDGE DOES BECOME STRONGER OVER THE AREA. STILL
LIKE THE ECMWF DEPICTION OF THIS. ON SUNDAY WILL TRANSITION INTO A
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AS NEXT SYSTEM DIGS INTO THE SOUTHWEST PORTION
OF THE COUNTRY. ECMWF LOOKS BETTER ON THIS. AS THIS SCENARIO
DEVELOPS...STRONG LEE TROUGH DEVELOPS...PER ECMWF...AND GRADIENT
REALLY TIGHTENS BETWEEN IT AND DEPARTING RIDGE. WILL GET STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS AND WARMER AIR INTO THE AREA AS A RESULT.

THANKS TO ALL FOR THE COLLABORATION.

.AVIATION...
1018 PM MST SUN JAN 24 2010

FOR THE 06Z TAF CYCLE...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THE REST OF
TONIGHT AND MONDAY FOR KGLD AND KMCK. PERIPHERY OF CLOUD SHIELD FROM
THE UPPER LOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL PERSIST AT KMCK. CLEARING
SHOULD EVENTUALLY MOVE INTO KMCK BY MONDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL
INCREASE MONDAY WITH SUSTAINED WIND FROM 25 TO 30 KNOTS WITH GUSTS
UP TO 40 KTS POSSIBLE. THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES MONDAY
AFTERNOON SO WOULD EXPECT DECREASING WIND DURING THE AFTERNOON/EARLY
EVENING.
