.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT
STILL SEEING ISO THUNDERSHOWER ACTIVITY ACROSS THE WESTERN CWA.
CURRENT MESOANALYSIS THIS AFTERNOON SHOWS GREATEST INSTABILITY
ACROSS THE FAR WESTERN CWA AND INTO UNR CWA. SHEAR IS DECENT AS
WELL WITH VALUES 30 TO 40 KNOTS. CAP IS WEAKENING AS WELL. ONLY
THING LACKING IS ANY SUBSTANTIAL MID/UPPER LEVEL FORCING.
REGARDLESS...GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY AND SUBTLE SFC
CONVERGENCE FROM NEBRASKA PANHANDLE NORTHWARD TO NEAR
KPHP...SHOULD SEE ISO/WDLY SCT THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS. CU FIELD HAS DEVELOPED OVER
THE PAST COUPLE HOURS IN THIS AREA. AS LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPS
OVERNIGHT...COULD SEE ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE REMAINDER
OF THE FORECAST AREA. ANY CHANCE FOR SVR STORMS THOUGH LOOKS TO
REMAIN ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST CWA SO KEPT MENTION OF T+ IN GRIDS.

THURSDAY WILL BE QUITE INTERESTING AS COLD FRONT WILL BE
APPROACHING THE AREA. PLENTY OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY STREAM
NORTHWARD AHEAD OF THE FRONT ACROSS EASTERN SD INTO WESTERN MN.
BULK SHEAR VALUES LOOK GOOD AS WELL AND WITH THE APPROACH OF THE
SFC FRONT...SHOULD SEE DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS BY LATE
AFTERNOON. WILL LIKELY SEE SVR STORMS AS WELL OVER PORTIONS OF THE
AREA SO INSERTED T+ INTO THE GRIDS FOR THE LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING
HOURS.

ON FRIDAY SFC HIGH BUILDS INTO THE REGION BUT THERE IS A SUBTLE
MID LEVEL WAVE CROSSING THE REGION. EC/NAM SPITTING OUT QPF
WHEREAS OTHER MODELS ARE DRY. FOR NOW HAVE LEFT THE SLIGHT CHANCE
MENTION IN FOR FRIDAY. LEFT JUST SHOWERS AS WELL AS THERE IS
VIRTUALLY NO CAPE AVAILABLE.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
MAIN FCST CHALLENGE FACING THE EXTENDED IS HOW QUICKLY TEMPS WILL
WARM FOR THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK.

COOL CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN CONTROL FOR THE FIRST PART
OF THE EXTENDED...WITH DRY AND SLIGHTLY COOLER THAN NORMAL TEMPS
FOR THE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY PERIOD.

MODELS AGREE ON BUILDING WRN CONUS HEIGHTS FOR THE BEGINNING OF
NEXT WEEK LASTING THROUGH MID WEEK. WITH THE STRONG WAA TAKING
PLACE ALONG WITH LATEST GFS NOW SHOWING A FLATTER 500HPA RIDGE
DEVELOPING ACROSS THE CWA...THE 12Z GFS SHOWS SOME MINOR PCPN
SETTING UP AS WEAK 500HPA/700HPA WAVES ROUND THE TOP OF THE RIDGE.
FOR NOW HAVE REMOVED MENTION OF THE PCPN AS TIMING OF WAVES/TROFS
UNCERTAIN THIS FAR OUT INTO THE FCST.

TEMP WISE...WITH COOLISH HIGH IN PLACE...KEPT INHERITED COOLER
TEMPS FOR THE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY TIME FRAME. LATEST MEX GUIDANCE
HAS REALLY WARMED HIGHS FOR THE FIRST OF NEXT WEEK. HAVE OPTED TO
WARM THINGS A BIT...BUT REMAIN A BIT MORE CONSERVATIVE THAN WHAT
THE LATEST MEX GUIDANCE IS SHOWING.
