18What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Dodge City, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 18, 3:55 PM CDT, 4 hours 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 18, 3:55 PM CDT, 4 hours 24 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS 355 PM CDT SAT JUN 18 2011 .DISCUSSION... DAYS 1-2... A LONGWAVE TROUGH WAS SITUATED ACROSS THE WESTERN UNITED STATES THIS AFTERNOON. ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THIS TROUGH, A WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COOL POOL WAS EJECTING EAST-NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS COLORADO. ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE LONGWAVE TROUGH, A STRONG SHORTWAVE TROUGH WAS DIGGING SOUTHEASTWARD TOWARDS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. A STATIONARY FRONT WAS LOCATED ACROSS NORTHERN OKLAHOMA WITH WEAK UPSLOPE FLOW DEVELOPING ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS. DEWPOINTS WERE VERY HIGH IN THE WARM SECTOR ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN OKLAHOMA. THE MAIN FORECAST PROBLEM FOR TONIGHT IS THUNDERSTORM CHANCES. CONVECTION WAS ALREADY DEVELOPING ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO THIS AFTERNOON IN RESPONSE TO THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND COLD POOL. LOW-LEVEL UPSLOPE FLOW WAS VERY WEAK THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS. THE EDGE OF THE BETTER LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE WAS LOCATED FROM NORTH PLATTE TO MCCOOK TO DODGE CITY AND WAS SLOWLY EDGING WESTWARD. THE NAM SHOWS EASTERLY UPSLOPE FLOW INCREASING DRAMATICALLY THIS EVENING TO 30KT AT 850MB ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS. DESPITE THE WEAK WINDS THIS AFTERNOON, IF STORMS CAN HOLD TOGETHER UNTIL EVENING, THEN THE ENVIRONMENT WOULD BE MUCH MORE FAVORABLE FOR AN ORGANIZED CONVECTIVE CLUSTER PROGRESSING ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PART OF THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. THE HRRR HAS BACKED OFF OF THE MCS SCENARIO. WITH MAINLY WESTERLY MID-LEVEL WINDS, FEEL THAT ANY MCS COULD DEVELOP A COLD POOL AND TURN TO THE EAST-SOUTHEAST AND AFFECT OUR FORECAST AREA. DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE WITH THESE STORMS. LARGE HAIL UP TO GOLFBALL SIZE IS POSSIBLE AS THE STORMS REACH THE RICHER MOISTURE BETWEEN 00 AND 03Z. CYCLOGENESIS WILL COMMENCE IN THE LEE OF THE COLORADO ROCKIES BY SUNDAY MORNING. THE NAM/GFS SHOW THE FRONT OVER OKLAHOMA PUSHING NORTH AS A WARM FRONT INTO NORTHERN KANSAS BY LATE AFTERNOON, WITH THE DRYLINE TRAILING SOUTH FROM THE FRONT INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS. TEMPERATURES WILL BECOME VERY HOT IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE DRYLINE AS THE MID-LEVEL HOT PLUME (+16C AT 700MB) PUSHES DOWNSLOPE ONTO THE LOWER TERRAIN. SO DECIDED TO RAISE TEMPERATURES A FEW DEGREES. ALL OF THE MODELS SHOW THE HIGH-LEVEL JET ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SHORTWAVE TROUGH JUST TO THE NORTH OF OUR FORECAST, AREA WITH LITTLE IN THE WAY OF LARGE SCALE ASCENT OVER SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL KANSAS. I FEEL THAT THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT WILL BE OVER FAR NORTHERN KANSAS AND SOUTHERN NEBRASKA ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT. THIS COINCIDES WITH THE SPC DAY 2 MODERATE RISK. DECIDED TO UPGRADE THE FIRE WEATHER WATCH TO A WARNING FOR THOSE COUNTIES THAT HAVE REMAINED DRY FOR THE MOST PART OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS. DUE TO THE HEAVY RAINS IN SEWARD AND MEADE COUNTIES, DECIDED TO LEAVE THOSE COUNTIES OUT. WINDS COULD REACH CLOSE TO ADVISORY CRITERIA AS MID-LEVEL MOMENTUM MIXES DOWN FROM 600MB. THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS WILL PASS ACROSS WESTERN KANSAS ON MONDAY. THE DAY SHOULD GET OFF TO A VERY WARM START IN OUR SOUTHEASTERN COUNTIES SINCE THE AFTERNOON HIGHS THERE SUNDAY WILL BE NEAR 107F, FOLLOWED BY 20-25KT SOUTHERLY WINDS ALL NIGHT SUNDAY NIGHT. SO I DECIDED TO COMPLETELY IGNORE MOS (USING A COMBINATION OF METEOROLOGY AND EXPERIENCE) AND INCREASE LOW TEMPERATURES TO BETWEEN 75 AND 80F IN OUR FAR SOUTHEAST. THIS NUMBERS ARE BARELY WITHIN THE 5F COLLABORATION TOLERANCE. THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL BE ARRIVING IN DODGE CITY AROUND MID-DAY MONDAY AND IN MEDICINE LODGE BY LATE AFTERNOON. VERY HOT TEMPERATURES CAN AGAIN BE EXPECTED AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT, WITH MUCH COOLER READINGS BEHIND THE FRONT. DAYS 3-7... THE EXTENDED PERIOD STARTS WITH AN UPPER LOW EXITING OUR AREA, FOLLOWED BY A PERIOD OF NORTHWESTERLY DOWNSLOPE FLOW, AND A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE EASTERN ROCKIES REGION BY FRIDAY. AROUND THE BEGINNING OF DAY 3, OR TUESDAY AT 00Z, AN UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM WILL BE JUST ABOUT EXITING WESTERN KANSAS TO THE NORTHEAST. BUT THERE WILL BE STRONG SYNOPTIC LIFT ACROSS OUR EASTERN CWA, AND 30 POPS FOR TRW- WILL COVER THAT. THERE COULD BE A LITTLE WRAP AROUND MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY EARLY TUESDAY, SO 20 TO 30 POPS WILL EXIST ACROSS OUR NORTH END EASTERN CWA. RIGHT NOW, IT IS TOO HARD TO DETERMINE IF AND WHERE ANY SEVERE STORMS WILL OCCUR. WITH THE PATTERN OF LATE BEING VERY WARM SURFACE CONDITIONS AND COLD POOLS TRACKING ACROSS OUR AREA, SEVERE STORMS CAN NOT BE RULED OUT. IT WILL GET INCREASINGLY WARMER EACH DAY PAST TUESDAY, STARTING IN THE MID 80S TUES, WARMING TO THE MID 80S TO LOWER 90S BY THURSDAY, AND THE MID 90S BY SATURDAY. A DRY LINE SHOULD BE FORMING EACH AFTERNOON THU-SAT, SO SMALL POPS WILL BE ACROSS OUR EASTERN AND NORTHERN SECTIONS EACH LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING, TO COVER THE DRY LINE INITIATION POTENTIAL. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL GO THROUGH A SLOW WARMING TREND, STARTING IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S WED, AND WARMING A FEW DEGREES EACH DAY, REACHING THE MID 60S (NW) TO THE LOWER 70S (SE). && .AVIATION... FOR THE MOST PART, THERE WILL BE VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH 02Z. THEN THERE IS A CHANCE FOR MVFR CIGS ASSOCIATED WITH THUNDERSTORMS AT HYS AND GCK, GENERALLY IN THE BKN050CB RANGE. THERE IS JUST A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR STORMS TO MAKE IT TO DDC, AFTER 03Z AND IN THE SAME BKN050CB CIG CATEGORY. THESE STORMS WILL BE HIGH BASED IF THEY OCCUR, AND WILL COULD PRODUCE SOME ISOLATED STRONG CONVECTIVE WINDS. AFTER 06Z, THE CHANCE FOR CONVECTION GREATLY DIMINISHES. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
