AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
354 PM CDT FRI OCT 7 2011

.SHORT TERM...LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH DAYTIME SATURDAY. THE
PARAMOUNT ISSUE IS THE THREAT FOR STRONG/SEVERE STORMS DURING THE
NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...AND THE FIRST OF POTENTIALLY SEVERAL ROUNDS OF
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.

AS OF 2015Z...THE FIRST FAIRLY ISOLATED...FAST-MOVING STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS OF THE DAY HAD ALREADY FIRED UP ALONG A NARROW
CORRIDOR FROM FROM NEAR NEAR PHILLIPSBURG TO GRAND ISLAND...MOVING
NORTH-NORTHEAST AT AROUND 45 MPH. ALTHOUGH THIS CONVECTION HAS
FIRED EARLIER THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT...THE OVERALL SYNOPTIC AND
MESOSCALE STORY REMAINS LARGELY UNCHANGED. 20Z OBJECTIVE SFC
ANALYSIS PLACES A ROUGHLY 990MB LOW NEAR THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE
ND/MT BORDER...WITH THE EFFECTIVE SURFACE TROUGH/COLD FRONT
STRETCHING SOUTH ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL/WESTERN NEB...VERY CLOSE TO
THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE CWA. GUSTY SOUTH WINDS CONTINUE ACROSS
NEARLY THE ENTIRE CWA IN THE TIGHTENED PRESSURE GRADIENT EAST OF
THE TROUGH AXIS...WITH SUSTAINED SPEEDS COMMONLY 20-25 MPH...AND
LOCALLY HIGHER. ALTHOUGH IT HAS BEEN FAIRLY MARGINAL THROUGH THE
DAY...STRUGGLING TO ACHIEVE 30 MPH SUSTAINED SPEEDS...WILL LET THE
WIND ADVISORY ACROSS 4 OF THE KS COUNTIES RIDE FOR NOW.
ALOFT...LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND SHORT TERM MODEL DATA
DEPICTS A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED TROUGH ACROSS THE WESTERN CONUS...WITH
ONE CLOSED LOW EXITING ND INTO CANADA...AND THE PRIMARY UPSTREAM
ONE OF INTEREST CENTERED NEAR THE 4 CORNERS REGION. IN BETWEEN A
ROUGHLY 110KT H3 JET EXTENDS BETWEEN THESE TWO SYSTEMS.

THE GENERAL SCENARIO IS FOR STORMS TO CONTINUE DEVELOPING INTO
THE EARLY EVENING HOURS MAINLY ALONG THE ALREADY-DEFINED
SOUTHWEST-NORTHEAST CORRIDOR FOCUSED ACROSS THE CENTRAL CORRIDOR
OF THE CWA. PER THE 12Z 4KM WRF-NMM EXPLICIT REFLECTIVITY...STORMS
WILL CONTINUE DEVELOPING AND RACING NORTHEAST...WITH THE PRIMARY
THREATS CONSISTING OF DAMAGING WINDS/HAIL. HOWEVER...ANY STORM
THAT CAN REMAIN DISCRETE FOR A MODEST PERIOD OF TIME COULD TRY
PUTTING DOWN A BRIEF TORNADO...ESPECIALLY TOWARD SUNSET AND
THEREAFTER AS LOW LEVEL 0-0.5 KM CONTINUES TO INCREASE INTO AT
LEAST THE 20-25KT RANGE. OTHERWISE...MULTIPLE STORM MERGERS SHOULD
RESULT IN A GRADUAL OR POTENTIALLY FAIRLY QUICK TRANSITION TO A
QUASI-LINEAR/LINEAR MODE GIVEN THAT DEEP LAYER SHEAR VECTORS ARE
ORIENTED LARGELY PARALLEL TO THE INITIATING LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY. AT
LEAST FOR THE FIRST SEVERAL HOURS...STORMS WILL REMAIN FAIRLY
CLOSELY TIED TO THE NARROW INITIATING CORRIDOR...BUT WITH TIME
SHOULD EXPAND OFF TO ESPECIALLY THE NORTH AND WEST...POSSIBLE
DEVELOPING ALONG OUTFLOW. ALTHOUGH ISOLATED ACTIVITY COULD DEVELOP
EAST OF THE CURRENT CORRIDOR IN AN ENVIRONMENT FEATURING A WEAK
CAP AND 1000-1500 J/KG AT ANY TIME...THE OVERALL THINKING IS THAT
MUCH OF THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE CWA WILL REMAIN STORM
FREE...POTENTIALLY THROUGH THE NIGHT. THIS IS LARGELY IN RESPONSE
TO THE STEERING FLOW ALOFT TURNING MORE MERIDIONAL AS THE
SOUTHWEST CONUS CLOSED LOW LIFTS NORTHEAST TOWARD THE NM/CO
BORDER...FOCUSING CONVECTION FARTHER WEST.

AFTER DARK TONIGHT...THE LATEST TREND FROM THE 18Z NAM IS TO FOCUS
MOST OF THE CONVECTION ACROSS THE NORTHWEST 1/4 OF THE CWA...AND
EVEN WEST OF THE CWA ALTOGETHER. STAY TUNED...AS FUTURE UPDATES
THIS EVENING COULD NECESSITATE A CONSIDERABLE LOWERING OF POPS
ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST 1/2.

FOR THE DAYTIME HOURS SATURDAY...MAINTAINED HIGH 70-80 POPS FROM
INHERITED FORECAST...WITH ONLY MINOR TWEAKING. HOWEVER..WANT TO
EMPHASIZE THAT THE DAY IS BY NO MEANS A SURE WASHOUT FOR ALL
AREAS...AS SHOWERS/STORMS SHOULD GRADUALLY EXPAND EASTWARD ACROSS
THE CWA FROM WEST TO EAST...WHILE STREAMING SOUTH TO NORTH.
ALTHOUGH NOT ANTICIPATING A MAJOR SEVERE THREAT WITH INSTABILITY
STUNTED BY CONSIDERABLE CLOUD COVER...WILL HAVE TO MONITOR
ESPECIALLY SOUTHWEST ZONES IN THE AFTERNOON AS A MID LEVEL DRY
SLOT COULD TRY WORKING NORTH ALONG THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE
MID LEVEL LOW TRACKING NORTH ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO.

BRIEFLY FOCUSING ON TEMPERATURES...RAISED LOWS TONIGHT A FEW
DEGREES...AND SEVERAL DEGREES IN THE NORTHWEST...TO ACCOUNT FOR
PERSISTENT SOUTH/SOUTHEAST FLOW AND WESTWARD SHIFT OF SYNOPTIC
QUASI-STATIONARY FRONTAL ZONE. DESPITE RAINFALL ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA DURING THE DAY SATURDAY...THE WARMER START AND POTENTIAL FOR
A FEW PEEKS OF AFTERNOON SUN SHOULD KEEP TEMPERATURES FROM FLAT-
LINING ALL DAY...AND ACTUALLY BUMPED UP HIGHS A BIT...AIMING FOR
MID 60S FAR WEST/NORTHWEST...TO MID 70S FAR EAST.

IN CLOSING...KEEP IN MIND THAT DESPITE THE HIGH POPS AND POTENTIAL
RAINFALL AMOUNTS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS...NOT EVERYBODY WILL SEE
STORMS AND HEAVY RAINFALL AT THE SAME TIME...WITH PARTS OF THE
SOUTHEAST CWA POSSIBLY REMAINING HIGH AND DRY UNTIL VERY LATE
TONIGHT OR EVEN WELL INTO THE DAY ON SATURDAY. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
WILL LIKELY VARY CONSIDERABLY OVER SMALL AREAS...AND SOME AREAS
ASSIGNED VERY HIGH POPS COULD GO DRY FOR HOURS. CERTAINLY OVER THE
COURSE OF THE ENTIRE WEEKEND THOUGH...PARTS OF THE CWA COULD TALLY
IN EXCESS OF 3 INCHES OF RAIN...AND IT WILL RAIN AT SOME POINT.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.  THE MAIN CONCERN
WILL BE THE CHANCES OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. THE START OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL BEGIN WITH A LARGE
TROUGH/LOW AT H5 ACROSS THE ROCKIES WHILE HIGH PRESSURE SITS
ACROSS THE NORTHEAST UNITED STATES. AT THE SURFACE...A WEAK LOW
WILL BE LOCATED IN WESTERN KANSAS/EASTERN COLORADO WITH A FRONT
STRETCHING NORTHWARD OUT OF THE LOW INTO PARTS OF CENTRAL
NEBRASKA. THE H5 LOW/TROUGH WILL NOT MAKE MUCH PROGRESS EAST
SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...BUT DOES BEGIN TO ACCELERATE SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY. THIS WILL KEEP RAIN CHANCES ACROSS THE REGION
THROUGH THE WEEKEND INTO MONDAY...HOWEVER TRYING TO NAIL DOWN THE
TIMES OF GREATER VERSUS LESSER CHANCES WILL BE THE CHALLENGE. THE
07.12Z NAM AND GFS DIFFER IN THEIR HANDLING OF THE SMALLER SCALE
PERTURBATIONS THAT PIVOT AROUND THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL LOW...BUT THE
OVERALL MESSAGE FROM THE MAJORITY OF MODEL SOLUTIONS IS THAT THE
WEEKEND INTO MONDAY SHOULD BE FAIRLY WET. WILL CONTINUE TO CARRY
HIGH CHANCE...TO AT TIME LIKELY POPS WHICH WILL PROBABLY NOT BE
HIGH ENOUGH AT TIMES...BUT WITHOUT GREATER CONFIDENCE IN THE
SMALLER SCALE WAVE PASSAGES DID NOT WANT TO BOOST INTO THE
CATEGORICAL POP RANGE YET. THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY IN
PLACE TO KEEP AT LEAST ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST
THROUGH THE MONDAY...HOWEVER DO NOT EXPECT THERE TO BE MUCH OF A
SEVERE WEATHER THREAT. THINK THE MAIN ISSUE WILL BE THE
POSSIBILITY OF HEAVY RAINFALL...AND THAT IS ALREADY WELL COVERED
IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

THE MAIN UPPER TROUGH/LOW LIFTS ACROSS THE REGION ON MONDAY...WITH
THE MAIN RAIN CHANCES SHIFTING EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA FOR MONDAY
NIGHT.  ANOTHER MID LEVEL WAVE ARRIVES FOR TUESDAY WHICH WILL BRING
ANOTHER CHANCE OF RAIN...BUT THIS WAVE SHOULD BE A FAIRLY QUICK
HITTER.  AN H5 RIDGE BUILDS BACK ACROSS THE WESTERN UNITED STATES
AND SHIFTS INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS FOR THE END OF THIS WEEK.  THAT
WILL KEEP IT DRY FROM WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND BEYOND.  REGARDING
TEMPERATURES...HIGHS SHOULD BE FAIRLY SEASONABLE MOST OF THE
PERIOD...THOUGH THEY WILL LIKELY START OFF A LITTLE ON THE COOL
SIDE...ESPECIALLY ON SUNDAY WITH DUE TO THE RAIN AND CLOUDS THAT
WILL COVER THE REGION.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1251 PM CDT FRI OCT 7 2011/

AVIATION...18Z KGRI TAF. ITS GOING TO BE AN ACTIVE 24 HOURS
ACROSS THE GENERAL KGRI AREA...AS NUMEROUS SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
ARE ANTICIPATED...WITH THE BEST CHANCES FOCUSED LATE THIS
AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING...AND THEN AGAIN OVERNIGHT.
GIVEN LINGERING UNCERTAINTY IN THE EXACT PLACEMENT AND INTENSITY
OF STORMS...OPTED TO LEAVE THUNDERSTORM DETAILS TO A MINIMUM
BEYOND THE FIRST 7 HOURS...AND WILL DEFER TO LATER UPDATES TO
INSERT POSSIBLE PREVAILING SHRA OR TSRA GROUPS OR ADDITIONAL TEMPO
GROUPS. IF ANY STORMS DO IMPACT THE TERMINAL...SEVERE WEATHER IN
THE FORM OF STRONG WINDS/HAIL ARE NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION...ALONG
WITH CEILING/VISIBILITY REDUCTIONS INTO AT LEAST MVFR
TERRITORY.FOR THE FINAL 6 HOURS OF THE PERIOD ON SATURDAY
MORNING...WENT WITH A HIGH END MVFR PREVAILING CIG...BUT THIS
COULD ULTIMATELY NEED LOWERED/RAISED A BIT. WIND
WISE...SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS GUSTING AT LEAST 25-30KT WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...WITH GUSTS TO AT LEAST 20KT
PERSISTING THROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT. AGAIN...STAY TUNED FOR
PLENTY OF FINE TUNING DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS AS THUNDERSTORM
COVERAGE/PLACEMENT IS BETTER REFINED.
