AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
1125 PM MDT SUN APR 10 2011

.SHORT TERM... (TONIGHT - WEDNESDAY)
200 PM MDT SUN APR 10 2011

SHORTWAVE TROUGH AXIS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT.
RAIN SHOWERS HAVE STRUGGLED TO HOLD TOGETHER THROUGH THE
DAY...BATTLING DRY AIR IN THE LOW LEVELS RESULTING FROM DOWNSLOPING
WESTERLY WINDS. CERTAINLY THERE WILL BE SOME AROUND BUT THE 20-30
POPS OFFERED BY STATISTICAL GUIDANCE LOOKS ABOUT RIGHT. SHORTWAVE
RIDGE WILL FOLLOW ON MONDAY WITH CLEARING SKIES AND TEMPERATURES
WARMING INTO THE 60S. FALLING HEIGHTS ON TUESDAY AHEAD OF THE NEXT
SYSTEM WILL IN LEE TROUGH DEVELOPING IN EASTERN COLORADO AND STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS IN THE FORECAST AREA. WARMING MID LEVELS AND SLIGHT
DOWNSLOPE COMPONENT TO THE SURFACE WINDS WILL AID IN STRONG SURFACE
HEATING AND HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL APPROACH 80 DEGREES IN MANY
LOCATIONS. MIXING HEIGHTS TO 700MB SHOULD ALLOW SURFACE DEW POINTS
TO FALL INTO THE TEENS AND 20S. THE RESULT WILL BE ANOTHER EXTREME
FIRE WEATHER DAY. COORDINATED WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES FOR A FIRE
WEATHER WATCH. A VERY WEAK SHORTWAVE IS NOTED IN THE VORTICITY
FIELDS TUESDAY NIGHT WHICH WILL PUSH THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE
TROUGH/COLD FRONT THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA BY 12Z WEDNESDAY.
ANOTHER WINDY BUT COOLER DAY WITH HIGHER DEW POINTS SHOULD PRECLUDE
FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS ON WEDNESDAY.

THE NEXT BEST CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION LOOKS LIKE WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
LOW LEVEL UPSLOPE WINDS ARE FORECAST TO DEVELOP BELOW 800MB WHICH
WILL MOISTEN THE SURFACE LAYER. A SHORTWAVE COMING OVER THE TOP WILL
CONTRIBUTE TO SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST PHASE
WILL BE PROBLEMATIC. THERE WILL BE AN ELEVATED WARM LAYER NEAR 750MB
RANGING FROM +1 IN THE WEST TO +4 IN THE EAST...WHICH SHOULD MELT
MOST OF THE ICE IN THE COLUMN...WHILE SURFACE WET BULBS WILL BE JUST
ABOVE FREEZING. STILL SEVERAL DAYS OUT AND THERMAL PROFILE WILL
LIKELY CHANGE...SO WILL KEEP IT SIMPLE WITH A RAIN/SNOW MENTION
WHERE WARM LAYER TEMPERATURES ARE LOWER THAN +3...WHICH IS MOST OF
THE WESTERN HALF. HOWEVER...LITTLE IF ANY ACCUMULATION WOULD OCCUR
WITH THE SURFACE TEMPERATURES ABOVE FREEZING.

.LONG TERM... (THURSDAY - SUNDAY)
200 PM MDT SUN APR 10 2011

SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION ON THURSDAY BRINGING A
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORM. THAT SYSTEM IS
FORECAST TO CUT OFF AND DEEPEN TO THE EAST ON FRIDAY. IT WILL BE
WINDY AND COOL ON THE BACKSIDE UNDER SUBTLE SHORTWAVE RIDGING. THE
UPPER FLOW BECOMES ZONAL TO SLIGHTLY NORTHWEST FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE PERIOD SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. WEAK EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE TROUGHS
COULD RESULT IN SLIM CHANCES FOR SHOWERS...BUT NOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE
TO WARRANT MORE THAN 10 POPS ATTM. TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY WARM
TO NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL.

024

.AVIATION...
1123 PM MDT SUN APR 10 2011

FOR THE 06Z TAFS...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD.
SKIES WILL CONTINUE TO CLEAR THROUGH THE NIGHT. ONCE MIXING
BEGINS...WINDS WILL BECOME GUSTY INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTERNOON
WITH LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS AFTER THAT.
