AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
456 PM MDT FRI JUN 3 2011

.DISCUSSION...
327 PM MDT FRI JUN 3 2011

19Z WATER VAPOR IMAGERY DEPICTS SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE
CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON WITH UPPER LEVEL RIDGE
BUILDING ACROSS THE LOWER MISS VALLEY REGION AND A UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH OFFSHORE FROM NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. AT THE SURFACE A COLD
FRONT WAS LOCATED ROUGHLY FROM BTWN NORTON AND HILL CITY KANSAS
SOUTHWESTWARD TO NEAR TRIBUNE KANSAS. AHEAD OF THIS FRONT TEMPS
WERE IN THE LOWER 90S WITH SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS WHILE BEHIND THE
FRONT TEMPS WERE ONLY IN THE MID/UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S WITH
NORTH/NORTHEAST WINDS. THE PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERN OVER THE NEAR
TERM CONTINUES TO BE PERIODIC CHANCES FOR PRECIP AS RIPPLES OF
ENERGY ROTATE THROUGH THE MEAN SOUTHWEST FLOW.

TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...FRONT WILL BECOME QUASI STATIONARY THIS
EVENING JUST TO THE SOUTH OF THE FA. MEANWHILE A SFC LOW PRESSURE
WILL RIDE ALONG THE FRONT FROM SE COLORADO AND THE FIRST IN A
SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS IS PROGGED TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA
THIS EVENING. BELIEVE THAT STORMS WILL DEVELOP ALONG AND NEAR THE
FRONT AND BEGIN MOVING NORTHEASTWARD. BEST MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY WILL RESIDE ACROSS GENERALLY THE EASTERN HALF OF
FA AND WILL CONTINUE HIGHEST POPS IN THIS AREA. STORMS WILL
INITIALLY BE HIGH BASED SO DESPITE THE FACT THAT STORM MEAN
DIRECTION WILL BE GENERALLY ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY DON/T
EXPECT MUCH OF A STORM-TRAINING ISSUE. STRONG DOWNBURST WINDS WILL
BE THE PRIMARY THREAT WITH THESE STORMS GIVEN HIGH DEWPT
DEPRESSIONS...THOUGH SOME LARGE HAIL CAN/T BE RULED OUT. ONE
POTENTIAL LIMITING FACTOR IN STORM REGENERATION/CONTINUATION IS
THE PROGGED INHIBITION...WHICH LOOKS TO BE ON THE ORDER OF
100-300J OF MUCAPE CINH AS THE EVENING WEARS ON. HAVE LOWERED POPS
SLIGHTLY BUT PRECIP STILL LOOKS TO BE A GOOD BET IN THE EASTERN
HALF TO THIRD OF THE FA. PRECIP SHOULD BECOME A BIT MORE GENERAL
IN COVERAGE OVERNIGHT ACROSS THE NORTHEAST BEFORE COMING TO AN END
NEAR MORNING. SOME INDICATION THAT SHOWERS MAY LINGER BEYOND 12Z
ACROSS FAR EASTERN ZONES BUT WILL KEEP THINGS DRY OUT THAT WAY FOR
NOW AND LET OVERNIGHT SHIFT MONITOR. AS THIS SYSTEM MOVES OFF TO
TH EAST SATURDAY MORNING THE FRONT WILL REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN FA WITH EAST/NORTHEAST WINDS THROUGHOUT THE
DAY. AM A BIT CONCERNED THAT CLOUD COVER WILL REMAIN THROUGH MUCH
OF THE DAY NORTH OF THE FRONT...PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE EASTERN FA.
HAVE CONTINUED PREVIOUS FORECAST TREND OF UNDERCUTTING GUIDANCE
SLIGHTLY TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING THE
NEXT SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO MOVE ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO
AND AROUND THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE. STORMS SHOULD ONCE AGAIN
INITIATE OVER THE PALMER DIVIDE REGION OF COLORADO DURING THE
AFTERNOON WHERE BETTER MOISTURE WILL RESIDE COUPLED WITH LIFT AND
LITTLE IN THE WAY OF CAPPING. THESE STORMS WILL PROGRESS EASTWARD
INTO THE WESTERN PARTS OF THE FA AND AGAIN A FEW OF THESE MAY
BECOME SEVERE.

SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...MODELS CONTINUE TO DEPICT
THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME PATCHY FOG AND WITH CONTINUED UPSLOPE FLOW
WILL GO AHEAD AND LEAVE THIS IN THE ONGOING FORECAST. SUNDAY THE
COLD FRONT BEGINS TO WASH OUT WITH WINDS BECOMING SOUTHERLY ACROSS
THE AREA BY LATE MORNING. WARMED HIGHS UP A BIT SUNDAY PER
GUIDANCE AND EXPECTED H85 TEMPS. YET ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS
PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH THE MEAN FLOW LATE SUNDAY AND THOUGH
MOISTURE DOES APPEAR RELATIVELY MEAGER AT THIS POINT WILL LEAVE
SLIGHT POPS IN FOR LATE SUNDAY ACROSS THE WEST ZONES WITH SFC
CONVERGENCE NOTED IN THAT AREA.

IN THE EXTENDED (MON-THU)...PERIOD BEGINS WITH EXTENDED GUIDANCE
IN GENERALLY GOOD AGREEMENT REGARDING UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING
WESTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTH CENTRAL CONUS WITH CLOSED H5 LOW COMING
ONSHORE OVER NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. MODELS HANDLE THE PROGRESSION OF
THE H5 LOW NORTHEAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES A BIT DIFFERENTLY
BUT WHAT IT BASICALLY MEANS FOR THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS REGION IS
THAT ONCE THE RIDGE AXIS MOVES BY THE AREA ON MONDAY THE REMAINDER
OF THE PERIOD WILL SEE CONTINUED SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WITH A FEW
RIPPLES IN THE FLOW MOVING THROUGH. THE GENERAL QUESTION WITH EACH
OF THE DISTURBANCES WITH REGARD TO PRECIP CHANCES WILL BE MOISTURE
AVAILABILITY. THE FIRST SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THROUGH MONDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING WITH DRY LOW LEVELS BUT WITH SOME INCREASED MID-
LEVEL MOISTURE MAINLY ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO. ADEQUATE
INSTABILITY IS PROGGED TO BE IN PLACE WITH BTWN 1000-1500 J OF
MUCAPE BUT WITH H7 TEMPS OF AROUND 15C-16C EXPECTED COUPLED WITH
MUCAPE CINH OF AROUND 50-100J AS WELL NOT REALLY OVERLY EXCITED
ABOUT STORM DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER AN AREA OF CONVERGENCE AT MID-
LEVELS IS NOTED MAINLY ACROSS SOUTHWEST/EAST CENTRAL COLORADO AND
IF A FEW STORMS CAN GET GOING IN THIS AREA THEY MAY SURVIVE INTO
NORTHEAST COLORADO AND THUS WILL KEEP SLIGHT POPS OUT HERE UNTIL
THINGS BECOME A BIT CLEARER. HAVE CONTINUED TO TREND MAXES UP A
DEGREE OR TWO AS WELL FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS H85 TEMPS OF 29C-
30C CONTINUE TO SUPPORT HIGHS INTO THE MID/UPPER 90S. A COLD FRONT
WILL PUSH ACROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY MORNING LOWERING HIGHS WED AND
PARTICULARLY THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

.AVIATION...
456 PM MDT FRI JUN 3 2011

FOR THE 00Z TAFS...THUNDERSTORMS AND SHOWERS WILL APPROACH THE
TERMINALS THIS EVENING...WHICH COULD LEAD TO BRIEF PERIODS OF
SHIFTING WINDS DUE TO OUTFLOW. THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE
EARLY MORNING...AND AS THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASES...THERE IS A
POSSIBILITY OF MVFR CEILINGS. CONSIDERING THE MODEL SOUNDINGS...HAVE
OPTED TO KEEP SCATTERED CLOUDS AT THIS LEVEL INSTEAD OF CEILINGS.
