What 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 Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 24, 7:00 PM CDT, 1 hour 12 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 24, 7:00 PM CDT, 1 hour 12 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
700 PM CDT TUE MAY 24 2011

.AVIATION...00Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU

ONGOING CONVECTION WILL PERSIST THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE NIGHT WITH
IFR CONDITIONS IN HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION. APPEARS ANOTHER ROUND OF
CONVECTION WILL MOVE THROUGH KHUT/KICT IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS
ASSOCIATED WITH DRYLINE. AFTER ANOTHER SHORT BREAK AND TEMPORARY
CLEARING...APPEARS THAT SCATTERED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORM WILL
DEVELOP IN THE VICINITY OF LOW AND ALSO ALONG COLD FRONT LATER
TONIGHT AND MAINLY TOMORROW.  GENERALLY EXPECTING MVFR CEILINGS
WITH PRECIPITATION NEAR UPPER LOW. -HOWERTON

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 125 PM CDT TUE MAY 24 2011/

DISCUSSION...

EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THE MAIN UPPER WAVE
APPROACHING THE OK PANHANDLE/WESTERN KS WITH SOME MID LEVEL COOLING
CU NOW SHOWING UP OVER FAR SW KS. THIS IS LIKELY THE LEADING EDGE OF
THE COOLER MID LEVEL AIR NEEDED TO ERODE CAP. THEREFORE FEEL THAT
INITIATION ALONG THE DRYLINE COULD OCCUR AS EARLY AS 2 PM WEST OF
THE FORECAST AREA.

DUE TO PLENTY OF INSTABILITY AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR...HIGH END SEVERE
WILL BE LIKELY WITH ANY STORM THIS AFTERNOON. WITH LACK OF SYNOPTIC
LOW LEVEL TURNING...FEEL THE BEST LONGER TRACK TORNADO THREAT SHOULD
INITIALLY BE FOR STORMS THAT CAN RIDE ALONG THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
WHICH EXTENDS FROM MCPHERSON TO NEAR HUTCHINSON. AFTER 22Z THE LOW
LEVEL WINDS BECOME MORE FAVORABLE FOR LONGER TRACK TORS ACROSS MORE
OF THE FORECAST AREA FOR ANY STORM THAT CAN AVOID BEING CONTAMINATED
BY OTHER STORMS. WITH THIS STRONG OF A WAVE COMING OUT LIKELY
GENERATING NUMEROUS STORMS...FEEL STORM INTERACTION SHOULD BE THE
BIGGEST LIMITING FACTOR FOR LONGER TRACK TORS. HOWEVER HOW THIS
PLAYS OUT WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN QUESTION UNTIL THE STORMS ACTUALLY
INITIATE. -LAWSON

TONIGHT...AN ACTIVE SEVERE WEATHER EVENING IS ANTICIPATED AS A
PROGRESSIVE MID/UPPER TROUGH TRANSLATES EAST OUT OF THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES AND INTO THE GREAT PLAINS. AN OUTBREAK OF SEVERE WEATHER
IS ANTICIPATED THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING AS LARGE-SCALE FORCING FOR
ASCENT SPREADS OVER THE AREA. THE COMBINATION OF HIGH INSTABILITY
AND SHEAR SUPPORTS THE PREVIOUS FORECAST WITH A WIDESPREAD
OUTBREAK OF SEVERE WEATHER INCLUDING VERY LARGE HAIL AND A FEW
STRONG TORNADOES THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. DUE TO ANTICIPATED
STORM MOTIONS OF 35-50 KNOTS...THE THREAT FOR WIDESPREAD FLOODING
APPEARS TO BE LIMITED ALTHOUGH LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING WILL BE
POSSIBLE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS PORTIONS
OF SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

MODEL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GFS/NAM CONTINUE OVERNIGHT BUT THE
SEVERE WEATHER THREAT IS EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY SHIFT EASTWARD WITH A
LULL POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS LATE
TONIGHT/EARLY WED BEFORE WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS/ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES INCREASE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE MID/UPPER
TROUGH. LARGE-SCALE FORCING FOR SUBSIDENCE WILL OVERSPREAD THE AREA
WED NIGHT BRINGING DIMINISHING CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION.

THU-FRI...SHORTWAVE RIDGING IS PROGGED TO RETURN TO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS ON THU WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES AND DRY WEATHER
ANTICIPATED. EXPECT RISING TEMPERATURES ON FRI AND WILL MAINTAIN
LOW POPS AS A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES OUT OF THE ROCKIES AND
OVER NORTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS. A SUBTLE RISE IN TEMPERATURES IS
EXPECTED WITH SEASONABLE VALUES IN THE 70S/AROUND 80.

SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF SUPPORT A SIMILAR LARGE-SCALE PATTERN WITH A
MID/UPPER TROUGH OVER THE WEST COAST AND MID/UPPER RIDGING OVER THE
OHIO VALLEY AREA LEADING TO SOUTHWEST MID/UPPER FLOW ACROSS THE
GREAT PLAINS. THIS SHOULD BRING MINIMAL CHANCES FOR WETTING RAINS
WITH MILD TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD.
