AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
1231 AM CDT SAT JUN 18 2011

.AVIATION...06Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU
MOIST UNSTABLE AIR-MASS COMBINED WITH MID-LEVEL LIFT MAINTAINING
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL NORTH OF A COFFEYVILLE-WICHITA-
KINGMAN LINE. THE COMPLEX OF ENHANCED CONVECTION THAT EXTENDED
FROM NEAR NEWTON TO EMPORIA SHOULD MOVE EAST SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT
AND BE INTO SOUTHWEST MISSOURI BY 12Z. REMAINDER OF THE SCATTERED
CONVECTION THOUGH WESTERN INTO CENTRAL KANSAS SHOULD WANE BY 15Z
WITH REDEVELOPMENT IN CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS 18-21Z...SPREADING
INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS BY 00Z.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 634 PM CDT FRI JUN 17 2011/

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

MAIN ISSUE THIS EVENING IS WHEN/IF CONVECTION WILL DEVELOP. AREA IN
THE VICINITY OF KICT NEAR TRIPLE POINT IS THE MOST LIKELY IN THE
SHORT TERM...WHERE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE IS MAXIMIZED. NAM/RUC
TRIES TO BREAK OUT PRECIPITATION ACROSS FLINT HILLS THIS EVENING
WHERE MID LEVEL TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY A DEGREE OR TWO COOLER.
ALSO WATCHING CONVECTION ACROSS CO...WHICH COULD TRACK ALONG I-70
LATER TONIGHT. DAYLIGHT HOURS ON SAT WILL BE RELATIVELY QUIET IN
THE MORNING...BUT QUASI-STATIONARY BOUNDARY WILL BE HUNG UP IN THE
VICINITY OF KICT-KCNU...AND WITH AFTERNOON HEATING...SHOULD SEE
EXTENSIVE CUMULUS AND A FEW STORMS DEVELOP. -HOWERTON

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 332 PM CDT FRI JUN 17 2011/

DISCUSSION...

MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS THE CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION TONIGHT AND
AGAIN THIS WEEKEND.

SYNOPSIS:
A TROUGH SITS OVER THE WEST COAST WITH A COUPLE OF DEEP DISTURBANCES
MOVING OVER THE NORTHERN ROCKIES...WITH MULTIPLE WEAKER DISTURBANCES
MOVING NORTHEAST OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS. AT THE SURFACE A LOW IS
SITTING OVER NORTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA...WITH MOST OF SOUTH CENTRAL AND
SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS IN THE WARM SECTOR.  70+ DEWPOINTS ARE MOVING
NORTHWARD AROUND THE NORTH SIDE OF THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM.  THIS HAS
KEPT SOME OF THE TEMPERATURES IN SOUTHERN AND EASTERN KANSAS IN THE
UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S...WHILE WHERE THE DEWPOINT HAS MIXED
OUT...BEHIND THE DRYLINE TEMPERATURES HAVE SURGED INTO THE LOW
100S.  THIS WARM SECTOR WILL BE THE AREA TO WATCH THIS EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.

TONIGHT:
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE IS MOVING ACROSS KANSAS WHICH WILL BRING
UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT TO THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.  AT THE LOWER
LEVELS...3000-4000 J/KG CAPE WITH 40-50 KTS BULK SHEAR OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL KANSAS WILL BE PLENTIFUL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.  THE ONLY
NEGATIVE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT IS THE CAP FROM THE ELEVATED MIXED
LAYER.  THE LATEST GUIDANCE DOES INDICATE THAT THE CAP IS
WEAKENING...AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT NEAR 22-00Z IS EXPECTED.
THE MAIN AREA OF CONCERN IS SOUTH AND EAST OF THE TURNPIKE...BUT IT
WILL DEPEND ON HOW FAR WEST STORMS INITIATE.  SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS
COULD BE IN THE MIX OF THINGS EARLIER IN THE EVENT BEFORE IT MOVES
EASTWARD TOWARD 06Z...THEN OUT OF THE AREA OVERNIGHT.

SATURDAY - SUNDAY:
DISTURBANCE AFTER DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION...HELPING
TO KEEP THUNDERSTORM CHANCES IN FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD.  THE FRONT
WILL BISECT SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS...NEAR THE TURNPIKE FOR SATURDAY.
FEEL THAT THUNDERSTORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE LATER IN THE
AFTERNOON SATURDAY AS THE CAP WEAKENS...AFTER 21Z ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA. THE TRICKY PART WILL BE WHERE THE BOUNDARY SETS UP...WITH A
POSSIBLE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM STORMS TONIGHT INTERACTING WITH IT.
THIS COULD IMPACT THE LOCATION OF THUNDERSTORMS.

WITH THE BOUNDARY HANGING OUT OVER THE AREA SATURDAY...TEMPERATURES
WILL BE COOLER NORTH OF IT IN CENTRAL KANSAS WITH TEMPERATURES IN
SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS IN THE MID 90S AGAIN.

BY SUNDAY THERE ARE SOME DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN THE GUIDANCE WITH
WHERE THE WARM FRONT WILL BE LOCATED.  THE NAM KEEPS THE FRONT
FURTHER SOUTH OVER SOUTHERN KANSAS...NEAR THE OKLAHOMA
BORDER...WHILE THE GFS PUSHES THE FRONT INTO CENTRAL KANSAS.  THIS
WILL IMPACT THE LOCATION OF ANY THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT DURING THE
AFTERNOON.  HAVE KEPT THE AFTERNOON DRY...WITH POPS INTRODUCED
BEYOND 00Z/MON TO ACCOUNT FOR MORE STOUT MOISTURE TRANSPORT OVER THE
BOUNDARY.

MONDAY - TUESDAY:
THE WARM FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH NORTHWARD...WITH SOME
DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN THE GUIDANCE IN EXACT LOCATION.
HOWEVER...DESPITE THOSE DIFFERENCES THEY SHOW A TREND OF NORTHWARD
MOVEMENT.  THIS WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO SOAR AGAIN ON MONDAY.  A
DEEP TROUGH/STRONG DISTURBANCE WILL APPROACH THE REGION MONDAY AND
WILL SUPPORT SEVERE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FOR LATE IN THE DAY ALONG
THE COLD FRONT AS IT PUSHES EAST.  CONVERGENCE ALONG THE BOUNDARY
WILL NOT BE OVERWHELMING...BUT WITH THE HELP OF THE UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT...LOOKS LIKE STORMS WILL FIRE.

THIS WAVE WILL HELP PUSH THE COLD FRONT OUT OF THE AREA BY TUESDAY
EVENING.  THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ALONG THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
THE DAY TUESDAY...AND THE COOLER AIR BEHIND THE FRONT AND POSSIBLE
CLOUD COVER WILL AID IN KEEPING TEMPERATURES IN THE COOLER 80S.

WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY:
BY WEDNESDAY THE FRONT WILL BE WELL EAST OF THE AREA...AND FEEL ANY
POTENTIAL WRAP AROUND PRECIPITATION WILL BE EAST OF THE AREA AS
WELL.  HAVE GONE AHEAD AND REMOVED ANY CHANCES FOR PRECIP FOR THE
DAY WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  ANOTHER BOUNDARY WILL SET UP
THURSDAY NEAR THE OKLAHOMA/KANSAS BORDER AND COULD BE THE FOCUS OF
THUNDERSTORMS FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS
FEATURE IS LOW...HAVE KEPT SLIGHT CHANCES IN.

OVERALL TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE 80S DURING THIS PERIOD...SLOWLY
INCREASING FROM WEDNESDAY TO FRIDAY.

BILLINGS

AVIATION...18Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU
SEVERAL BOUNDARIES WILL BE AFFECTING THE AREA INTO TONIGHT.
SYNOPTIC COLD FRONT/TROUGH WILL MOVE SOUTHEASTWARD INTO SOUTH
CENTRAL KS BY 00Z WHERE A DRYLINE SHOULD INTERSECT THE FRONT NEAR
THE OKLAHOMA BORDER. A REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM
OVERNIGHT/EARLY AM MCS MAY SET UP FROM SOUTHEAST KS INTO SOUTHERN
MISSOURI BY PEAK HEATING. WITH MID-LEVEL TEMPERATURES VERY
WARM...THINK CAP WILL HOLD INTO MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER THE
NAM AND HRRR MODELS SUGGEST WEAKENING CONVECTIVE INHIBITION BY 00Z
ALONG/E OF THE KS TURNPIKE. A 35 KT SOUTHWESTERLY LOW-LEVEL JET
WILL BE NOSING INTO THAT AREA EAST OF THE TURNPIKE PROVIDING
INCREASED CONVERGENCE THIS EVENING. THINK A FEW STORMS MAY DEVELOP
IN THE 22-01Z TIME FRAME ALONG/E OF THE TURNPIKE. UTILIZING VCTS
AT ICT AND CNU. FURTHER NORTHWEST...RSL/SLN/HUT SHOULD BE ON THE COOL SIDE
OF THE SYNOPTIC FRONT BY 00Z SO NOT EXPECTING THUNDERSTORMS AT
THOSE SITES. SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL BECOME
NORTH-NORTHEASTERLY BEHIND THE FRONT AS IT STALLS OVER SOUTHEAST
KS TONIGHT.
