AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
329 PM CDT SUN JUN 19 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
H5 LOW OVER THE MARITIMES WITH WITH RIDGING INTO THE GREAT
LAKES AND A CLOSED LOW OVER ALBERTA WITH DEEP TROUGH INTO THE
GREAT BASIN. JET STREAK ROUNDING THE TROUGH INTO THE NEBRASKA
PANHANDLE AND ASSOCIATED PRECIPITATION ECHOES ALONG WEST TO EAST 800H
BOUNDARY. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OVER NORTHWEST SOUTH DAKOTA AND
DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE OVER EASTERN COLORADO.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND WET IN THE NEAR TERM. MODELS ARE HAVING
SOME PROBLEMS WITH FOCUS AREA FOR CONVECTION IN THE NEAR TERM. NAM
PUSHES FOCUS NORTH INTO THE DAKOTAS WHILE GFS HOLDS BACK WITH
FOCUS OVER SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA AND THEN SHIFTING IT NORTH INTO THE
NEBRASKA SANDHILLS WITH THE WARM FRONT THROUGH THE EVENING AND
INTO THE DAKOTAS MONDAY MORNING. SURFACE PLOT AND MSAS SUPPORTS
SPLIT SURFACE LOW AT THE MOMENT. AS THE TROUGH MOVES OUT OF THE
ROCKIES AND ONTO THE PLAINS LOW OVER EASTERN COLORADO WILL DEEPEN
AND BE THE DOMINATE FOCUS FOR CONVECTION MORE CLOSELY MIRRORING
THE GFS SOLUTION. WILL TREND TOWARDS THIS MODEL ESPECIALLY WITH
THE QUANTITATIVE PRECIPITATION FORECAST. PWS ON THIS MORNINGS
SOUNDING 0.94 AND 1.27 AT KOAX. STRONG WESTERLY COMPONENT TO
MOISTURE ADVECTION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...GFS PWS
INCREASING TO AROUND 1.5 INCHES WHICH IS 99TH PERCENTILE FOR ALL
TIME PWS AND ABOVE 2 STANDARD DEVIATIONS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.
STORM MOTION 270 AT 9KTS. BUFKIT SOUNDINGS FOR WESTERN NEBRASKA
SHOWING SIMILAR VALUES WITH SLOW STORM MOTIONS GOOD SET UP FOR
HEAVY RAIN. CAPE ON THIS MORNINGS SOUNDING 3000J/KG WITH SB LIS
-8. TRIPLE POINT LOOKS TO BE INITIALLY OVER NORTHWEST KANSAS
SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA THIS AFTERNOON WITH INVERTED TROUGH ACROSS
WESTERN NEBRASKA INTO BLACKHILLS. LARGE HAIL DAMAGING WINDS AND
VERY HEAVY RAIN WITH STORMS FURTHER NORTH ACROSS WESTERN NEBRASKA.
THE BEST HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL WILL COME THROUGH THE DAY MONDAY AS
THE SURFACE LOW AND THE UPPER LOW BECOME STACKED OVER WESTERN
NEBRASKA WITH FOCUS ON WESTERN NEBRASKA SANDHILLS. THIS WILL BE
OVER PORTIONS OF THE NORTH PLATTE RIVER BASIN BUT WITH REDUCTIONS
IN CFS FROM KINGSLEY SHOULD BE A WASH BUT SEE HYDROLOGY SECTION
FOR MORE DETAILED DISCUSSION. WINDS WILL BECOME A CONCERN MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED FOR AN ADVISORY. SYSTEM
WILL SHEAR OUT THROUGH NORTHEAST NEBRASKA TUESDAY WITH SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUING OVER NORTHERN AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.

IN THE EXTENDED SLOW MOVING UPPER SYSTEM MOVES TO THE EAST AWAY
FROM FORECAST AREA. SOME WRAPAROUND SHOWERS AND CLOUDS MAY LINGER
ESPECIALLY OVER THE NORTHEAST FORECAST AREA. THURSDAY RIDGING
RETURNS TO THE NORTHERN PLAINS WITH TEMPERATURES RETUNING TO
NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. A STALLED OUT BOUNDARY ALONG THE
EASTERN PLAINS OF COLORADO AND WYOMING WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WITH SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
MOVE THROUGH THE RIDGE AND EVENTUALLY A STRONGER SYSTEM MOVES
ACROSS THE DAKOTAS THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND BRINGS BETTER CHANCES
FOR PRECIPITATION TO WESTERN NEBRASKA SUNDAY. WEAK RIDGE BUILDS
BACK IN THE FIRST PART OF THE WORK WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...
SEVERAL ROUNDS OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAN BE EXPECTED
THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT FOR BOTH THE LBF AND VTN FLIGHT TERMINALS.  AN
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL SLOWLY EJECT EAST FROM THE INTER MOUNTAIN
WEST TOWARD THE GREAT PLAINS.  AIDED BY STRONG UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT...SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL DEEPEN OVER EASTERN COLORADO
WHICH IN TURN WILL FORCE A WARM FRONT NORTHWARD OVER SOUTHERN
NEBRASKA.  STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER TWO REGIONS...FIRST
ALONG THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF EASTERN COLORADO/WYOMING...AND THE
SECOND AREA ALONG THE SURGING WARM FRONT.  STRONG WIND AND VERY
LARGE HAIL WILL REMAIN THE PRIMARY THREAT...HOWEVER ISOLATED
TORNADOES CANNOT BE RULED OUT...ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF THE LBF
TERMINAL.  FOR THE TAF FORECAST...GENERALLY FOLLOWED THE GUIDANCE OF
THE NAM SOLUTION WHICH INITIALLY DEVELOPS STORMS ACROSS THE WEST AS
EARLY AS 21Z...WITH FURTHER DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE WARM FRONT NEAR/BY
00Z.  THE INITIAL STORMS WILL CONGEAL INTO A EASTWARD PROPAGATING
MCS WITH VERY STRONG ERRATIC WIND EXPECTED. OTHER STORMS/MCS LOOK TO
PUSH EAST OUT OF EASTERN COLORADO OVERNIGHT...POSSIBLY AFFECTING
BOTH THE LBF AND VTN TERMINALS...SO WILL ADD THE MENTION OF
ADDITIONAL STORMS TO THE ONGOING TAF FORECAST. SEVERE WIND WITH
HAIL AND VERY HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE DURING THE 06Z TO 12Z
TIMEFRAME WITH THIS SECOND COMPLEX OF STORMS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
HEAVY RAIN IS POSSIBLE TONIGHT AND THEN AGAIN DURING THE
MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT TIMEFRAME. THE 19.12Z NAM AND GFS SOLUTIONS
CONTINUE TO INDICATE A 3 TO 4 INCH RAIN CENTER ACROSS WESTERN AND
NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...WITH THE NAM TARGETING THE NORTH PLATTE AND
PLATTE RIVER CONFLUENCE NORTHEAST THROUGH SOUTHERN HOLT COUNTY.  GFS
HAS THE RAIN CENTER FURTHER WEST AND NORTH...GENERALLY WEST OF LAKE
MCCONAUGHY NORTH THROUGH WESTERN CHERRY COUNTY.  THE NAM REMAINS
SLIGHTLY FURTHER SOUTH WITH THE OVERALL PROGRESSION OF THE
SYSTEM...WITH THE GFS STACKING THE SYSTEM JUST NORTH OF LINCOLN
COUNTY.  REGARDLESS...A HEAVY RAIN CENTER WILL PRESENT ITSELF
SOMEWHERE OVER NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...WHICH COULD EXACERBATE RIVER
FLOODING FURTHER AS HIGH WATER LEVELS CONTINUE DUE TO LATE SEASON
SNOW MELT. THE NEED FOR A FLOOD/FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE
REEVALUATED LATER TODAY OR TONIGHT.

ONE FINAL HYDRO CONCERN...NORTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE LATE MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...WITH GUST POTENTIAL OF GREATER THAN 25KTS.
WITH LAKE MCCONAUGHY AT BANKFULL...LARGE WAVES WILL DEVELOP ALONG
THE LONG FETCH OF THE LAKE...WHICH COULD CAUSE ISSUES FOR SMALL
BOATS AND TRAFFIC ALONG THE DAM.

&&

.LBF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...TORNADO WATCH UNTIL

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF WESTERN AND
NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS ISSUED A PUBLIC SEVERE WEATHER
OUTLOOK WHICH INCLUDES SOUTHWESTERN AND SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA.

THERE IS A MODERATE RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON
AND TONIGHT ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN AND SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...WHICH
INCLUDES THE INTERSTATE 80 CORRIDOR. A WARM FRONT IS EXPECTED TO
LIFT NORTH INTO SOUTHWESTERN NEBRASKA AND UP INTO PANHANDLE
PROVIDING FOCUS FOR STORM DEVELOPMENT AFTER 4 PM CDT. STORMS
DEVELOPING ALONG THE FRONT MAY BE CAPABLE OF VERY LARGE
HAIL...WIND DAMAGE AND ISOLATED TORNADOES. STORM MOTION IS
EXPECTED TO BE NORTHEAST AT 15 MPH.

TONIGHT...THE WARM FRONT STRENGTHENS ACROSS SOUTHERN NEBRASKA AND
STORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT AND MOVE NORTHEAST
INTO NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA PRODUCING LARGE OR VERY LARGE HAIL.
ALSO THE THREAT OF WIND DAMAGE WILL INCREASE AS THE STORMS CONGEAL
INTO A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX THAT WILL PUSH EAST ACROSS THE STATE.

TOTAL RAINFALL TODAY AND TONIGHT OF UP 1 AND 1/2 INCHES COULD
PRODUCE MINOR FLOODING...ESPECIALLY IN URBAN AREAS AND IN AREAS
THAT HAVE RECEIVED RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL.   LOCAL AMOUNTS HIGHER
WITH STRONGEST STORMS COULD PRODUCE FLOODING IN SOME AREAS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING IS POSSIBLE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. AN
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE COULD DEEPEN ACROSS SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA
AND TRACK SLOWLY NORTH PRODUCING A 3 TO 5 INCH HEAVY RAIN CENTER
ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN NEBRASKA INCLUDING LINCOLN COUNTY. THE NEED
FOR A FLOOD OR FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE EVALUATED LATER TODAY OR
TONIGHT.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE NEEDED TODAY ALONG AND SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 80 AND POSSIBLY IN THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE FROM AROUND
3 PM CDT THROUGH 9 PM CDT. ALL SPOTTERS ARE ASKED TO REPORT SEVERE
HAIL...WIND AND TORNADOES TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN NORTH
PLATTE.
