Area forecast discussion, May 30, 2:32 PM CDT, 2 hours 31 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
232 PM CDT MON MAY 30 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A TROUGH OF SURFACE LOW PRESSURE EXTENDS FORM SE COLORADO INTO
EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA. DEEPEST LOW PRESSURE SHOULD FOCUS NEAR OR
SOUTH OF CUSTER COUNTY. TEMPS IN THE MID/UPPER 80S EAT OF SURFACE
FRONT...WHILE TO THE WEST MID 60S TO LOW 70S PREVAIL. LINE OF
TOWERING CUMULUS ALONG FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM NEAR NORTH
PLATTE THROUGH BREWSTER...BASSETT AND SPRINGVIEW. STORMS JUST
INITIATING AT 1930Z. THIS IS A PRECURSOR TO SEVERE STORM DEVELOPMENT
THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM DISCUSSION (THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)...

THIS EVENING...SURFACE BASED STORMS LIKELY TO BE WELL ROOTED EAST OF
A LINE FROM NEAR BRADY THROUGH AINSWORTH AND SPRINGVIEW IN VICINITY
OF SFC FRONT STRETCHED ACROSS THE REGION. DISCRETE STORM MOTION
EARLY EVENING TO TRANSITION QUICKLY TO A SQUALL LINE AS COLD FRONT
GET STRONG PUSH FROM THE WEST. TRAINING STORM ECHOES LIFTING
NORTHEAST WILL POSE A RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING UNTIL LATE
EVENING...WHEN CONVECTION SHOULD EXIT FAR EASTERN COUNTIES. THERE IS
AN ENHANCED RISK FOR LARGE HAIL AND EVEN AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO.
LOCATIONS WHERE A CORRIDOR OF BACKED LOW LEVEL FLOW NORTH OF MAIN
SURFACE LOW FORECAST IN CUSTER COUNTY SHOWED AREAS IN CUSTER COUNTY
AND COUNTIES TO THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST OF CUSTER COUNTY NORTHEAST
MOST AT RISK.

TUESDAY...DRY WITH BREEZY WEST WINDS AND A MAINLY SUNNY SKY AND MILD
TEMPS IN THE MID/UPPER 70S. DEWPOINTS LOWERING TO THE MID 30S/LOWER
40S WILL BRING AN INCREASED FIRE DANGER WITH LOWEST RH OF 20 TO 30
PERCENT.

TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY/WEDNESDAY NIGHT...PRECIPITABLE WATER (PWS)
VALUES INCREASE TO 0.75 TO 1.25 INCHES BY 12Z WEDNESDAY. GFS/NAM IN
GOOD AGREEMENT WITH CONVECTION DEVELOPING LATE TUESDAY NIGHT ACROSS
SWRN NEBR. PWS INCREASE TO 1 TO 1.5 INCHES BY LATE WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON. MODERATELY UNSTABLE WITH SBCAPES FROM 1500 TO 3500 J/KG.
HIGHS MID 80S TO NEAR 90. POTENTIAL FOR STRONGEST CONVECTION BY
EVENING AS BACKED LOW LEVEL FLOW TO INCREASE HELICITY VALUES FOR
ROTATING STORMS WITH DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 35 TO 45 KTS.

THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT...THURSDAY WILL LIKELY BE THE HOTTEST DAYS
IN THE NEXT 7 DAYS. UPPER RIDGE BREAK DOWN AS TROUGH MOVES INTO
INTERMOUNTAIN WEST. GOING HIGHS FROM 88 TO 95 LOOK APPROPRIATE.
THERE SHOULD BE AT LEAST ISOLATED STORMS POSSIBLE THURSDAY NIGHT.

.EXTENDED DISCUSSION (FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...

AN UPPER TROUGH LIFTING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS WILL BRING A
COOLDOWN FRIDAY BEHIND A COLD FRONT. HIGHS WILL STILL MANAGE TO
REACH THE UPPER 70S NORTHWEST WITH MID 80S SOUTHEAST. UPPER RIDGE
WILL BUILD BACK INTO THE SRN/CNTRL PLAINS AND INTERMOUNTAIN REGION
THROUGH MONDAY IN RESPONSE TO A CLOSED LOW DIGGING INTO NRN
CALIFORNIA. A HEATUP AGAIN IN STORE BY SUNDAY WITH 85 TO 90 AND
UPPER 80/LOWER 90S POSSIBLE BY MONDAY.  MOISTURE TRAJECTORIES STILL
INDICATE MAINLY NOCTURNAL CONVECTION FAVORED THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT
IN SWRLY FLOW ALOFT ACROSS NEW MEXICO NORTHEAST ACROSS COLORADO INTO
KANSAS. THIS PERIOD LOOKS DRY...ALTHOUGH ISOLATED STORMS POSSIBLE.

&&

.AVIATION...
MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS THE NEXT 24 HOURS. A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH
ACROSS THE REGION TONIGHT. NORTHWEST WINDS WILL BE INCREASING BEHIND
THE FRONT...HIGHEST ACROSS SOUTHWEST NEB...GUSTING ABOVE 20 KTS.
AHEAD OF THE FRONT...EARLY THIS EVENING...WILL BE A LINE OF STRONG
TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. THIS LINE IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR EAST OF TAF
SITES...KLBF AND KVTN AND RACE TO THE NORTHEAST. EVERYTHING EXITS BY
MORNING WITH CLEAR VFR SKIES FOR TUESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
WARM TEMPERATURES THIS WEEK IN THE ROCKIES WILL AID IN INCREASING
RUNOFF FROM SNOW MELT. THUS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS THE SOUTH
PLATTE RIVER IS EXPECTED TO RISE...STILL REMAINING WELL BELOW FLOOD
STAGE. MEANWHILE...THE NORTH PLATTE...UPSTREAM OF LAKE
MCCONAUGHY...WILL REMAIN STEADY OR SLIGHTLY FALL UNTIL RELEASES
CHANGE FROM THE WYOMING RESERVOIRS. LAKE MCCONAUGHY WILL CONTINUE TO
INCREASE RELEASES THROUGHOUT THE WEEK...IN A STAIR STEP FASHION.
THIS WILL CAUSE THE NORTH PLATTE RIVER TO RISE OVER THE NEXT WEEK
AND A HALF. BY THURSDAY THE RIVER AT NORTH PLATTE IS EXPECTED TO BE
UP TO 8.0 FEET...WITH AN ADDITIONAL RISE TO 8.1 FEET BY SATURDAY.
FURTHER RISES TO 8.5 FEET BY NEXT WEDNESDAY...JUNE 8...IS
ANTICIPATED BASED ON PLANNED RELEASES FROM THE LAKE...HOWEVER THIS
PLANNED RELEASE SCHEDULE MAY BE ALTERED PENDING SNOW MELT IN THE
MOUNTAINS AND RELEASES FROM THE WYOMING RESERVOIRS.

443 PM CDT MON MAY 30 2011 /343 PM MDT MON MAY 30 2011/

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF VERY LARGE HAIL...WIND
DAMAGE AND TORNADOES...PERHAPS ONE OR TWO STRONG...WILL MOVE
ALONG AND EAST OF HIGHWAY 83. STORM MOTION WILL BE NORTHEAST AT
30 TO 40 MPH. MEANWHILE A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH EAST ACROSS
WESTERN NEBRASKA THIS EVENING...WITH A CHANCE FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS. THE MAIN THREAT WITH THE WESTERN STORMS IS FOR
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO
DIMINISH AFTER MIDNIGHT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

SCATTERED SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. THE AREA OF CONCERN IS GENERALLY ALONG AND EAST OF
HIGHWAY 83. A WARM FRONT IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTH INTO CENTRAL
NEBRASKA WITH STORM DEVELOPMENT LATE IN THE AFTERNOON DURING THE
PEAK HEATING PERIOD. WINDS ALOFT WILL BE STRONG FAVORING STORMS
CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE. STORM MOTION IS EXPECTED
TO BE NORTHEAST AT AROUND 25 MPH.

THURSDAY AND BEYOND...THE NORTH PLATTE RIVER AT NORTH PLATTE WILL
RISE TO 8.0 FEET PRODUCING RECORD FLOODING. WARM WEATHER IN THE
ROCKIES WILL PRODUCE RAPID SNOW MELT THIS WEEK INCREASING THE
RISK OF RISES ON THE NORTH PLATTE RIVER AT LISCO AND LEWELLEN.

DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL BEGIN AFFECTING THE CENTRAL PLAINS
FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. AN APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM FROM THE WEST
COULD SPARK THUNDERSTORMS AND HEAVY RAIN DAILY. THE AREA OF
CONCERN IS SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA AND THE RISK OF FLASH FLOODING MAY
INCREASE NEXT WEEKEND.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS LIKELY THIS EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF
HIGHWAY 183. SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS ALSO POSSIBLE ELSEWHERE AS FAR
WEST AS HIGHWAY 83.
