AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
307 PM CDT SUN AUG 21 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
H5 ANALYSIS THIS MORNING...REMAINS LARGELY UNCHANGED FROM YESTERDAYS.
ELONGATED HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDED FROM THE FOUR CORNERS...EAST TO THE
NRN CARIBBEAN. A TROUGH EXTENDED FROM HUDSON BAY SWD INTO THE GREAT
LAKES AND A JET STREAK WAS NOTED FROM SERN SASKATCHEWAN TO SRN
MICHIGAN. AT THE SURFACE...THUNDERSTORMS WHICH IMPACTED PORTIONS OF
NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA EARLIER THIS MORNING HAVE DISSIPATED OVER ERN
NEBRASKA OVER THE PAST HOUR. TEMPERATURES AS OF 2 PM WERE IN THE 70S
EAST OF A LINE FROM NORTH PLATTE TO VALENTINE WHERE STRATUS HAS
FINALLY BURNED OFF. WEST OF THIS LINE...TEMPS WERE IN THE LOWER 90S
AT OGALLALA AND IMPERIAL.

.DISCUSSION...

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...MAIN FORECASTING CHALLENGES
ARE PRECIPITATION CHANCES TONIGHT AND TOMORROW...AS WELL AS
TEMPERATURES MONDAY...TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

A SHORTWAVE WILL LIFT FROM COLORADO AND WYOMING...LEADING TO WIDELY
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO
INITIATE ALONG THE DRYLINE WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BE ORIENTED ALONG
HIGHWAY 61. THE OVERALL THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS WILL BE LOW THIS
EVENING...BUT CANNOT BE RULED OUT GIVEN THE DRYLINE TO THE
WEST...DECENT BULK SHEAR AND CAPES APPG 3000 J/KG. GIVEN THE
EXPECTED ELEVATED NATURE OF STORMS...GUSTY WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WILL
BE THE MAIN SEVERE THREATS. AFTER SUNSET...THE SEVERE THREAT WILL
DIMINISH...BUT A LOW LEVEL JET AND DECENT MID LEVEL WAA WILL ALLOW
FOR STORMS TO CONTINUE OVERNIGHT IN THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN ZONES.
HAVE CARRIED POPS OVERNIGHT INTO CENTRAL AND EASTERN AREAS TO
ACCOUNT FOR THIS. FINALLY...THE THREAT FOR FOG CONTINUES
TONIGHT...PARTICULARLY IN THE PLATTE RIVER VALLEY. LOW LEVEL WINDS
WILL BACK TO THE EAST SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT. WITH ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE IN PLACE AND SURFACE WINDS FROM THE ESE...VALLEY FOG LOOKS
PROBABLE OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL BE MORE SOUTHERLY OUTSIDE OF THE
VALLEY...SO THE THREAT FOR FOG WILL BE DIMINISHED.

FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE DRIFTS EAST WITH SRLY
FLOW AND HOT TEMPERATURES FLOWING NORTH INTO THE CWA. HIGHS MONDAY
WILL RANGE FROM THE UPPER 90S IN THE WEST WITH DRIER AIR IN
PLACE...TO THE UPPER 80S IN THE EAST DUE TO ADDTL MOISTURE IN THE
BOUNDARY LAYER AND RESIDUAL CLOUDINESS FROM OVERNIGHT THUNDERSTORMS.
ISOLATED LATE DAY THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE CENTRAL AND EAST
MONDAY AS A DISTURBANCE APPROACHES EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA AND
NORTHEASTERN NEBRASKA. INSTABILITY AND CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL WILL BE
THE HIGHEST IN THE NORTHEAST...WHERE LI'S WILL APPROACH -8 AND SB
CAPES WILL APPROACH 3500 J/KG MONDAY AFTERNOON. WITH THIS IN
MIND...DECIDED TO PAINT THE HIGHEST POPS IN THE NERN ZONES.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...HOTTEST TEMPS OF THE PERIOD WILL ARRIVE ON
TUESDAY. H85 TEMPS OF 30C WILL PUSH EAST TO A BROKEN BOW TO
SPRINGVIEW LINE TUESDAY AFTERNOON. LIGHT WESTERLIES WEST OF THIS LINE
AND DRIER AIR WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO APPROACH THE CENTURY MARK ALONG
AND WEST OF A LINE FROM VALENTINE TO NORTH PLATTE. A WEAK COOL FRONT
WILL DROP INTO THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT. BASED ON H85 TEMPS WEDS
AFTN...HIGHS WEDNESDAY WILL BE AROUND 10 DEG COOLER THAN TUESDAY'S
HIGHS.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...DAYS 4 TO 7...RIDGING
ALOFT OFF TO THE WEST WILL BEGIN TO BECOME SUPPRESSED BY THE NRN
STREAM AS EARLY AS THURSDAY NIGHT WITH A DISTURBANCE LIFTING ACROSS
THE WRN DAKOTAS. SOME OF THIS UPPER LEVEL FORCING MAY CREEP INTO OUR
NRN CWA THURSDAY NIGHT. IN LIGHT OF THIS...WILL CONTINUE A DRY
FORECAST AS A SURFACE FOCUS CONTINUES TO BE LACKING. A
STRONGER...LONG WAVE TROUGH WILL TRAVERSE SRN CANADA
SATURDAY...FORCING A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY. DECIDED TO INTRODUCE POPS SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY AS THIS
FEATURE IS EXPECTED TO STALL JUST OFF TO THE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST
AREA. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...SOME LIMITED RELIEF SHOULD ARRIVE NEXT
WEEKEND IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE BEFORE MENTIONED FRONT. TAILORED
HIGHS ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MORE TOWARD THE MEN GUIDANCE AS THE MEX
NUMBERS WERE THE HIGHEST TEMPS OF THE ENSEMBLE MEMBERS. THIS
RESULTED IN HIGHS IN THE LOWER TO MID 80S NEXT WEEKEND IN CONTRAST
TO THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90 EXPECTED THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

&&

AVIATION...

VFR CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON WITH A STRAY THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE.
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP TONIGHT. LIMITED COVERED
AND LOW CONFIDENCE OF LOCATION...THUS ONLY INCLUDING CIGS WITH CB IN
THE 18Z TAF FORECAST. WARM FRONT WILL LIFT ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT
AND AS A RESULT MODELS LIMIT THE COVERAGE OF LOW FOG/STRATUS. MOS
GUIDANCE CONTINUE TO HIT THE RIVER VALLEY AND KLBF HARD WITH IFR
CONDITIONS AND FORECAST WILL FOLLOW. FURTHER NORTH...HAVE GONE MORE
CONSERVATIVE WITH ONLY MVFR CONDITIONS. ANY STRATUS/FOG THAT
DEVELOPS SHOULD SLOWLY LIFT TO VFR DURING THE MORNING HOURS. A
CONCERN TO THE LOW CIGS/VSBY FORECAST WILL BE CONVECTION. ANY
THUNDERSTORMS THAT MOVE OVER THE AREA WILL SEE SOME MIXING OF THE
BOUNDARY LAYER AND MAY REDUCE THE COVERAGE OF LOW CONDITIONS.
