CONVECTION WAS TIED MORE CLOSELY TO THE UPPER LOW ALTHOUGH THAT
WILL BE CHANGING INTO EVENING. CONVECTION SHOULD BECOME MORE
WIDESPREAD NEAR DRY LINE FROM SCNTRL NEBRASKA INTO KS WHICH WAS
PUNCHING UP TOWARD SERN NEBRASKA...AND ALSO POSSIBLY NEAR
BOUNDARY IN NERN NEBRASKA. WITH ACTIVITY LIKELY INCREASING ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA PER 4KM WRF...CATEGORICAL POPS APPEAR IN ORDER

KEPT IT CONFINED TO ABOUT THE ERN 2/3RDS AS FORCING BECOMES A
LITTLE MORE QUESTIONABLE SW AS UPPER LOW COULD TEND TO OPEN UP OR
SHIFT MORE SE.

MADE LITTLE CHANGES TO MON-WED PERIODS AS HIGH AMPLITUDE UPPER
RIDGE SETS UP PULLING DOWN DRIER BUT STILL RELATIVELY COOL AIR.
KEPT MOST LOWS AROUND 40/LOWER 40S BUT SOME POTENTIAL FOR MID

FUTURE FORECASTS.

SOME QUESTION IN HOW MUCH ENERGY MANAGES TO UNDERCUT UPPER RIDGE
TOWARD END OF FORECAST PERIOD WITH GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN/PRIOR GFS RUNS
MORE BULLISH/FARTHER E. DECIDED TO INCLUDE SMALL PRECIP CHANCES
