NWS Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 21, 2:12 PM CDT, 4 hours 19 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 21, 2:12 PM CDT, 4 hours 19 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE 212 PM CDT SAT MAY 21 2011 .DISCUSSION... MAIN CONCERN IN THE SHORT TERM IS POTENTIAL FOR STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWED A CLOSED MID TROPOSPHERIC LOW SPINNING OVER WESTERN SOUTH DAKOTA. SEVERAL IMPULSES WERE ROTATING AROUND THE MAIN LOW. SURFACE ANALYSIS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON SHOWED A FAIRLY COMPLEX PATTERN. A 996 LOW PRESSURE CENTER WAS OVER EXTREME SOUTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA WITH AN OCCLUDED FRONT CURVING EAST AND THEN SOUTH OF THE LOW INTO ANOTHER LOW OVER WESTERN KANSAS. DEWPOINTS IN THE LOCAL AREA WERE MOSTLY IN THE 50S TO LOWER 60S...WITH SOME DRIER AIR LOCATED TO THE WEST IN CENTRAL NEBRASKA. 12Z OAX SOUNDING SHOWED A FAIRLY STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATE. LAPS DATA SHOWED VERY LITTLE CONVECTIVE INHIBITION WITH 500 METER MIXED LAYER CAPE VALUES MOSTLY FROM 1500 TO 2200 J/KG. EXPECT SCATTERED STORMS TO INITIATE OVER OUR AREA AND THEN TRACK EAST OR NORTHEAST OUT OF OUR AREA. SOME SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED...WITH LARGE HAIL THE MAIN RISK. OTHERWISE...EXPECT COVERAGE OF PRECIPITATION TO DECREASE AFTER 1 AM TONIGHT AND ONLY HAVE LOW POPS FOR PARTS OF THE AREA. SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR SHOULD WORK INTO THE AREA OVERNIGHT AS WINDS TURN TO SOUTHWEST. HAVE LOWS MOSTLY IN THE MID AND UPPER 50S...WITH SOME LOWER 50S WEST OF HIGHWAY 81. SUNDAY...500 MB LOW SHOULD TRACK FROM SOUTH DAKOTA INTO MINNESOTA AND IT APPEARS OUR AREA WILL NOT BE QUITE AS ACTIVE. LAPSE RATES DO NOT LOOK AS STEEP AND 850 MB DEWPOINTS SHOULD GENERALLY BE LOWER. DID HOLD ONTO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY IN THE AFTERNOON...ALTHOUGH RAIN CHANCES SHOULD BE HIGHER TO OUR NORTH... EAST AND SOUTH. REALLY DID NOT MAKE MANY CHANGES FARTHER OUT...SINCE PREVIOUS GRIDS LOOKED GOOD. GFS SEEMED TO BE THE ODD MODEL OUT IN REGARDS TO THE CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. IN GENERAL...WENT CLOSER TO THE WETTER SOLUTION SUGGESTED BY THE 00Z ECMWF. DID ADJUST RAIN CHANCES A BIT FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT...SINCE SYSTEM APPEARS SLOWER THAN PREVIOUS RUNS. CONFIDENCE ON DETAILS BEYOND WEDNESDAY IS NOT VERY HIGH...WITH DIVERGING MODEL SOLUTIONS. 00Z ECMWF HAD A MUCH STRONG 500 MB RIDGE OVER THE ROCKIES COMPARED TO THE 12Z GFS. && .AVIATION... TAF SITES KOFK/KOMA/KLNK 18Z TAFS TIGHTLY WOUND UPPER LOW VERY EVIDENT ACROSS CENTRAL NEBRASKA THIS AFTERNOON. THIS SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH MAINLY MID LEVEL CLOUDS AND LIGHT SHOWER ACTIVITY INTO THE KOFK REGION THROUGH 21Z. AFTER 21Z LOOK FOR CB DEVELOPMENT EVENTUALLY EVOLVING INTO THUNDERSTORMS. ALL THREE TAF SITES WILL LIKELY HAVE THUNDERSTORMS IN VICINITY BETWEEN 21Z AND 02Z PRODUCING ISOLATED MVFR AND IFR CONDITIONS. && .OAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NE...NONE.
