AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
635 PM CDT THU JUN 9 2011

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.DISCUSSION...

WARM AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS HAS SPREAD ACROSS MUCH OF EASTERN KANSAS
THIS AFTERNOON WIT TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW 90S AND DEWPOINTS
AROUND THE 70 DEGREE MARK. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS ACROSS THE
NORTHERN COUNTIES...AT 20Z FROM GENERALLY THE SALINA AREA
NORTHEAST TOWARD ST JOSEPH MO. SURFACE LOW / TROF HAS NOSED INTO
THE SALINA AREA. SURFACE WINDS ALONG AND NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT
REMAIN EASTERLY WITH AREAS TO THE SOUTH A GUSTY SOUTH. STRONG
UPPER WAVE NOTED ON WV IMAGERY MOVING INTO CTRL KS ATTM...AND IS
EXPECTED TO INITIATE STORMS OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR SO ACROSS CTRL
KS AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE SURFACE BOUNDARY.

AS STORMS PROPAGATE EASTWARD...AIR MASS INSTABILITY AND STRONG LAPSE
RATES ARE ADDITIONALLY FAVORABLE FOR LARGE DESTRUCTIVE HAIL. AREAS
TO THE NORTH ALSO HAVE PRECIPITABLE WATER OF 1.5 INCHES OR HIGHER
AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL ALSO A THREAT. FRONT PUSHES THROUGH
MUCH OF THE AREA BY THE LATE EVENING HOURS AND THE FRONT HANGS UP
ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHERN COUNTIES.

NEXT SHORTWAVE WAVE AND ASSOCIATED LOW LEVEL JET IMPINGE ON THE
BOUNDARY OVER WEST CENTRAL KANSAS IN THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AND VEERS
OVER EASTERN KANSAS THROUGH THE DAY ON FRIDAY. SO AFTER A BRIEF
LULL IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS...EXPECT ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS
AND STORMS ON FRIDAY...ALTHOUGH THE SEVERE THREAT IS SHIFTED SOUTH
AND EAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. 67

(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)

ADDITIONAL RAINFALL IS EXPECTED OVER THE WEEKEND ALONG WITH THE
POTENTIAL OF HEAVY RAIN WHICH COULD LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING ALONG
WITH ELEVATED LEVELS IN RIVERS AND STREAMS. THE COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO TRACK INTO EAST CENTRAL KANSAS FRIDAY NIGHT PROVIDING A
FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS NEAR THE
FRONT. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD SOUTH OVER THE CENTRAL
PLAINS BEHIND THE FRONT WHICH WILL REINFORCE BAROCLINICITY OVER
SOUTHERN KANSAS. FORECAST MODELS CONTINUE TO PROG THIS FRONT LIFTING
NORTH AS A WARM FRONT SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. AN UPPER TROUGH IS
EXPECTED TO DEEPEN ACROSS THE WESTERN UNITED STATES PRODUCING HEIGHT
FALLS ALOFT IN THE HIGH PLAINS. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP IN
WESTERN KANSAS WITH THE PRESSURE GRADIENT STRENGTHENING OVER THE
CENTRAL PLAINS. MOISTURE TRANSPORT AIDED BY AN INCREASING LOW LEVEL
JET INTERACTING WITH THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PRODUCE NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. SUFFICIENT LIFT ALONG WITH A MOIST
AIRMASS WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OVER AN INCH SUPPORT A RISK
FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN NEAR STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS. SHEAR AND
THERMAL PROFILES ALSO RAISE A CONCERN FOR MARGINALLY SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THIS TIME FRAME. ANGLE

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...SURFACE BOUNDARY MOVES NORTH SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY.  THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE
BOUNDARY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY AFTERNOON...BUT WITH A SIGNIFICANT
DRY COLUMN MOVING NORTH WITH THE WAA...SHOULD SEE AN END TO MOST OF
THE CONVECTION BY LATE MONDAY NIGHT.  BOUNDARY REMAINS STATIONARY
OVER THE CWA OR SLIGHTLY NORTH ALONG THE KANSAS NEBRASKA BORDER
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY.  THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE
BOUNDARY AND NORTH OF IT INTO NEBRASKA AS AS OPEN H5 WAVE MOVES INTO
THE INTER-MOUNTAIN WEST.  SURFACE LOW OVER THE WESTERN HIGH PLAINS
BEGINS TO MOVE NORTHEAST TUESDAY MORNING IN RESPONSE TO THE UPPER
WAVE MOVING ONTO THE PLAINS.  THIS IS EXPECTED TO PUSH THE BOUNDARY
FURTHER NORTH...AND SHOULD KEEP US DRY TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT OR
MOST OF THE AREA.  ANY CHANCE FOR POPS WOULD REMAIN MAINLY ALONG THE
KS/NE BORDER AND NEAR THE SURFACE LOW OVER THE FAR WESTERN
COUNTIES.  BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...BOUNDARY MOVES OVER THE CWA AS
NORTHERN TIER WAVES PUSHES IT SOUTH.  HOWEVER...BOUNDARY ESSENTIALLY
BECOMES WASHED OUT.  WITH SEVERAL SMALL IMPULSES EMBEDDED IN THE
FLOW BUT NO SIGNIFICANT UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT...KEPT ONLY SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS IN FOR WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.  TEMPERATURES LOOK TO
BE A LITTLE WARMER THAN MOS INDICATES WITH 23C TO 26C 850 MB TEMPS
INDICATED IN THE MODELS.  OPTED TO BUMP TEMPS UP INTO THE 90'S FOR
TUESDAY WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES...BUT BROUGHT TEMPS BACK INTO THE
UPPER 80'S FOR WEDNESDAY AS SURFACE BOUNDARY MOVES BACK OVER THE
AREA. BYRNE

&&

.AVIATION...

VFR EXPECTED OUTSIDE OF ANY CONVECTION THROUGH 09Z. THEREAFTER
EXPECT BOUNDARY TO MOVE THROUGH MHK AND BRING IN MVFR CIGS AND
VSBYS...THEN TOP AND FOE BY 10 OR 11Z. ADDED TEMPO GROUP FOR TSRA
THIS EVENING WITH HIGHEST THREAT THROUGH 04Z FRI. MVFR CIGS TO
CONTINUE THROUGH 17Z THEN BECOME VFR. ALSO COULD SEE MORE TSRA IN
THE AFTERNOON AT TOP AND FOE.
