AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
509 PM CDT FRI JUN 10 2011

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY
EXTENDING FROM OSKALOOSA THROUGH TOPEKA...OSAGE CITY...AND
EMPORIA. THE ENVIRONMENT IN THE WARM SECTOR EAST OF THE FRONT IS
CURRENTLY CHARACTERIZED BY WEAK INHIBITION...1500 TO 2000 J/KG
OF MIXED LAYER CAPE....AND 35 TO 45 KTS OF DEEP LAYER WIND SHEAR.
THESE CONDITIONS ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT OF SUPERCELLS. HOWEVER...
THE STORMS THAT HAVE DEVELOPED IN THE PAST HOUR IN SHAWNEE AND
JEFFERSON COUNTY ARE IN AN AREA WITH SLIGHTLY GREATER CONVECTIVE
INHIBITION AND THE UPDRAFTS MAY ACTUALLY BE HINDERED A BIT BY THE
STRONGER SHEAR IN THAT AREA. HAVE THUS ISSUED THE WATCH TO THE
SOUTHEAST OF CURRENT CONVECTION WHERE CONDITIONS LOOK A BIT MORE
FAVORABLE IN TERMS OF DEVELOPING SEVERE UPDRAFTS. THE MOST
FAVORABLE TIMING FOR SEVERE WEATHER THIS EVENING WILL LIKELY
OCCUR FROM 530 PM THROUGH 830 PM IN THE LOCAL FORECAST AREA.

LOW LEVEL WINDS ARE VERY WEAK IN THE WARM SECTOR...WITH WEAK LOW
LEVEL SHEAR IN PLACE AS WELL. THUS...WHILE LCL'S ARE ON THE LOW
SIDE...DO NOT ANTICIPATE MUCH IN THE WAY OF LOW LEVEL ROTATION
WITH ANY OF THIS ACTIVITY. NEVERTHELESS...WILL MONITOR CLOSELY
GIVEN THE PRESENCE OF THE SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND
POTENTIAL FOR SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT.

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)...

UPPER LOW MOVING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS BRINGING SOME SHEER
VORTICITY ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN KANSAS...WHICH IS WORKING
ON SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY ACROSS THE NORTHERN COUNTIES AND
PRODUCING ISOLATED SHOWERS AND STORMS THERE. SURFACE FRONT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW HAS PUSHED SOUTHWARD TOWARD THE WICHITA
AREA...WITH WARM SOUTHERLY FLOW IN NORTHERN OKLAHOMA STALLING ITS
SOUTHERLY PROGRESS. HIGHS HAVE REACHED LOWER 80S WHERE THE SUN
HAS BROKEN OUT...AND REMAINED IN THE 60S AND 70S ACROSS THE NE
UNDER THE CLOUDS.

MAY STILL GET SOME SHOWERS AND STORMS ALONG THE FRONT TO THE
SOUTH...AND MID LEVEL WINDS OVER THE FRONT REMAIN SOUTHERLY
ACROSS THE EAST SO WILL CARRY SOME SLT TO CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE
EAST CENTRAL COUNTIES OVERNIGHT MAINLY BEFORE MIDNIGHT. WILL PASS
ALONG TO NEXT SHIFT TO WATCH FOR PATCHY MORNING FOG IF SKIES
CLEAR ENOUGH TO GIVE RADIATIONAL COOLING A SHOT. COOL
NORTHEASTERLY FLOW WITH THE SFC HIGH CONTINUES ACROSS OUR AREA
THROUGH THE DAY SATURDAY AND EXPECT A NICE LATE SPRING DAY WITH
HIGHS UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S. THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO HOLD OFF
FOR OUR AREA UNTIL THE EVENING HOURS.

CRAVEN

.LONG TERM (SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)...

SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL DEEPEN IN THE HIGH PLAINS SATURDAY
NIGHT IN RESPONSE TO HEIGHT FALLS ALOFT FROM A DIGGING UPPER
TROUGH IN THE WESTERN CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES. A STALLED FRONT
IN SOUTHERN KANSAS WILL LIFT NORTH AS A WARM FRONT IN RESPONSE TO
AN INCREASING PRESSURE GRADIENT. MODEL GUIDANCE DIFFERS ON
EVOLUTION OF CONVECTION INITIATION SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY. THE
NAM IS FURTHEST WEST WITH THE SURFACE LOW AND BACKS THE LOW
LEVEL JET BEFORE THE JET VEERS WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE UPPER
LEVEL WAVE THROUGH NORTHEAST KANSAS. MEANWHILE...THE GFS IS
FURTHER EAST WITH THE SURFACE LOW WITH A MORE VEERING LOW LEVEL
JET. THE ECMWF IS MORE OF A COMPROMISE SOLUTION AND HAVE FAVORED
THE ECMWF AND GFS FOR THIS FORECAST. NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP NEAR THIS FRONT AND TRACK
THROUGH NORTHEAST KANSAS SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. PRECIPITABLE
WATER VALUES AIDED BY STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT WILL ALLOW FOR
EFFICIENT RAIN PROCESSES ALONG WITH HEAVY RAIN IN THE STRONGER
THUNDERSTORMS. SHEAR PROFILES ALONG WITH INSTABILITY ALSO SUPPORT
THE POTENTIAL OF MARGINALLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. WILL ALSO NEED
TO MONITOR THE POTENTIAL OF FLOODING WHERE THUNDERSTORMS TRACK
OVER THE SAME AREAS AND IN BASINS WHERE FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE IS
LOWER DUE TO PREVIOUS HEAVY RAIN.

UPPER LEVEL RIDGING IS PROGGED TO BUILD INTO THE SOUTHERN AND
CENTRAL PLAINS MONDAY BRINGING AN UPSWING IN TEMPERATURES.
TUESDAY AN UPPER TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS
NUDGING A WEAK FRONT SOUTH INTO NORTHEAST KANSAS. THIS FRONT WILL
BRING A CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY NIGHT. A STRONGER UPPER
WAVE LATE IN THE FORECAST PERIOD LOOKS TO PROVIDE A BETTER CHANCE
FOR THUNDERSTORMS.

.AVIATION...

CEILINGS HAVE BEEN GRADUALLY LIFTING THROUGHOUT THE DAY. HAVE
KEPT MVFR CEILINGS PREVAILING FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. SOME BREAKS
IN THE CLOUDS CAN BE EXPECTED AS SURFACE HEATING CONTINUES. EXPECT
AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS TO REMAIN SOUTH OF THE TERMINALS ALONG THE
COLD FRONT. FOG DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT AND EARLY
TOMORROW MORNING. DURING THE DAY TOMORROW EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS
WITH SCATTERED CU.
