WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND PROFILERS SHOWING INITIAL SHORTWAVE TROUGH
NOW MOVING EAST/NORTHEAST OVER THE COUNTY WARNING AREA (CWA)...WITH
A SECOND SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHING SOUTHWEST KS. OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
FROM THIS MORNINGS MCS IN THE EAST PUSHED INTO FAR SOUTHERN
KS/NORTHERN OK BUT IS BEGINNING TO LIFT BACK TO THE NORTH AGAIN
WHILE COOL FRONT OVER NEBRASKA IS PUSHING THROUGH THE FAR NORTHWEST
CWA. HIGH TEMPS TODAY BEHIND THE MCS TODAY HAVE LIKELY BEEN TRIMMED
SLIGHTLY...HOWEVER WITH MOISTURE TRYING TO RETURN
NORTHWESTWARD...WOULD STILL EXPECT TO SEE MLCAPES IN THE 2000-3000
J/KG RANGE AHEAD OF THE FRONT BY LATE AFTERNOON/VERY EARLY EVENING
AS THE CAPPING INVERSION ERODES AWAY...SHOULD SEE ISOLATED/SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTHEAST AND EAST
CENTRAL AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING SHORTWAVE TROUGH. OTHER THUNDERSTORMS
MAY FORM NEAR THE OLD BOUNDARY TO THE SOUTH OF THE AREA...THAT COULD
DEVELOP EAST OR NORTHEAST ALONG THE FRONT...AFFECTING MAINLY THE
SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE CWA OVERNIGHT IN THE FORM OF A POSSIBLE MCS.
ALL IN ALL...WILL KEEP THE LOWEST POPS IN THE FAR NORTH CENTRAL AND
STEADILY INCREASE POPS AND QPF EAST AND SOUTHEASTWARD. WITH THE
HIGHEST DEWPOINTS/TEMPS REMAINING AHEAD OF THE FRONT OVER THE FAR
SOUTHEAST CWA...WILL CARRY LOWS FROM THE MIDDLE 60S FAR NORTH
CENTRAL TO THE LOWER 70S SOUTHEAST OF THE TURNPIKE.   63

THE SPECIFICS FOR SATURDAY WILL BE LARGELY IMPACTED BY EVENTS OF
THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. IF LARGE OR REPEATED CONVECTIVE
COMPLEXES TRAVERSE KANSAS TONIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING...THE
EFFECTIVE FRONT COULD BE DISPLACED SOUTH INTO OKLAHOMA...EVEN
FARTHER SOUTH THAN THE 12Z NAM AND ECMWF SUGGEST. WITH DECENT LATE
MORNING AND AFTERNOON INSOLATION...MODERATE INSTABILITY IS AGAIN
LIKELY WITH LITTLE CAPPING BY LATE DAY AND AT LEAST MODERATE LEVELS
OF BULK SHEAR. MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE SHORTWAVE TROF
IN THE GREAT BASIN THIS AFTERNOON ENTERING THE CENTRAL PLAINS FOR
LATE IN THE AFTERNOON. NORTHWESTERN AREAS ARE THE LEAST LIKELY TO
SEE STORMS FOR ANY PART OF THE DAY...BUT CONFIDENCE IN JUST WHERE
ANY OUTFLOWS END UP IS LOW ENOUGH FOR SOME AFTERNOON MENTION FOR
ALL LOCATIONS...WITH BEST CHANCES IN THE SOUTHEAST. WILL ALSO
INCLUDE SMALL MORNING CHANCES IN THE EAST WHERE CONVECTION MAY BE
EXITING AROUND SUNRISE.

FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE SOMEWHERE ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN
KANSAS 00Z SUNDAY. 500 MB SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THOUGH DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. INSTABILITY...SHEAR AND HIGH

SHORTWAVE RIDGING. ALSO EML WORKS NORTH THROUGH THE DAY CAPPING OFF
ANY CONVECTION. UPPER TROUGH TO THE WEST WILL EJECT OUT ANOTHER WAVE
INTO THE WESTERN PLAINS AND ACROSS NEBRASKA WITH THE UPPER FLOW
BECOMING SOUTHWEST STORMS WILL DEVELOP AND MOVE NORTHEAST IN THE
MEAN 850-300 MB FLOW SUNDAY NIGHT. SCATTERED STORMS MAY DEVELOP IN
THE NOSE OF THE 50 KT LOW LEVEL JET ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS.

ON MONDAY THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES OUT INTO THE PLAINS WITH A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY/DRYLINE MOVING INTO THE CWA IN THE EVENING. CAP IS FORECAST
TO ERODE DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. NAM IS THE MOST PROGRESSIVE
WITH THE FRONT THAN THE ECMWF AND GFS WHICH ARE A BIT SLOWER AND
HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT OVER THE LAST FEW RUNS. PREFER THE ECMWF
PLACEMENT.

THE UPPER LOW IS FORECAST TO MOVE SLOWLY ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS
TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT THEN OUT OF THE PLAINS BY WEDNESDAY.
NORTHWEST FLOW DEVELOPS WEDNESDAY ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE UPPER
TROUGH. RIDGING OCCURS THURSDAY MORNING WITH THE WARM FRONT
RETURNING NORTH IN THE AFTERNOON HOURS. COULD TOUCH OFF SOME
