What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Topeka, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 19, 6:53 PM CDT, 2 hours 21 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 19, 6:53 PM CDT, 2 hours 21 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
653 PM CDT SUN JUN 19 2011

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.DISCUSSION...

LATEST OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS HAS FRONTAL BOUNDARY ROUGHLY FROM NORTHERN
FRANKLIN CO TO NEAR ALMA TO NEAR ABILENE. BOUNDARY LOOKS TO BE
MOVING NORTH AROUND 9 KTS AND IS SHOWING UP ON THE RADAR. BOUNDARY
SHOULD SETTLE BETWEEN HIGHWAYS 24 AND 36 BY 00Z. MIXED LAYER CAPE
WAS AROUND 4000 J/KG THIS AFTERNOON WITH ABOUT 100 TO 150 JULES OF
INHIBITION. SURFACE LOW WAS CURRENTLY IN SOUTHEAST COLORADO WITH A
DRY LINE ACROSS WESTERN OKLAHOMA INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS. THERMAL
AXIS EXTENDS FROM WESTERN OKLAHOMA INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS WHERE
TEMPS ARE AT OR ABOVE 100.

SHORTWAVE TROUGH EJECTING NORTHEAST OUT OF COLORADO WITH ANOTHER
WAVE SOUTHWEST NEAR THE FOUR CORNERS. DEPENDING ON THE STRENGTH OF
THE CAP THERE IS PLENTY OF MOISTURE/SHEAR AND INSTABILITY AVAILABLE
FOR STORMS TO QUICKLY BECOME SEVERE. LOW LEVEL SHEAR WILL BE
ENHANCED NEAR AND NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT WHERE WINDS WILL BE BACKED
SO TORNADO THREAT IS HEIGHTENED. ALSO SOME ISOLATED CELLS MAY
DEVELOP IN THE THERMAL AXIS IN SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS AND MOVE
NORTHEAST INTO THE CWA. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION SEVERE IN THE
FORECAST WORDING FOR TONIGHT WITH ALL MODES OF SEVERE WEATHER
POSSIBLE. LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE MILD WITH LOWS MAINLY IN THE LOW TO
MID 70S.

FOR MONDAY THE UPPER TROUGH WILL EJECT OUT INTO THE PLAINS. AIRMASS
AHEAD OF THE WAVE WILL BE CAPPED BY A STOUT ELEVATED MIXED LAYER. BY
LATE AFTERNOON DRY LINE MOVES INTO CENTRAL KANSAS AS SURFACE LOW IS
NEAR THE NEBRASKA BORDER. CAP WEAKENS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON WITH THE
APPROACH OF THE UPPER TROUGH AND CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY. AIRMASS WILL BE VERY UNSTABLE AHEAD OF THE FRONT/DRY LINE
WITH FAVORABLE 0-6KM SHEAR AND 0-1KM SHEAR. THUS SEVERE STORMS ARE
AGAIN POSSIBLE WITH LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS AND A FEW TORNADOES
ALL POSSIBLE. INITIAL MODE WILL BE DISCRETE SUPERCELLS PRIOR TO 00Z.
HIGHS ON MONDAY WILL RANGE FROM THE LOW TO UPPER 90S.

53

AS THE STRONG SHORTWAVE TROUGH LIFTS OUT TO THE NORTHEAST THROUGH
THE EVENING HOURS...EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO CONGEAL/ORGANIZE FROM
DISCRETE TO MORE OF A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE FRONT AS THE
EVENING PROGRESSES AS WINDS BECOME MORE UNIDIRECTIONAL. WILL KEEP
HIGHER POPS ACROSS THE EAST IN THE LIKELY CATEGORY AHEAD OF THE
LINE AND TAPER TO CHANCE OVER NORTH CENTRAL WHERE ITS PROXIMITY TO
THE CONVECTION COULD BE CLOSE AT EARLY EVENING...THEN DECREASE
AFTER MIDNIGHT AS MAIN CONVECTION EXPECTED TO BE EAST OF THE CWA
BY THAT TIME. ALTHOUGH A DRY AIR INTRUSION WILL HAVE MOVED ACROSS
THE CWA LATE IN THE NIGHT...SOME WRAP AROUND MOISTURE ON THE
BACKSIDE OF DEPARTING STRONG UPPER TROUGH WILL PROVIDE A LINGERING
CHANCE FOR SOME REDEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION WITH THE PASSAGE OF AN
850 TROUGH AXIS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF THE COUNTY
WARNING AREA (CWA). ALTHOUGH CAN'T TOTALLY RULE OUT A SHOWER
POTENTIAL NEAR THE NEBRASKA BORDER AS SOME MOISTURE STILL WRAPS
AROUND THE UPPER LOW OVER THE UPPER MS VALLEY...BUT FELT THE
POTENTIAL WAS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO WARRANT CARRY A PRECIP CHANCE
ACROSS ANY OF THE CWA...THEREFORE WENT WITH A DRY FCST TUE NIGHT
THROUGH THURSDAY AS MOISTURE REMAINS PUSHED TO THE SOUTH AND
SOUTHWEST OF THE CWA. EXPECT THIS PERIOD TO GENERALLY HAVE HIGHS
IN THE UPPER 70S TO MIDDLE 80S.

BY THURSDAY NIGHT...UPPER TROUGH OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL SHIFT
MORE EAST AND ALLOW UPPER LEVEL RIDGING TO TAKE PLACE WITH 850 FLOW
BACKING ACROSS THE AREA INTO THE HIGH PLAINS. THIS PATTERN WARRANTS
HIGHER POPS WITH INCREASING MOISTURE/INSTABILITY WITH A SYNOPTIC
SETUP FOR POSSIBLE MCS'S/AND OR ELEVATED NOCTURNAL CONVECTIVE EVENTS
WITHIN LLVL JET. WILL KEEP HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE 80S AND LOWS IN
THE 60S. 63

&&

.AVIATION...

CHALLENGING TAFS IN REGARDS TO THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT OVER THE
NEXT 6 HOURS. MONITORING DEVELOPING THUNDERSTORMS SOUTHWEST OF
MHK WHICH ARE TRACKING NORTHEAST. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND NEAR A
WARM FRONT THAT RESIDES JUST NORTH OF THE TAF SITES. IFR
VISIBILITIES WILL BE LIKELY NEAR THUNDERSTORMS WHICH WILL BE
HEAVY RAIN PRODUCERS. CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO END AFTER 06Z
WITH ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE NEAR AND AFTER 23Z.
