AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
1104 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2012

.UPDATE...KUEX INDICATES CONVECTION SPREADING IN AERIAL COVERAGE
ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN ONE-THIRD OF THE CWA. SHORT TERM GUIDANCE
CONTINUES TO SUGGEST THIS A TREND WHICH WILL CONTINUE. DEEP LAYER
MUCAPE VALUES NEAR 1000J/KG AND DEEP LAYER BULK SHEAR NEAR 50KTS
WILL CONTINUE TO PROMOTE A THREAT OF LARGE HAIL. A NEW SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED WHICH COVERS THE ENTIRE CWA
THROUGH 10Z. FORECAST HAS BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE THIS NEW SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 949 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2012/

UPDATE...EVENING UPPER AIR ANALYSIS INDICATES TROUGHING OVER THE
WESTERN CONUS WITH A RIDGE OVER THE EAST. MID AND UPPER LEVEL JET
ENERGY EXTENDS FROM THE WEST-CENTRAL CONUS...SOUTHEAST INTO THE
MID ROCKY MOUNTAIN RANGE AND THEN NORTHEAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL
PLAINS. A ~100KT UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK AND A ~70KT MID LEVEL JET
STREAK IS NOTED ACROSS THE WEST-CENTRAL CONUS AND BEGINNING TO
PUSH INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A MID
LEVEL SHORT WAVE APPROACHING THE MID ROCKY MOUNTAIN RANGE. AT THE
SURFACE A COLD FRONT EXTENDS FROM NEAR KOMA...TO NEAR KCNK...TO
NEAR KDDC. LOW LEVEL FLOW IS FROM THE THE NORTHEAST ACROSS MUCH OF
OUR CWA AS A RESULT...ALTHOUGH LOCATIONS FROM THAYER COUNTY TO
MITCHELL COUNTY...STILL AHEAD OF THE LOW LEVEL BAROCLINIC
ZONE...REMAIN FROM THE SOUTHEAST. KUEX SHOWS A THIN LINE OF
CONVECTION...ALONG THE LOW LEVEL BAROCLINIC ZONE...EXTENDING FROM
THAYER COUNTY TO MITCHELL COUNTY...BUT ADDITIONAL CONVECTION IS
NOT FIRING FARTHER NORTHWEST ACROSS MUCH OF THE REST OF THE CWA.

SHORT TERM GUIDANCE SUGGESTS SURFACE-BASED CONVECTION WILL REMAIN
POSSIBLE ALONG THE LOW LEVEL BAROCLINIC ZONE THROUGH 04Z OR
SO...HOWEVER THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD DIMINISH THEREAFTER AS DIABATIC
HEATING IS COMPLETELY LOST AND REMNANT FORCING ALONG THE
BAROCLINIC ZONE REMAINS FAIRLY WEAK. THE INDIRECT THERMAL
CIRCULATION WITHIN THE LEFT-FRONT QUAD OF THE APPROACHING MID
LEVEL JET STREAK...ALONG WITH CONTINUALLY INCREASING OMEGA AHEAD
OF THE MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE...WILL CONTINUE TO PROMOTE
PRECIPITATION ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS THE BULK OF THE FORCING OVERNIGHT WILL BE
RELEGATED TO THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE CWA WHICH IS WHERE MOST OF
THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE REALIZED. SPC MESO-ANALYSIS INDICATES
DEEP LAYER MUCAPE VALUES OF AROUND 1000J/KG CURRENTLY IN EXISTENCE
ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA...WITH DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF AROUND 60KTS.
THE COMBINATION OF MODERATE INSTABILITY AND VERY STRONG DEEP LAYER
SHEAR WILL CONTINUE TO PROMOTE A THREAT OF LARGE HAIL ACROSS MUCH
OF THE CWA THROUGH EARLY MORNING THURSDAY.

WENT AHEAD AND UPDATED THE FORECAST WITH SLIGHT CHANGES MADE TO
HOURLY GIRDS TO BETTER REFLECT CURRENT TRENDS...ESPECIALLY
REGARDING CLOUD COVER. CURRENT POPS ACROSS NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE
CWA LOOK RIGHT ON FOR TONIGHT AND THUS RAIN CHANCES WERE LEFT AS IS.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 637 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2012/

AVIATION...00Z KGRI TAF. THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT COULD OCCUR
ALONG A SURFACE COLD FRONT CONTINUING TO MOVE TO THE SOUTHEAST.
THIS SURFACE CONVECTION SHOULD REMAIN SOUTHEAST OF THE TERMINAL.
LATER ON TOWARD LATE EVENING...A LOW-LEVEL JET WILL ENCOURAGE
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP AND LINGER INTO THE EARLY
OVERNIGHT HOURS. WIND MAY BE A BIT GUSTY FOR THURSDAY...WITH SOME
SMALL CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION
ON THURSDAY ARE SMALL ENOUGH TO LEAVE OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR NOW.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 419 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2012/

UPDATE...SENT AN UPDATE TO THE FORECAST TO INCLUDE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH 293 FOR PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH
11 PM CDT. THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR ANY SEVERE STORMS WILL
REMAIN WITH AND ALONG EITHER SIDE OF A SLOWLY PROGRESSING COLD
FRONT...WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS BEING THE PRIMARY
CONCERNS WITH ANY STORMS THAT DO DEVELOP.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 400 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2012/

SHORT TERM...A FAIRLY ACTIVE START TO THE FORECAST IS EXPECTED
THIS EVENING AS A COLD FRONT SLOWLY MAKES ITS WAY ACROSS SOUTH
CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS...WITH AN ASSOCIATED MID
LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TO THE WEST EXPECTED TO HELP BRING SOME
WIDESPREAD SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ACROSS MUCH OF THE
FORECAST AREA DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS TONIGHT.

SHORT TERM MODELS ARE IN MODERATE DISAGREEMENT WITH INITIATION OF
CONVECTION ALONG A PASSING COLD FRONT...CURRENTLY DRAPED FROM NEAR
NORFOLK...ACROSS GRAND ISLAND...SOUTH WESTWARD TOWARDS HOLDREGE.
THIS FRONT HAS BEEN VERY SLOW TO WORK ITS WAY ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA THIS AFTERNOON...AND SO FAR HAS YET TO PRODUCE ENOUGH FORCING
TO BREAK LOW LEVEL CAP. 12Z NAM AND WRF BOTH DID TRY AND INITIATE
CONVECTION...BUT 18Z NAM AND LATEST HRRR BOTH HOLD OFF ANY
WIDESPREAD SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TILL FORCING FROM MID
LEVEL LOW TO OUR WEST APPROACHES CENTRAL NEBRASKA AROUND MIDNIGHT.
THAT BEING SAID...INGREDIENTS ARE IN PLACE...AS LATEST MESO
ANALYSIS SHOWS A FINGER OF 2000+ J/KG OF CAPE ACROSS THE LOCAL
AREA NEAR THE SLOWLY PROGRESSING FRONT...AND LITTLE INHIBITION AS
WELL AS DEVELOPING CU FIELD IN SATELLITE. PER CONSENSUS AMONG
MODELS...DID BACK OFF ON INITIATION OF CONVECTION THIS
AFTERNOON...BUT INSERTED MENTION OF SEVERE STORMS AFTER 00Z...AS
COMBINATION OF SHEAR AND INSTABILITY SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR SOME
SUPERCELLS TO DEVELOP IF INITIATION CAN BE REALIZED NEAR THE
FRONT.

BEHIND THE FRONT...AS THE MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE APPROACHES THE
REGION...BROADER SCALE FORCING SHOULD BE AMPLE ENOUGH TO DEVELOP
WIDESPREAD CONVECTION ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA BY AROUND
MIDNIGHT...CONTINUING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...SO THE POTENTIAL
FOR SEVERE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS REMAIN A CONCERN.
THEREAFTER...THE ATMOSPHERE SHOULD BEGIN TO STABILIZE BEHIND THE
DEPARTING MID LEVEL WAVE...WITH A SMALL CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND AN
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM CONTINUING INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS WITH
NEAR TO SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONAL TEMPERATURES EXPECTED DURING THE
AFTERNOON.

LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. MAIN FORECAST
CONCERNS WILL BE CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MOST OF THE
PERIOD AND TEMPERATURES.

ZONAL TO SOUTHWEST FLOW GIVES WAY TO NORTHWEST FLOW. THERE ARE
SEVERAL WAVES THAT MOVE THROUGH THE AREA DURING THE PERIOD. THE
FIRST WAVE MOVES INTO THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY. THERE
WILL BE A CHANCE FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS. ON FRIDAY A SURFACE LOW
DEVELOPING IN KANSAS WILL LIFT A WARM FRONT NORTH INTO THE FORECAST
AREA. WITH THE FRONT MOVING THROUGH AND THE ANOTHER UPPER WAVE
MOVING INTO THE AREA THERE IS A BETTER CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS.
SOME OF THESE STORMS COULD BE STRONG TO SEVERE.

SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT THERE ARE WEAK WAVES THAT MOVES THROUGH
BUT LITTLE IN THE WAY TO GET THINGS STARTED SO ANY PRECIPITATION
WILL BE SPOTTY. THE NEXT CHANCE FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER STRONGER WAVE MOVES INTO THE AREA
AND A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT AS IT MOVES
THROUGH. SOME OF THESE COULD BE SEVERE.

MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT THE UPPER WAVE MOVES TO THE EAST AND A
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE AREA...KEEPING THINGS DRY.
AGAIN TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT THERE ARE A FEW WEAK UPPER LEVEL
WAVES THAT MOVE INTO THE PLAINS. MODELS HAVE SOME FAIRLY SPOTTY
PRECIPITATION AROUND THE AREA WITH THESE UPPER LEVEL WAVES. THE GFS
HAS MORE PRECIPITATION AROUND THAN THE ECMWF DOES.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE SOMEWHAT VARIABLE THROUGH THE WEEK. WITH CLOUDS
AROUND ON FRIDAY THE TEMPERATURES WILL BE A BIT COOLER...WARMING
AFTER THE WARM FRONT LIFTS TO THE NORTH FOR SATURDAY AND SUNDAY THEN
COOLING AGAIN AS THE COOL FRONT MOVE THROUGH MONDAY AND TUESDAY AND
COOLING MORE AFTER THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH TUESDAY.
