.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 318 PM CDT FRI AUG 3 2012/

DISCUSSION...

SYNOPSIS...12Z UPPER AIR ANLS INDCD 80 KT H3 JET DIVING INTO THE
NORTHERN ROCKIES ACRS MT. THIS JET WAS ASSOCIATED WITH A CLOSED
MID LEVEL CIRCULATION AND A 90 M H5 HEIGHT FALL. STG MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES ASSOCIATED WITH AN EML EXTNDG ACRS THE CNTRL AND WRN
HI PLAINS WITH H7 TO H5 DELTA-T GREATER THAN 20 C. THIS EML WAS
CAPPING OFF A SEASONABLY MOIST LOWER LEVEL ATMOSPHERE WITH +15 C
H85 DEWPOINTS FM WRN KS INTO WRN NEB. 19Z SFC ANLYS INDCD A STG
CDFNT FM NRN SD INTO NW NEB WITH LOW PRES AROUND KPIR.

FORECAST...SIGNIFICANT CHANGES ARE IN STORE FOR THE FA AS THE
PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM ROTATES THROUGH THE CNTRL
AND NRN PLAINS OVER THE NEXT 36 HOURS. SFC CDFNT WILL DROP TOWARD
OUR NW FA BY THIS EVNG WITH 2-3 MB 3-HR PRES RISES BEHIND THE FNT.
THE ATMOSPHERE ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FNT IS BECOMING MODERATELY
UNSTABLE WITH OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS INDCG 2-3 K J/KG OF MLCAPE WHICH
IS ALSO SUPPORTED FM 12Z ROABS. THOUGH MID AFTN VISIBLE SAT
IMAGERY INCS THAT THE ATMOSPHERE REMAINS CAPPED OVER NEB ALNG THE
CDFNT. THIS CAP IS EXPECTED TO ERODE OVER THE NEXT 2-3 HRS AS THE
TEMPERATURES AHEAD OF THE FNT SOAR TO 100 AND UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT
INCREASES. THIS SHOULD LEAD TO CI BY 22-23Z ALNG THE CDFNT INTO
NRN NEB. THE COMBINATION OF THE THE INSTABILITY AND EFFECTIVE
SHEAR OF 30-35 KT WILL ALLOW FOR SOME ORGANIZATION TO THE
CONVECTION OVER THE FAR NRN CWA WITH A FEW SVR STORMS POSSIBLE.
THE MAIN THREAT WOULD BE WIND AND HAIL. STRONGER DEEP-LAYER SHEAR
ACRS THE SD/MN WILL LIKELY LEAD TO A FASTER PROPAGATION OF THE
CONVECTION TO OUR N...ALLOWING FOR THE TSRA IN OUR FA TO BECOME
INCREASINGLY ALIGNED WEST TO EAST WITH A SLOW SWD PROPAGATION
EXPECTED. THUS WILL CONFINE POPS /IN THE LIKELY CAT/ TO THE NRN
CWA THIS EVNG. AFTER MIDNIGHT THE CONVECTION WILL GENERALLY WEAKEN
WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT SWD WITH ONLY SCHC POPS WARRANTED ALNG AND S
OF I-80. WE WILL LIKELY SEE AN INCREASE IN SHOWERS BEHIND THE FNT
OVER NE NEB LATE TONIGHT AND INTO SAT MRNG AS STG UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT BECOMES JUXTAPOSED WITH THE MID LEVEL FRONTOGENESIS AND
WEAK STABILITY. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD GENERALLY PUSH E OF THE FA BY
MID DAY ON SAT AS THE SFC FNT SHIFT S OF THE FA. THERE IS A SMALL
CHANCE OF A FEW EARLY AFTN STORMS NEAR THE KS/NEB AND IA/MO
BORDER BEFORE THE INSTABILITY AND FNT SHIFT EWD.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE SOME 15 TO 20 DEGREES COOLER ON SAT OVER
MOST OF THE AREA WITH A GOOD DEAL OF MORNING CLOUDS AND A NW WIND.
SFC HIGH PRESSURE WILL OVERSPREAD THE FA ON SAT NIGHT LEADING TO A
VERY NICE NIGHT WITH CLEAR SKIES...LIGHT WINDS AND COOL
TEMPERATURES. DRY WEATHER WILL CONT FOR SUN AND A GOOD DEAL OF MON
WITH TEMPERATURES NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL.
