AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
329 PM CDT WED AUG 8 2012

.DISCUSSION...

VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AT 19Z DEPICTED A BROKEN LINE OF
THUNDERSTORMS TRACKING SOUTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN IOWA ALONG A
STATIONARY FRONT. ACROSS NORTHERN NEBRASKA A COLD FRONT WAS SLOWLY
MOVING SOUTHEAST. THIS SHOULD REACH THE NORTHERN COUNTIES OF THE
CWA BY LATE THIS EVENING. A GROWING CU FIELD WAS ALSO NOTED NEAR A
SECOND STATIONARY BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS INTO OKLAHOMA. A
FEW SHOWERS WERE DEVELOPING JUST SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 35. WARM
MOIST AIR IN PLACE COUPLED WITH A WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH SLIDING
SOUTHEAST INTO NORTHERN MISSOURI MAY PROVIDE ENOUGH LIFT FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST
AND EAST CENTRAL KANSAS THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING HOURS.
CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH FOR WIDESPREAD CONVECTION WITH THE HIGH RES
MODELS KEEPING THE STRONGEST FORCING FURTHER SOUTH AND EAST INTO
OKLAHOMA AND MISSOURI. HOWEVER CHANCE POPS WERE PLACED ACROSS THE
FAR EASTERN COUNTIES OF THE CWA AS MIXED LAYER CAPE SHOULD REACH
AROUND 1500 J/KG AND SFC BASED CAPE IS EXPECTED TO BE AROUND 2000
J/KG EARLY THIS EVENING. POINT SOUNDING PROFILES IN THIS AREA ALSO
SHOW DRY LOW-LEVEL AIR WITH STEEP LOW AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES
INDICATIVE OF DOWNBURST WIND POTENTIAL. WHILE STRONG WINDS ARE
THE PRIMARY CONCERNS...HAIL IS ALSO POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY AFTER 21Z
THROUGH SUNSET AS BULK 0-6KM SHEAR APPEAR STRONGEST ATTM IN THE
30KT RANGE.

AFTER THE COLD FRONT PASSES...SKIES CLEAR AND PRECIP CHANCES END
FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST AS WINDS SWITCH AROUND TO THE NORTH
THIS EVENING. COOLER AIR WILL GRADUALLY FILTER DOWN AS LOWS INTO
THE 65-69 DEGREE RANGE. A MUCH COOLER AND DRIER AIRMASS SETTLES IN
PLACE THURSDAY AFTERNOON WITH NORTH WINDS FROM 10 TO 20 MPH
KEEPING HIGHS DOWN IN THE 87 TO 92 DEGREE RANGE.

BOWEN

WITH UPPER RIDGE TO THE WEST...PERSISTENT NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT
SETS UP THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. INITAL COOL SHOT WILL KEEP HIGHS
MOSTLY IN THE 80S FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...BEFORE A GRADUAL
WARMUP BEGINS LATE IN THE WEEKEND.

NEXT CHANCE OF PRECIP OCCURS AS MODELS BRING A RECOGNIZABLE
SHORTWAVE TROUGH THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. AFTER THAT...PATTERN IS
FAVORABLE FOR PERIODIC WEAK WAVES MOVING THROUGH THE FLOW. TIMING
OF THESE FEATURES THAT FAR OUT IS INCONSISTENT AMONG THE
MODELS...BUT TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY LOOK MOST FAVORABLE AS FLOW
TRANSITIONS TO MORE ZONAL ORIENTATION...MOISTURE DEEPENS AND WARM
ADVECTION PROVIDES MORE FOCUSED ASCENT.

HIGHS SHOULD WARM WELL INTO THE 90S FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

GDP

&&

.AVIATION...

CHALLENGING AVIATION FORECAST FOR THE NEXT 6 TO 12 HOURS AS A COLD
FRONT ENTERS THE TERMINALS WITH TSRA DEVELOPING ALONG THE BOUNDARY.
INSTABILITY IS MARGINAL WITH CONFIDENCE BEING LOW ON WIDESPREAD
COVERAGE. BELIEVE THAT VCTS IS NEEDED THROUGH AT LEAST 04Z WITH
PROBABLE CHANCES OF TSRA BEING IN THE VICINITY. STRONG GUSTY WINDS
ARE THE LIKELY THREAT WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS. WILL MONITOR AND
AMEND IF NEEDED. LIGHT WINDS VEER TO THE NORTH OVERNIGHT AND
INCREASE TO OVER 10KTS AFTER 14Z WITH GUSTS AROUND 20KTS THROUGH
FORECAST PERIOD.
