.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 134 PM CDT WED
MAY 29 2013

AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS THE
CENTRAL ROCKIES AND INTO THE HIGH PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON. AS THIS
TROUGH APPROACHES, A STRONG UPPER LEVEL JET WILL NOSE INTO THE
SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS PLACING SOUTHWEST KANSAS IN THE LEFT EXIT
REGION AND IN TURN HELP SUSTAIN ANY STORMS THAT FORM. AS YOU HEAD
TO THE SURFACE, LEE TROUGHING BECOMES APPARENT ACROSS EASTERN
COLORADO WITH A DRYLINE EXTENDING SOUTH ACROSS FAR WESTERN KANSAS
INTO THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE TX/OK PANHANDLES. VERY MOIST
CONDITIONS WILL BE FOUND AHEAD OF THIS BOUNDARY AND IS WHERE STORMS
WILL FORM IN THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS. SOME OF THESE
STORMS WILL BECOME SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL UP TO TENNIS BALLS AND
DAMAGING WINDS OF 70 MPH POSSIBLE. TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE
WITH THE STRONGEST SUPERCELLS, ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF A LINE FROM DODGE
TO LARNED LATER THIS EVENING. STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL ALSO BE
FELT THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING AHEAD OF THE DRYLINE AND A
WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 PM FOR AREAS EAST OF A LINE
FROM HILL CITY TO GARDEN CITY TO HUGOTON. ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP
THIS AFTERNOON WILL INITIALLY START OUT AS DISCRETE CELLS THEN
CONGEAL INTO A LINE AS THEY TREK TO THE EAST. ADDITIONAL STORMS WILL
ALSO BE POSSIBLE AHEAD OF THIS LINE ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL
KANSAS. THE INITIAL LINE IS ANTICIPATED TO MOVE INTO WICHITA'S AREA
THIS EVENING. HOWEVER, A FEW ADDITIONAL STORMS MAY FORM ACROSS WEST
CENTRAL AND CENTRAL KANSAS AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES. THE REMAINDER OF
THE FORECAST AREA SHOULD REMAIN DRY WITH PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. AS FOR
TEMPERATURES, LOWS TONIGHT ARE FORECASTED TO RANGE FROM THE MID 50S
ACROSS THE KS/CO BORDER TO MID 60S ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS.

THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS TOMORROW AND
STRENGTHENS INTO A LOW. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL JET WILL THEN BE PLACED
ABOVE THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS. TOWARDS THE SURFACE, A WEAK COLD
FRONT IS ANTICIPATED TO MOVE THROUGH WESTERN KANSAS IN THE MORNING.
HOWEVER, THIS WILL ONLY SHIFT WINDS TO MORE OF A WESTERLY DIRECTION.
THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THIS WILL BE ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL
KANSAS WHERE SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE. A FEW STORMS MAY
DEVELOP ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS IN THE AFTERNOON AS
THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT STALLS OUT. A FEW OF THESE STORMS COULD
BECOME SEVERE, BUT QUICKLY MOVE INTO WICHITA'S FORECAST
RESPONSIBILITY. THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST AREA SHOULD REMAIN DRY
WITH PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. HIGHS TOMORROW ARE FORECASTED TO RANGE
FROM THE LOWER 80S ACROSS WEST CENTRAL KANSAS TO AROUND 90 DEGREES
ACROSS THE KS/OK BORDER.

THE PREVIOUS EXTENDED FORECAST.  THERE WILL BE A NEAR ZONAL FLOW
ALOFT TO START FRIDAY OFF, WITH A SHORT WAVE COMING THROUGH THE
WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT LATE FRIDAY AND INTO FRIDAY NIGHT.  A COLD FRONT
WILL COME SOUTHWARD WITH THE UPPER WAVE, AND BRING A LITTLE COOLER
AIR IN FOR THE WEEKEND.  FRIDAY'S HIGHS WILL AVERAGE IN THE MID 80S
TO NEAR 90F DEGREES, BUT THEN THE WEEKEND WILL COOL DOWNWARD AND
HAVE HIGHS IN THE MID 70S NORTH OF I-70 AND IN THE LOWER 80S DOWN
ALONG THE OKLAHOMA BORDER.  FOR NOW, THERE WILL BE STRONG WARM UP
MONDAY AND TUESDAY, WITH MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE 90S
FOR MOST LOCATIONS.  ANOTHER COLD FRONT IS POISED TO SLIP SOUTHWARD
THROUGH WESTERN KANSAS ON WEDNESDAY, AND RESULTANT HIGH TEMPS WILL
BE LOWER, NEAR 80F DEGREES IN HAYS AND PERHAPS THE MIDDLE 80S IN THE
LIBERAL AND MEDICINE LODGE AREAS.

THE SHORT WAVE CROSSING FRIDAY NIGHT WILL RESULT IN PRECIPITATION
CHANCES EAST OF A HAYS TO DODGE CITY TO ASHLAND LINE.  AFTER FRIDAY
NIGHT, SOUTHWESTERN KANSAS SHOULD BE PRECIP-FREE WITH HIGH PRESSURE
ALOFT TAKING OVER.  THEN THE UPPER FLOW WILL TURN NORTHWESTERLY AND
A SHORT WAVE WILL SLIP SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH KANSAS MONDAY. WITH THE
SURFACE WARM UP AND COOL UPPER WAVE PASSING OVERHEAD, SMALL SLIGHT
CHANCE TO CHANCES FOR CONVECTIVE PRECIPITATION WILL BE INTRODUCED
MONDAY.  THE COLD FRONT ENTERING THE PICTURE AT THE SURFACE LATE
TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY WILL KEEP SLIGHT CHANCES TO CHANCES GOING FOR
THUNDERSTORMS INTO WEDNESDAY.  AS EACH PRECIPITATION EVENT COMES
INTO THE NEAR TERM, SEVERE CHANCES WILL NEED TO BE EVALUATED.
