AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
229 PM MDT WED MAY 29 2013

.SHORT TERM...(THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 105 PM MDT WED MAY 29 2013

LATEST VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THUNDERSTORMS BEGINNING TO
FIRE ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS.  UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS A TROUGH
OVER EASTERN COLORADO MOVING EASTWARD TOWARD THE TRI-STATE AREA.  AT
THE SURFACE A COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED SOUTH OF LIMON STRETCHING
NORTHEAST BETWEEN ST. FRANCIS AND GOODLAND TO SOUTH OF IMPERIAL.  A
DRY LINE WAS LOCATED SOUTHWEST OF THE AREA THEN PARALLELING THE
CO/KS BORDER TO THE SOUTH.

FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON AM ANTICIPATING STORMS TO CONTINUE TO
DEVELOP ALONG THE COLD FRONT...WITH DEVELOPMENT EXTENDING SOUTHWARD ALONG
THE DRY LINE.  MEAN STORM MOTION WILL BE TO THE NORTH-NORTHEAST BUT
THE STORMS WILL MOVE AS WHOLE TO THE EAST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
DUE TO THE MEAN FLOW BEING PARALLEL WITH THE FRONT...THUNDERSTORM
TRAINING WILL BE A CONCERN AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES.  THIS MAY
LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING.  IN ADDITION THE LONG RESENECE TIME
ALONG THE FRONT...PROVIDED THE STORMS DO NOT SHIFT OFF OF THE
FRONT...MAY ALLOW FOR LAND SPOUTS TO DEVELOP.  OTHERWISE...THE MAIN
THREAT WILL BE THE LARGE HAIL POSSIBLE WITH ANY THUNDERSTORM THAT
DEVELOPS.  DAMAGING WINDS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY STORMS THAT
DEVELOP...ESPECIALLY IF STORMS MERGE INTO A SQUALL LINE THIS
AFTERNOON.

MEANWHILE THE 700MB SHORT WAVE TROUGH WEST OF THE AREA WILL FIRE OFF
A FEW THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL FOLLOW THE TROUGH EAST INTO THE AREA.
THE ONLY THREATS WITH THESE STORMS...SHOULD THEY BECOME
SEVERE...WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.  THIS SECOND LINE
MAY MERGE WITH THE LINE FIRING OFF OF THE FRONT AND DRY LINE LATER
THIS AFTERNOON OR REMAIN BEHIND IT.

FOR THIS EVENING AM EXPECTING THE SEVERE THREAT TO CONTINUE AS
INSTABILITY REMAINS WITH VERY LITTLE CINH AHEAD OF THE ADVANCING COLD
FRONT.  THE STORM MOTION AND SEVERE THREAT WILL CONTINUE INTO THE
EVENING FROM THE AFTERNOON.  BEHIND THE FRONT THE SEVERE THREAT
SHOULD BE MINIMAL AT BEST DURING THE EVENING DUE TO THE BETTER
INSTABILITY BEING ALONG/AHEAD OF THE FRONT.  ANTICPATE THE TORNADO
THREAT TO DISSIPATE BY MID EVENING AS TEMPERATURES COOL.  HOWEVER
THE REST OF THE SEVERE WEATHER THREATS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE COLD
FRONT IS EAST OF THE AREA WHICH SHOULD BE SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT.
THE MODELS SHOW THE 700MB SHORT WAVE TROUGH LINGERING OVER THE
EAST...SO WILL HAVE SOME PRECIP. CHANCES LINGERING THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS OVER THE EAST AS A RESULT.

MEANWHILE A SECOND 700MB SHORT WAVE TROUGH MOVES OVER THE WESTERN
HALF OF THE AREA OVERNIGHT.  SOUNDINGS SHOW SOME ELEVATED
INSTABILITY TO WORK WITH SO WILL PLACE A MENTION OF ISOLATED CHANCES
IN THE FORECAST.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 228 PM MDT WED MAY 29 2013

WESTERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS THROUGH FRIDAY
NIGHT WITH AN UPPER TROUGH OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS. THE TROUGH WILL
SHIFT INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION SATURDAY BRINGING NORTHWEST FLOW
INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS.

THUNDERSTORMS HAVE THE POSSIBILITY OF LINGERING IN THE EASTERN FA
THROUGH MID MORNING THURSDAY AS THE OVERNIGHT SHORTWAVE EXITS THE
AREA. BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON THE SURFACE TROUGH AND HIGHER DEWPOINTS
WILL BE JUST EAST OF THE FA SO HAVE LEFT A SLIGHT CHANCE IN THE FAR
EASTERN FA. BY EVENING MOISTURE HAS DECREASED EVEN MORE WITH THE
TROUGH AXIS WELL EAST OF THE FA SO WILL INSERT NIL POPS FOR THE
THURSDAY NIGHT PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE AND SUBSIDENCE WILL CONTINUE
OVER THE FA FROM FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. POPS WILL BE NIL FOR THOSE
PERIODS AS WELL.

FIRE WEATHER...RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES FALL TO AROUND 15 PERCENT
OVER A FEW COUNTIES IN THE FAR SOUTHWEST FA THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WIND
GUSTS MAY ALSO REACH CRITERIA. FUELS MAY BE CRITICAL OR NON-CRITICAL
BASED ON RAINFALL THAT MIGHT OCCUR OVER THE AREA TONIGHT. CONDITIONS
ARE SLIGHTLY LESS FAVORABLE ON FRIDAY FOR THE SAME AREA.

COOLER MAX TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED BEHIND THE FRONT FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY. READINGS ON THURSDAY WILL BE IN THE UPPER 70S/LOW 80S
COOLING TO THE LOWER 70S ACROSS THE ENTIRE FA BY SATURDAY. MIN
TEMPERATURES WILL COOL INTO THE MID 40S ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO
THURSDAY NIGHT WITH MID/UPPER 40S WITH SOME LOWER 50S IN THE EAST
FRIDAY NIGHT.

IN THE EXTENDED...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)...UPPER FLOW
WILL BE WESTERLY THROUGH THIS PART OF THE FORECAST. SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE OVER THE AREA THROUGH SUNDAY FOLLOWED BY A
TROUGH IN EASTERN COLORADO MONDAY/TUESDAY.  HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE
INTO THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY.

A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES WILL COME THROUGH THE FLOW FROM MONDAY
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OR
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS EACH AFTERNOON AND NIGHT.

850 TEMPERATURES INDICATE WARMER MAX TEMPERATURES WITH READINGS IN
THE UPPER 70S/LOWER 80S SUNDAY WARMING TO THE LOWER 90S
MONDAY/TUESDAY. MAX TEMPERATURES WILL COOL SOME WEDNESDAY WITH
READINGS INT HE UPPER 70S.  MIN TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE
MID/UPPER 40S SATURDAY NIGHT TO THE UPPER 50S/LOWER 60S SUNDAY NIGHT
THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1142 AM MDT WED MAY 29 2013

A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN OVER THE REGION
TODAY...ALLOWING FOR UNSTABLE CONDITIONS AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO
DEVELOP.  THUNDERSTORM INITIATION WILL OCCUR AROUND 19Z FOR KGLD AND
WILL APPROACH KMCK AROUND 21Z. THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE PRESENT
NEAR/OVER THE TAF SITES PRODUCING HEAVY RAIN...HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS.
VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL FOR BOTH TAF SITES WITH MVFR CEILINGS
IN THUNDERSTORMS. AS THE FRONT PASSES THROUGH THE REGION...WINDS
WILL SHIFT FROM THE SOUTH TO THE NORTHWEST BY 6Z.  THUNDERSTORMS
WILL MOVE OUT OF THE AREA BY 6Z WITH CEILING CONDITIONS RETURNING TO
VFR FOR BOTH TAF SITES.
