AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
1218 PM CDT SUN MAY 19 2013

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 320 AM CDT SUN MAY 19 2013

FORECAST HIGHLIGHT (MAJOR): SVR TSRA POTENTIAL REMAINS HIGH FOR MOST
AREAS ALONG & E OF I-135 THIS AFTERNOON & TONIGHT.

UPR-DECK TROF THAT WAS DIGGING OVER GREAT BASIN EARLY SAT MORNING IS
BEHAVING MUCH AS EXPECTED BY TAKING ON STRONG NEGATIVE TILT FROM THE
CNTRL ROCKIES TO THE OK/TX PANHANDLES. THIS NEGATIVELY-TILTED UPR TROF
WILL CONTINUE TO PLAY MAJOR ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF EXCEPTIONALLY
POWERFUL SVR TSRA (ESPECIALLY OVER SE KS WHERE BETTER POSITIONED UNDER
PRONOUNCED UPR DIFFLUENCE ENHANCED BY LEFT EXIT REGION OF 60-70 KT JET
STREAK ROUNDING BASE OF THE TROF. IN RESPONSE THE SFC CYCLONE SITUATED
OVER WRN KS WILL PUSH E/NE TOWARD CNTRL KS WHICH WOULD ENABLE A STRONG
SFC DRY LINE DRAPED ACROSS ERN NM TO PUSH E ACROSS THE PANHANDLES. THE
EWD PROGRESS OF THE DRY LINE WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED CLOSELY. OVER THE
ERN PLAINS HIGH OCTANE SFC-850MB FUEL WILL SPREAD NW & NE RESPECTIVELY
ACROSS SE KS. THE GRADUALLY DISSIPATING EARLY MORNING TSRA COUPLED
WITH SFC HEATING WOULD DEFINITELY INDUCE FURTHER DESTABILIZATION. THE
CAPES FORECAST BY THE NAM & ESPECIALLY THE GFS OF 2500-4000 J/KG
COUPLED WITH THE INCREASED SHEAR SHOULD EASILY PROMOTE SUPERCELLULAR
DEVELOPMENT WITH THE DESTRUCTIVE HAIL & TORNADOES THE PRIMARY THREATS
THIS AFTERNOON & EARLY THIS EVENING. LIKE LAST NIGHT...THE PRIMARY
THREAT SHOULD TRANSITION TO DAMAGING WINDS & WITH PRECIPITABLE WATERS
INCREASING TO 125-150% OF NORMAL THE ++RA POTENTIAL WOULD ALSO
INCREASE OVER SE KS.

ON MONDAY...WITH DEEP CYCLOGENESIS HAVING ALREADY ENSUD OVER NEBRASKA
& SD THE SFC FRONT MAY STALL AS IT APPROACHES CNTRL KS. AS SUCH +TSRA
ARE LIKELY TO INCREASE OVER SE KS MON AFTERNOON & NGT. THE POTENTIAL
FOR FLOODING WOULD CERTAINLY INCREASE OVER SE KS. IN FACT A FLOOD
WATCH MAY BE REQUIRED FOR SE KS MON NGT. AS THE NRN PLAINS CYCLONE
OCCLUDES TUE MORNING DEEPENING SW-WLY FLOW SHOULD ENABLE SHRA/TSRA TO
END OVER SE KS TUE AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 320 AM CDT SUN MAY 19 2013

AFTER A 2-DAY INTERMISSION SCT -SHRA/-TSRA SHOULD RETURN TO THE REGION
WED NGT WITH CHANCES STEADILY INCREASING FROM THU ONWARD. THE CULPRIT
IS A 2ND MID-LVL SHORTWAVE THAT'LL MOVE SE AROUND THE BASE OF THE MID
LVL LOW. WITH THIS SCENARIO HAVING CHANGED LITTLE OVER THE PAST 3-4
RUNS THE INHERITED FORECAST HAS BEEN KEPT INTACT.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1211 PM CDT SUN MAY 19 2013

SCATTERED SEVERE CONVECTION IS EXPECTED ALONG AND AHEAD OF A
DRY-LINE AND COLD FRONT LATER THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING
FOR LOCATIONS ALONG/EAST OF THE I-135 CORRIDOR. CHANCES WILL
DIMINISH BY EARLY EVENING ALONG A SALINA TO WICHITA LINE BUT
CONTINUE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS.
SEVERE WIND GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL ARE EXPECTED WITH THE SUPER-
CELL STORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS WITH TORNADOES POSSIBLE.
THE GUSTY SOUTH WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST AND DIMINISH
TONIGHT BEHIND THE DRY-LINE AND FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS.
WHILE MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THRU THE FORECAST
VALID PERIOD...PERIODS OF MVFR AND IFR CAN BE EXPECTED IN AND
NEAR THE CONVECTION. THIS WILL BE HANDLED WITH SHORT TERM
AMENDMENTS AS CONVECTION LOOKS MORE IMMINENT.
