ISSUED AT 320 PM CDT TUE JUL 30 2013

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN PLACE FOR NORTHERN AND WEST CENTRAL

FOG TO BURN OFF EARLY ON WEDNESDAY BUT COOLER AIR IN BEHIND FRONT
WILL KEEP MUCH OF NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA IN COOLER TEMPERATURES.
TEMPERATURES IN LOW 80S NORTH AND UPPER 80S EXTREME SOUTHWEST.
SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE ONEILL AREA THROUGH THE
MORNING AND THEN SHIFT TO SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL LATE AFTERNOON
WITH A WEAK LOW DEVELOPING ALONG THE FRONT OVER SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 320 PM CDT TUE JUL 30 2013

A DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE INTO THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT. HAVE
INCREASED POPS TO 50 PERCENT PORTIONS OF SHERIDAN AND WRN CHERRY
COUNTY AFTER MIDNIGHT. THE NAM MODEL HAS BEEN CONSISTENT SHOWING
THIS AND THE 12Z GFS IS COMING IN LINE. THIS DISTURBANCE WILL SLOWLY
MOVE SOUTHEAST THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT. HAVE INCREASED INTO
LIKELY POPS CENTRAL AND EAST. A WEAK COLD FRONT WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL
SLOWLY LIFT NORTHEAST AS A WARM FRONT THROUGH THURSDAY
NIGHT...FURTHER AIDING IN LIFT. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE

MAINLY A SLIGHT CHANCE FRIDAY WITH INCREASING 30-40 POPS FRIDAY
NIGHT. CREST OF UPPER RIDGE AXIS TO BE ACROSS NEBR PANHANDLE AND ERN

ISSUED AT 1255 PM CDT TUE JUL 30 2013

HAVE ADDED VCTS IN THE VTN TAF BASED ON THE IDEA OF BETTER
CONVECTIVE COVERAGE ACROSS NC NEBRASKA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

LEFT OUT OF THE LBF TAF.

OTHERWISE HAVE GONE WITH MAINLY IFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE
PERIOD...THOUGH SOME CONCERN ABOUT A REDEVELOPMENT OF LOW CLOUDS
AND/OR FOG AFTER 09Z TONIGHT. THINK BETTER CHANCES FOR THIS WOULD
BE EAST OF VTN TAF SITE SINCE A SHIFT TO A NORTHERLY WIND SHOULD
