AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

1203 AM CDT THU JUN 12 2014

.AVIATION...06Z TAFS

NNE WINDS BEHIND A COLD FRONT WILL BE GUSTY FROM TIME TO TIME
OVERNIGHT AND INTO THE MORNING HOURS. MVFR BASED LOW CLOUDS STILL
SEEM PLAUSIBLE AT ALL SITES THIS MORNING THOUGH UPSTREAM OBS SHOW
FORMATION TO BE SLOW SO FAR. WINDS WILL EVENTUALLY VEER AROUND TO THE
EAST AND WEAKEN LATE IN THE TAF PERIOD.

SIMPSON

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 701 PM CDT WED JUN 11 2014/

AVIATION...00Z TAFS

THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AT KGUY FOR THE FIRST FEW HOURS OF THE
TAF PERIOD AND HAVE INCLUDED A TEMPO GROUP TO ACCOUNT. HAVE STAYED
OPTIMISTIC AT KDHT AND KAMA WITH RESPECT TO THUNDER...BUT MAY HAVE TO
AMEND LATER.

A COLD FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH ALL SITES TURNING WINDS TO THE NORTH
AND THEN NE. WINDS WILL BE GUSTY FOR A PERIOD TOMORROW MORNING AND
LOW CLOUDS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE. LOW CLOUDS SHOULD SCATTER OUT TOMORROW
AFTERNOON WITH WINDS ALSO LESSENING.

SIMPSON

UPDATE...

ISSUED A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR THE NORTHERN PANHANDLES AND
UPDATED THE GRIDS/ZONES TO REFLECT CURRENT RADAR RETURNS. THINK
DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT WITH THESE STORMS.

SIMPSON

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 428 PM CDT WED JUN 11 2014/

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT
VIS SATELLITE IMAGERY IS INDICATING A GROWING CU FIELD OVER EASTERN
NEW MEXICO AND SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO NEAR A DIFFUSE DRYLINE NEAR THE
NEW MEXICO/TEXAS BORDER. THE ATMOSPHERE HAS BECOME INCREASING MORE
UNSTABLE THIS AFTERNOON /ALTHOUGH NOTE THAT THE 5000 J/KG CAPE IN THE
SOUTHERN TEXAS PANHANDLE IS ERRONEOUS/ AND A WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCE
CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS THE FOUR CORNERS REGION WILL CONTINUE TO AID
IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF STORMS OVER EASTERN NEW MEXICO AND SOUTHEASTERN
COLORADO. STORMS WILL MOVE INTO THE BETTER INSTABILITY OVER THE TEXAS
AND OKLAHOMA PANHANDLES THIS EVENING. AS THE UPPER DISTURBANCE
CROSSES THE AREA...STORMS SHOULD INCREASE IN COVERAGE. ALSO AIDING IN
THE POTENTIAL FOR STORMS WILL BE THE ADVANCEMENT OF A COLD FRONT THAT
IS CURRENTLY STRETCHED ACROSS NORTHERN KANSAS. STORMS WILL LIKELY
CONGEAL INTO A MCS THAT WILL MOVE ACROSS KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA LATE
TONIGHT. MAIN HAZARDS FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS AND
HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF GOLF BALLS.

LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
SHOULD SEE A LULL IN STORM CHANCES FOR MUCH OF THURSDAY AS
SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE DEPARTING SHORTWAVE TROUGH SPREADS ACROSS THE
AREA WHILE AN UPPER RIDGE AMPLIFIES OVER THE FOUR CORNERS REGION.
HOWEVER SOME CONVECTION MAY DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS IN NEW MEXICO
IN THE POST-FRONTAL UPSLOPE FLOW AND MOVE INTO THE NORTHWEST ZONES
THURSDAY NIGHT. OTHERWISE IT WILL BE COOLER WITH STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT. SHOULD SEE BRISK NORTHERLY
WINDS INITIALLY ONCE THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH BUT WINDS WILL
QUICKLY SETTLE DOWN IN THE AFTERNOON.

THE CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL LOOKS A LITTLE BETTER ON FRIDAY AS LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL INCREASE NORTHWARD INTO THE AREA FRIDAY ON SOUTHERLY
WINDS DOWNSTREAM OF A SURFACE TROUGH. AN UPPER TROUGH WILL DIG INTO
THE INTER MOUNTAIN WEST WITH AN UPPER DISTURBANCE PASSING NEARBY
WHICH CAN SPARK SOME STORMS MAINLY TOWARD FRIDAY NIGHT WHEN THE
INFLUX OF MOISTURE WILL BE MAXIMIZED WHILE A LOW LEVEL JET SETS UP
ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTIES IN THE CONVECTION
POTENTIAL OVER THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE THE NWP MODELS
SUGGEST A SLOSHING DRYLINE THROUGH MUCH OF THE PERIOD WITH
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT. THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LOW WILL PASS TOO
FAR NORTH OF THE AMA CWA TO HAVE MUCH OF AN EFFECT ON THE CONVECTION
POTENTIAL ALTHOUGH IT WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA SUNDAY.
THIS FRONT WILL NOT HAVE MUCH OF AN EFFECT ON THE SENSIBLE WEATHER
ACROSS THE AREA AS IT WILL ONLY KNOCK TEMPS DOWN A FEW DEGREES /UPPER
80S TO LOW 90S AS OPPOSED TO LOWER TO MID 90S SATURDAY/. MEDIUM RANGE
MODELS ARE STARTING TO SHOW SIGNS OF INCREASING PRECIP CHANCES TOWARD
THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK LIKELY TIED TO TROPICAL MOISTURE FROM
CHRISTINA BUT WILL AWAIT FURTHER CLARIFICATION FROM THE MODELS
BEFORE INSERTING POPS IN FOR THIS PERIOD. OTHERWISE THE WEEK WILL
START OF DRY AND HOT WITH TEMPS REMAINING IN THE 90S.

CLK

FIRE WEATHER...
DESPITE AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES DIPPING BELOW 20 PERCENT
ACROSS THE WESTERN TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE SATURDAY THROUGH
