AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
415 AM CDT Sat Jun 28 2014

...Updated synopsis, short and long term discussions...

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 413 AM CDT SAT JUN 28 2014

The 00z upper air analysis showed a 90 knot 250 millibar jet
extending from Oregon into northeast New Mexico. Broad upper level
troughing was in place from the Pacific Northwest into the central
and southern High Plains. A shortwave trough was moving across
eastern Colorado and New Mexico. Widespread thunderstorm activity
was slowly propagating southeast over central and southwest Kansas
early this morning. This activity was pushing an outflow boundary
south across southwest Kansas. Moist southerly low level flow was
riding up over the boundary and helping sustain the thunderstorm
complex.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
ISSUED AT 413 AM CDT SAT JUN 28 2014

Latest radar trends show the thunderstorm complex starting to weaken
somewhat. RAP 850 wind analysis has indicated a low level jet from
the Texas panhandle extending up into far southwest Kansas which has
been helping sustain the overnight convection. Latest progs show the
low level jet veering through the remainder of the early morning
hours which should help usher the complex eastward into central
Kansas. Will keep some high chance pops going over central Kansas
through the morning hours but the precipitation should come to an
end as the mid level shortwave moves east of the region. The models
continue to keep the low level boundary lingering in south central
Kansas later this afternoon. There could be some additional
thunderstorm development later this afternoon/early evening along
the boundary if it does get hung up in that area but with the upper
level dynamics shifting off to the east, any thunderstorm activity
should diminish fairly early this evening with the remainder of the
night staying dry.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
ISSUED AT 413 AM CDT SAT JUN 28 2014

Upper level westerly flow lifts into the northern part of the
country on Sunday. The westerly flow will result in a surface low
pressure trough in the lee of the Rockies. A weak fast moving
shortwave trough will push east through the northern plains. This
could bring a few showers and thunderstorms to the area around I-70
during the afternoon and evening.

A cold front will push south across western Kansas Monday afternoon
and night as a strong shortwave moves through the northern Plains.
Low level moisture will continue to stream northward into the
central Plains and impinge on the front, bringing another round of
thunderstorms to much of southwest Kansas. With saturated soil
conditions from tonight's and previous days rains, flood and/or
flash flood headlines may be necessary.

The models show the front moving far enough south to bring a break
in rainfall across Southwest Kansas by Tuesday night into Wednesday.
Later in the week, upper level ridging will build from the western
states into the central part of the country. We should see a trend
toward somewhat warmer temperatures along with continued small
chances for thunderstorms through Friday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night)
ISSUED AT 102 AM CDT SAT JUN 28 2014

Clusters of thunderstorms will track east across central and
southwest Kansas through the early morning hours. Expect variable
and gusty winds along with MVFR visibilities in moderate to heavy
rain at the TAF sites as the storms move through. Conditions will
be improving across the area after 10z as the area of storms moves
east. There could be some MVFR visibility reductions in mist
around sunrise. While some uncertainty exists on areal coverage
and location, there could be additional thunderstorms developing
after 21z at Hays and Dodge City.
