AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
321 PM CDT Mon Jul 14 2014

...Updated for the long term discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
ISSUED AT 115 PM CDT MON JUL 14 2014

Short range models indicate the large scale closed off upper level
low dropping southeast across Wisconsin into Michigan tonight while
upper level ridging breaks down across the Intermountain West. Within
the larger scale upper level trough, an H5 vort lobe is projected to
shift southeast across the Upper Midwest through early Tuesday
morning. This will help push an attendant cold front southward out
of Kansas into northern Oklahoma and the Texas panhandle this
evening. Thunderstorms developing this afternoon along and in the
vicinity of the advancing cold front may become more numerous
through early this evening as a +80kt upper level jet moves south
out of the Dakotas into Nebraska and much of western Kansas.
Steepening low/mid level lapse rates ahead of the cold front and
CAPE values in excess of 1000 J/Kg may be enough to support strong
to marginally severe thunderstorms capable of producing quarter to
golf ball size hail and wind gusts in excess of 60 mph through
late this evening. Any thunderstorms are expected to dissipate or
move southward into Oklahoma overnight with drier conditions
likely Tuesday as the cold front moves further south into the
Texas panhandle.

Below seasonal temperatures are likely tonight and Tuesday as much
cooler air filters south-southwest into western Kansas behind a
departing cold front moving into northern Oklahoma. The NAM/GFS
show H85 temperatures dropping to around 10C across central Kansas
with the mid teens(C) closer to the Colorado border. As surface
dewpoints drop well down into the 50s(F), look for lows down into
the lower to mid 50s(F) across central Kansas to near 60F closer
to the Oklahoma border. As the cooler air mass settles into
western Kansas, highs can be expected to reach only up into the
70s(F) across much of central and southwest Kansas Tuesday
afternoon.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
ISSUED AT 317 PM CDT MON JUL 14 2014

Starting Tuesday night, there will be increasing chances for rain
and a few thunderstorms, through Thursday.  A significant short wave
trough will be positioned over northern Kansas Tuesday, and develop
southwestward into southwest Kansas through Wednesday.  Along with
this upper low, a good amount of cold air near the surface will
sink into central Kansas as a high pressure area . Thus, highs on
Wednesday will only reach the mid 60s in the Scott City area, the
mid to upper 60s in the Dodge City, Garden City and Larned areas.
There will be some warm air edging north from New Mexico and the
western Texas panhandle into our far southwest corner, so I raised
maximum temperatures there for Wednesday, into the mid 70s, but
only for a small area in and around Morton county. This will place
a sharp temperature gradient to the northeast of there.  The upper
trough will still be lingering over our CWA Thursday, and
scattered thunderstorms will still be possible. Thursday does not
look too warm either, with highs in most places in the mid 70s.

The precipitation chances will end late Thursday and move off to the
east.  This will change the pattern aloft, going from a trough
pattern to the High pressure pattern, with the upper high pressure
building back northeastward from the southwestern U.S.  Our
maximum temperatures will go up, into the lower to mid 80s on
Friday, the lower to mid 90s on both Saturday and Sunday, then
rise to the mid to upper 90s by Monday. Late Saturday, there is a
lee side trough which moves into western Kansas, which brings 20
percent slight chances for thunderstorms to our far west counties.
Another short wave aloft kicks through Saturday night across
central Kansas, and 20 to 30 percent PoPs are across our eastern
2/3rds of the forecast area. This is a quick moving upper wave and
precipitation chances will be gone by Sunday and beyond.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
ISSUED AT 1200 PM CDT MON JUL 14 2014

A few thunderstorms may develop in the vicinity of KGCK and KDDC
through this evening as a cold front pushes southward across the
area. These storms may produce brief MVFR cigs/vsbys. Otherwise,
VFR conditions will prevail at all TAF sites through early Tuesday
morning. Winds will turn northeasterly 15 to 25kt this afternoon
as a cold front moves southward across western Kansas. Winds will
then subside tonight while becoming more easterly as surface high
pressure shifts southward out of the Northern Plains into Kansas
behind the departing front.
