AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
235 AM CDT Thu Jun 5 2014

...Updated for Long Term...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
ISSUED AT 145 PM CDT WED JUN 4 2014

Severe thunderstorms are the main challenge in the forecast late
tonight. We have bumped up POPs to categorical (80 percent or
higher) in the areas mainly between Jetmore and Hays. It is still
fairly unclear exactly how the event will unfold overnight, however
the strongest signal in the various mesoscale model solutions is
that as storms approach the western Kansas border during the late
evening hours, they will start to organize into a more organized
cluster of strong/severe storms as warm frontogenesis increases
markedly after 06Z Thursday. The NAM12, in particular, is suggesting
strongest convective development initiating around 700-750mb where
lifted parcels from this level will have as much as 2000 to perhaps
3000 J/kg CAPE. The directional shear environment will be very
favorable for vigorous severe thunderstorm updrafts, most likely
supercells initially.  There will eventually be a transition toward
a quasi-linear mode where 65 to 75mph thunderstorm wind gusts will
become the more dominant threat. Orientation of the frontogenetic
zone with forward motion of storms to the east-southeast would
suggest a very heavy rainfall threat as well...with over 2 inches of
rain quite likely along a narrow corridor where the most numerous
storms train over some of the same general areas. The severe weather
threat will shift deeper into central Kansas by daybreak, so will
taper the POPs off by 12Z. Cooler northeast winds will be found in
the wake of the mesoscale convective system on Thursday. The front
at the surface Thursday will be far enough south from Kansas to
preclude any surface-based thunderstorm threat during the late
afternoon/early evening hours.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
ISSUED AT 233 AM CDT THU JUN 5 2014

For Friday, another round of thunderstorms looks likely by late
afternoon into the evening and overnight with good moist upslope
flow level flow and some upper level disturbances moving out of the
Rockies. Some heavy rainfall and severe thunderstorms are possible
with widespread QPF of over an inch.

For the Weekend, more thunderstorms are possible mainly across the
south part of southwest and west central Kansas with more upper
level shortwaves in almost zonal flow aloft along with a continued
moist upslope regime. The strongest upper level trough moves across
western Kansas on Sunday night into Monday morning with the new
ECMWF showing the best chances for thunderstorms and probably a
severe MCS (Mesoscale Convective Complex).

For the period of Monday into Wednesday, thunderstorm chances
decrease until Wednesday and Wednesday night with another
disturbance.

High temperatures will be fairly cool for June standards into the
middle of next week with highs in the low to mid 80s. The coolest
day looks to be Sunday with highs only in the 70s. Overnight lows
will be mild in the 60s through Saturday morning, then around 60
through the middle of next week.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night)
ISSUED AT 1200 AM CDT THU JUN 5 2014

Main concern is watching convection across eastern Colorado in the short
term. Radar trends and mesoscale model trends support main flight impacts
to KHYS in the 08Z-10Z time frame. An outflow boundary could impact
KGCK/KDDC, but most of the TSRA should be just to KHYS. MVFR cigs will
prevail through morning with VFR by noon or so.
