AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
115 AM CDT MON APR 28 2014

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 712 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

ALL HEADLINES FOR THIS EVENING HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO EXPIRE...AND
EXPECT WINDS TO SLOWLY TRANSITION AND BECOME NORTHWESTERLY
OVERNIGHT AS THE RESPONSIBLE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TRACKS EASTWARD
ACROSS THE STATE OF NEBRASKA.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 614 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

WE CONT TO CANCEL THE TOR WATCH. THE LAST OF THE TSTMS WILL BE N
OF THE FCST AREA SHORTLY. SO EXPECT THE REST OF THE WATCH TO BE
CANCELLED WITHIN THE HOUR.

VISIBLE SATELLITE IS AMAZING. THE LOW IS JUST S OF MCCOOK AND
DRIFTING E WITH SOME MID-LEVEL SPRINKLES. A SURGE OF BLOWING DUST
IS WRAPPING CYCLONICALLY AROUND THE LOW /ACROSS KS/ AND THEN UP
TOWARD THE NEB-KS BORDER. VISIBILITIES HAVE BEEN AS LOW AT 2 1/2
MILES.

EXPECT SPRINKLES TO DISSIPATE 7PM-9PM WITH LOSS OF DAYTIME
HEATING.

THX FOR ALL THE REPORTS. PLEASE PASS ALONG ANY PHOTOS OF HAIL/
TORNADOES OR WIND DAMAGE VIA FACEBOOK OR TWITTER.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 311 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

ESSENTIALLY DEEP VERTICALLY-STACKED LOW WILL VERY SLOWLY CROSS
NEB TONIGHT-TOMORROW. TSTM THREAT WILL END WITH LOSS OF DAYTIME
HEATING THIS EVENING. WINDY AND MUCH COOLER TOMORROW UNDER WRAP-
AROUND MOISTURE. SPOTTY LIGHT SHWRS WILL ROTATE THRU N AND W OF
THE TRI-CITIES...UNTIL AFTERNOON WHEN THE THREAT FOR A BRIEF SHWR
WILL EXPAND TO JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE.

RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT THRU 7 PM THIS EVENING.

A WIND ADVISORY WAS ISSUED S AND W OF THE TRI-CITIES 6AM-12AM
TOMORROW. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR SOME COUNTIES TO BE UPGRADED TO A
HIGH WIND WARNING BASED ON MOS. THIS NEEDS FURTHER EVALUATION BY
THE MID SHIFT.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 311 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

GUIDANCE FROM THE NAM...OPERATIONAL GFS AND EC ALL SUGGEST A
LARGE UPPER TROPOSPHERIC TROUGH WILL LINGER OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THIS TROUGH IS THEN EXPECTED TO FINALLY MOVE
OFF TO THE EAST/NORTHEAST STARTING WEDNESDAY AS AN UPPER
TROPOSPHERIC LONGWAVE RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE WESTERN CONUS...THUS
RESULTING IN NORTHWESTERLY UPPER TROPOSPHERIC FLOW OVER OUR AREA
TO FINISH THE LONG TERM FORECAST PERIOD. AT THE SURFACE...A
PERSISTENT AREA OF LOW BAROMETRIC PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE
INTO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY ON TUESDAY...AND LINGER OVER THE UPPER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND GREAT LAKES REGION THROUGH MUCH OF THE LONG
TERM FORECAST PERIOD...THUS RESULTING IN NORTHWESTERLY LOWER
TROPOSPHERIC FLOW ACROSS OUR AREA.

SEVERAL SMALL-SCALE UPPER TROPOSPHERIC PERTURBATIONS...MOVING
SOUTH/SOUTHEAST ALONG THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER TROPOSPHERIC
TROUGH...COULD POTENTIALLY BRING PRECIPITATION TO OUR AREA MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...A SOLUTION SUPPORTED BY QPF FIELDS FROM THE
NAM...OPERATIONAL GFS...EC AND SREF-MEAN. GIVEN ALL THIS...WENT
AHEAD WITH 20-60% POPS ACROSS THE CWA MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...WITH
THE HIGHEST POPS DISTRIBUTED ACROSS MOST ALL OF THE CWA TUESDAY
MORNING WHICH IS WHEN THE STRONGEST OMEGA IS EXPECTED TO RESIDE
OVER THE AREA. HEADING INTO WEDNESDAY...AS THE UPPER TROPOSPHERIC
TROUGH FINALLY BEGINS MOVING AWAY FROM THE AREA...OMEGA SHOULD
DIMINISH SIGNIFICANTLY...BUT AN OCCASIONAL UPPER TROPOSPHERIC
PERTURBATION MOVING ALONG THE BACK SIDE OF THE TROUGH COULD
PROMOTE PRECIPITATION WEDNESDAY NIGHT ONWARD...AND ALLBLEND
RESPONDED BY PROVIDED PERIODIC 20-30% POPS AT VARIOUS POINTS
ACROSS THE CWA WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY. THESE POPS WERE
LEFT UNCHANGED FOR THE MOST PART.

AS FOR THE POPS TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY...A MUCH COOLER LOWER
TROPOSPHERIC AIR MASS WILL LIKELY HELP PROMOTE LITTLE IF ANY
POTENTIAL INSTABILITY AND AS A RESULT...CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY IS
NOT CURRENTLY EXPECTED WITH ANY PRECIPITATION THAT IS REALIZED
TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THE SAME CAN ALSO BE SAID FOR
PRECIPITATION CHANGES LATER ON IN THE LONG TERM FORECAST PERIOD.

AS THE SURFACE LOW BEGINS MOVING INTO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY ON
TUESDAY...HIGH BAROMETRIC PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO ACCELERATE INTO
PORTIONS OF THE PLAINS. THIS SHOULD RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT LOWER
TROPOSPHERIC PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE AREA ON TUESDAY...A
SOLUTION SUPPORTED BY THE NAM AND OPERATIONAL GFS. GUIDANCE FROM
THE MET/NAM AND MAV/GFS CURRENTLY SUGGEST A 25-30KT SUSTAINED WIND
WILL BE REALIZED ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA ON TUESDAY...WITH
LOCATIONS ACROSS OUR EXTREME WESTERN CWA PERHAPS APPROACHING
35KTS. IN ADDITION TO THE STRONG LOWER TROPOSPHERIC PRESSURE
GRADIENT...FORECAST PROXIMITY SOUNDINGS FROM ACROSS THE CWA...PER
THE NAM AND OPERATIONAL GFS...SUGGEST THE BOUNDARY LAYER HEIGHT ON
TUESDAY WILL CLIMB INTO THE 2000-4000FT AGL RANGE ACROSS THE
CWA...WHICH IS WHERE A 45-55KT WIND WILL BE WAITING FOR TRANSPORT
TO THE SURFACE. ASSUMING SOME LOSS IN MAGNITUDE DURING MOMENTUM
TRANSFER TO THE SURFACE SUGGESTS A 40-50KT GUST POTENTIAL WILL
STILL EXIST TUESDAY...WITH THE STRONGEST GUST POTENTIAL EXISTING
ACROSS OUR WEST/SOUTHWESTERN CWA WHERE BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING WILL
BE DEEPEST. GIVEN ALL THIS...WILL CONTINUE THE MENTION OF STRONG
WIND IN THE HWO FOR THE ENTIRE CWA FOR TUESDAY.

PERSISTENT NORTHWESTERLY LOWER TROPOSPHERIC FLOW AND RESULTANT
COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL KEEP TEMPERATURE READINGS ON THE COOL SIDE
THROUGH MUCH OF THE LONG TERM FORECAST PERIOD...WITH GUIDANCE
SUGGESTING HIGHS IN THE 40S AND 50S TUESDAY...IN THE 50S WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY...AND MORE INTO THE 60S TO FINISH THE FORECAST
PERIOD. OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURE READINGS IN THE 30S TO NEAR 40
ARE CURRENTLY EXPECTED THROUGH MUCH OF THE LONG TERM FORECAST
PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 103 AM CDT MON APR 28 2014

THE WIND WILL BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE EARLY THIS MORNING...PRIOR TO
DAWN WITH THE SFC LOW NEARLY RIGHT OVERHEAD. HOWEVER...AS THE SFC
LOW SLIPS OFF TO THE EAST EXPECT THE WIND TO INCREASE FIRST FROM
THE WEST AND THEN NORTHWEST AFTER DAWN. THE WIND WILL BE
ESPECIALLY STRONG THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING OUT OF THE NORTHWEST
WITH SOME GUSTS TO NEAR 45 MPH. ALSO EXPECT TO SEE LOW CLOUDS
MOVING IN LATER THIS MORNING. CEILINGS LATER THIS MORNING MAY VARY
SOME BETWEEN VFR AND MVFR AND WILL LEAN TOWARDS PREVAILING MVFR
CEILINGS BY THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
